How did Salman Rushdie get such a hot wife? Was it because of the fatwa pronounced on him made him a man of danger? Now that hes been made a knight and he has to act responsibly shes leaving him.

Big ship blocks view

Rusty Crow is to get another big ship parked outside his house. The USS Kitty Hawk is in town this week blocking the view from his apartment just like the Queen Mary did. Guess it beats the shitbox cars that get parked outside my house.

And bad luck if you live in Wooloomooloo or East Sydney as the 30,000 odd of you wont be able to park outside your houses (not that you do, as the crime rates so high).
