Shona beat me to Fiji Baby, so keeping with the Hamiltron love - Inspector Moog, from Ringburner "Korma will have revenge, you haven't heard the end"
As for artists, rope in Greg Page.

Geoff, yes but no. I'd love to go, and thanks for the offer, but I have an unavoidable previous engagement - one's wife only turns 40 once...

Speaking of MS, is anyone else (apart from Ben Gracewood) at Tech Ed?
So, just me then? The Kool Aid really is quite tasty...

"Prostitution is a combination of sex and commerce. Which of these are you opposed to?"
There are occupations that you boast about at those hypothetical cocktail parties, there are those that you mention in passing, and then there are the ones where you try and change the subject: prostitute, IRD Auditor, proctologist, bin man (person), etc.
Doesn't mean they aren't useful professions that add value to society, and may well be a source of pride and enjoyment for the worker.
A friend of mine's wife is an auditor for the IRD. He tends not to mention it casually, not because he's ashamed of her and what she does, but because of the snide reactions he generally gets. It's not worth the hassle.

I feel I really have to say here... I love my leather jacket, and I wear it all the time.
No, really. I bought it new about 15 years ago, and it took about 10 years to get properly worn in. Its really thick leather, weighs approximately half a cow, and would probably stop, if not a bullet, then at least a knife. Its cut conservatively enough to wear with a shirt & tie, but works equally well with jeans & tee.

Oh do tell where you got the DVDs Craig!
Unless it was from JB, cause then you're anti-union :-)

Is no one going to mention underarm bowling then?

Don't you think he's playing to win, though, Russell? I get that distinct feeling.
In the absence of a McGillicuddy candidate, I don't think any of them are playing to lose.

Somebody told me recently about a surgeon who tastefully referred to cyclists as "donors"
I believe the medic in question was referring to motorcyclists as donor cycles. And I'm pretty sure it was an article in The Listener.
& Ross Mason - I'm pretty sure Gio was referring to compulsory seatbelts not putting people off using cars.
