Well they could live for a week or 2 from the debris in the carpet.

In the past, I had watched his show on the other channel, but after a while it became very, very repetitive. I was rather surprised when the ABC took him on. No new ideas, just poach whatever they can. In any case, I find the show very light on content and I usually have far better things to do. I can overcome my preferences in hair/beard styles if the information content makes it worthwhile.

I like the sort of places that have been visited since he's taken over - I'm more into trying to eat out of my garden than have a showplace garden with well trimmed edges.

He used to say the same thing about one of my hairy boyfriends from my dim distant youth. That hairy boyfriend means that I know how to spot clean hair and beards on very hairy males. If the hair shines, it's clean. Costa's hair and beard is scrupulously clean. I wish I could say the same thing about the skin of some middle aged bald pates I've seen.

Nah. The Prime Minister's policies are wrong because her arse is too big. Or so I have been told by people who ought to know. The same logic tells us the leader of the opposition cannot be right because his ears flap in a wind and he wears budgie smugglers. No doubt Costa could gain a bunch of IQ points by shaving. D

Here was I thinking he wasn't too bright because of his desperate hunt to possess the poisoned chalice that would apply to anyone in the PMs position in the current House. If he was brighter he might just sit back and wait till he can get a clear majority. No doubt Costa could gain a bunch of IQ > points by shaving. Dunno 'bout that. His hairness makes one notice how nice his eyes are, says she dragging her toe through the sand.........

I have turned off...... ........ I always use a PVR for TV and so I can always avoid the hairy gypsy-Gurus. They're swarming on TV now; what with endless contrived cooking shows, travelogues (blond bimbos), and history lectures from Egypt to British coasts in which the talking head and the arm-waving Robbie the Robot effectively blocks the screen with its huge mug. What a rip off: behind all these bright technicolored "shows" lurk clever marketeers using the latest techniques to open the wallets. Does it ever rain on these shows? The sun always shines and the mug always smiles. In the good old days we had Jesus & Paul of Tarsus; and so on and on it goes....
