Superpowers – I've been trying to get the power of Levitation for years.
Normally when I can't get off the couch I blame my failure on this Superpower.

I find lesbians mostly invisable

Whoa, lesbians have super-powers? Ace.

A guy I didn't know (school gates can be weird places) once told me that he told his kids not to look at 'those people'. This led to a satisfyingly ironic conversation about how easy it is to spot gay…

I find lesbians mostly invisable, except for my cousin and then she's not a lesbian, she's my cousin.

She's the one who has experienced the most domestic violence from her various partners than anyone else I know.

The TVNZ Charter seems to have 'forgotten' their obligation to this community. What…

Speaking of Wikipedia entries on musicians: up until a fortnight ago the occupations listed for Australian alt.country Kasey Chambers were "singer-songwriter, musician, lesbian".
I put this to her during an interview to be published in the Herald in advance of her Kings Arms concert with her husband Shane Nicholson (August…

I saw Ladyhawke in a small Hoxton club about three or so weeks back and I had a pretty good time. They started off a little slow but soon the audience was well into them. I would definately recommend them as a live act.

Me neither.

Been around for officially licensed stuff for a while now.

I have no where else to post this and just have to, besides it's Friday- San Francisco just qualified Prop W for the presidential ballot – it will rename the "Oceanside Water Pollution Control Plant" to be the "George W. Bush Sewage Plant"

sometimes revenge is not sweet it is…

Paid content is to consumer generated media like Pacifier is to Shihad

What, not as good as the Datsuns whatever they call themselves?

Ladyhawke is nice enough, but did you see the Feist/Sesame street video down the page.

Wow. Educational & cute as a button. Mini-crush. Colour me a fan-boy etc...

She played the park just round the corner from me the other night. Beautiful show.

As far as I can tell, a better version can be found on the Hype Machine.

Ah. Well spotted.

There is something ridiculously cute about hearing French in such a New Zealand accent, although it did rub for a few seconds as my brain tried to understand that seeming non-sequitur. As far as I can tell, a better version can be found on the Hype Machine.
