Fire it up with the Trump

With few late nighters even watching television, quality is ever at a questionable state of mind. Riffing on the success and format of The Apprentice is My Big Fat Obnoxious Boss.

With a Mr N. Paul Todd standing in the place of Donald Trump, and a fictitious IOCOR the place to be upon billions and billions, there is nothing more here than a con. Big time. Relatively speaking.

The Trump has his, "You're Fired!"
The Todd has "Get the hell out of my office!"

Both have hair. Reputedly in the former case. What kind of hair looks like the crop atop the crown of the Trump anyway?

Concrete plaster? Bobblehead says yes.
Pelt? Head knocker nods affirmative.
Mystery insane? All signs point to yes!

 
 

Sense of reality cracks under pressured red waters

With nothing but the skin of dry meat sauce to hold onto, the first week of May held strong on talk over red and black numbers. Nothing but the ring of budgets.

There was the leaking of information from the Brack's government outline in Victoria that was later denied to be misinformed and not quite there.

Later on, NSW Premier Bob Carr hit back with some legal advice in his gloves against Federal Treasurer Costello taking the state to the back and whipping it up some over their GST allocation.

Nothing but the precursor for a cautious Federal budget to hit the lands. Hands and mines in the red.

So fearful of actual analysis over their numbers, media outside the mainstream were locked out and uninvited from the proceedings.


Back to sense and the comics, from the new Wildstorm mini, Matador: "Dismissed as a quota minority hire by her work peers, Cuban-born and Florida-bred Detective Isabel Cardona makes no friends on the Miami force by insisting that a series of seemingly unrelated murder cases lead to an urban-legend killer known only as "The Matador." Proving his existence soon becomes her only way to prove her sanity -- but how close to the dangerous Matador will Cardona have to get to make that happen?"
