My Blog And Other Random Musings








So here is my blogspot, as you would know by now it's called shot down before my prime. Why did I choose this name? It was the lyrics from the song that was in my head at the time, I think the song is called 'Headfirst For Halos' by My Chemical Romance off the album 'I Bought You My Bullets, You Bought Me Your Love' this is the album cover below if you are interested.








SO after posting some mildly amusing things on facebook, which really only people from around here would find funny, I decided to create my own blog. Actually it was after my 'You Know When You Are From Ararat...' list that I put on facebook got picked up by someone and became internet spam that I though my own blog was due. I hope to keep this fairly up to date, but I am lazy so I may not. The topics will be random, maybe whatever's in the news, music, movies and tv, sport, some feeble attempt at humor and of course, local stuff that's happening in the Ararat Rural City region, so if you're keen to see what my random musings are then check them out, if not, then you are a clever person who would rather not waste the portoin of time it takes to read these and rather do something constructive. If so I applaud your good judgement.





Anyways, enough of the intro crap, onto the i'm sure highly anticipated random musings.









The Golden Gateway Festival is in full swing... I know, I can't believe i'm here on the computer when I could be out enjoying everything the festival has to offer like...um...well, there's that free lunchtime concert featuring Rodney Vincent.







Yes. Rodney Vincent. First of all I can't believe there are pictures of this guy on the net, and second of all, In my satirical pics I posted in the 2008 Golden Gateway Ball Event on facebook, I had a picture of the Delltones with the sarcastic 'The hippest bands play the Golden Gateway Ball' line. I seriously didn't think that could be outlamed but sure enough, the show society did it. I mean come on Rodney Vincent??? Really???? At least people still pay to see the Delltones, this guy has to put on FREE CONCERTS to bring the punters in. My next blog will be all about the Golden Gateway Festival, but this had to be mentioned.




I am a Simpsons fan, but seriously, it's lost it. At least they aren't shoving the Rich Texan and Lindsey neagle down our throats every episode anymore.



Seriously, I fucking hate these characters. And no Family Guy is not better. I like Family Guy too, but watch the 'Cartoon Wars Parts1 & 2' of Southpark and you'll see them satirise Family Guy to a t.

Great excitment here atm with the news that the Australian Prime Minister Mr Rudd may actually be paying a visit to the country that elected him.

I don't get Crocs, i'm sorry but I never will.

Check out this great website: http://www.bushorchimp.com/

That's it for now. I'll be back soon with more stupid crap. probably pictures with try hard captions or something.

Hey - thanks for starting a blog...makes for a good read...what's your opinion of American Dad?

Gareth said...

Thanks for the kind words katherine, I like American Dad also. The jokes have more storyline relevence IMO than Family Guy. I still reckon Family Guy is great though. As for King Of The Hill, well, that unfunny shit can get the hell out of my life.

King Of The Hill can go to hell. It is one of the worst shows on TV. I hear the music start and can't find the remote to change the channel quick enough!!
