FAMILY FIRST
Webdiary is open for business, minus retiree Margo. Check out the ad they’re currently running.
AAAAIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!
Looks like a creature of legend from this part of America......after serious facial removal surgery.
Posted by The_Real_JeffS on 2005 12 14 at 06:45 PM • permalinkSorry, that should be “... facial HAIR removal surgery…”
Although maybe the original is appropriate as well…..
Posted by The_Real_JeffS on 2005 12 14 at 06:46 PM • permalinkO/T does anyone remember Spek
well he has now made his own blog
Something tells me he may not like me, and that this could lead to fun in the future given his last cameo
I can see where Margo get her looks from, ... Hey maybe we should put Margo’s mum, and Margo for that matter on hot or not. Let the people decide, that’s what democracy is all about ... right? …
I’m stunned. Margolia has morphed into the Oceania Institute of Nepotism.
And if someone can get a comment through, tell them the cult worship thing will go on much better if she would bathe and brush out that stringy hair. A bit of digital blur wouldn’t hurt either.
Come on, do it for Mum. She’s picking up the tab for the hot water and lights anyway.
#5: How appropriate that spek has chosen the same colour template as the Iraq War Wrong spoof blog.
I just love his intro: “I’m pretty new to letter writing…” Why am I reminded of clueless college kids getting their first internet connection and proceeding to infest Usenet, circa 1992?
“That ain’t no woman! It’s a man, man!”

Well if you’re going to keep one as a pet, Mospact, you’d better make sure you keep it fed and clean up after him.After all a pet is for life, not just for Christmas.

Posted by The Thin Man Returns on 2005 12 14 at 08:34 PM • permalink#13 lol, ... do i have to feed him? (thinks to self) i wonder what moon bats eat?
Maybe he could be more of a pinata. i don’t mind cleaning up after those.
I mean i wouldn’t want to have to spend a night in the woods because i tried to dispose of him.
#14 Well, you know how Andrea has a big sign up that says “Do Not Feed The Trolls”? When you have your own pet moonbat, you need to feed them regularly - so keep up with what you were doing earlier this week.
But if you have to get rid of him, make sure you do it humanely or give him to a good home.
DO NOT, under any circumstances, try to flush him down the toilet.

Posted by The Thin Man Returns on 2005 12 14 at 08:49 PM • permalinkWell, I for one think it’s very nice that Margo and Hamish’s mom purchased an advertisement to wish them well. A very sweet thing to do.
But I do also wonder if Margo has one, just one decent photo to post. It might go a long way to lending a bit of credibility to the blog, even though Margo has left it. Doesn’t she have a nice high school senior class picture? A prom picture? A strip of zany snap shots from the $3 for three photos booth at the mall?
In 46 years on earth she doesn’t have one good photo?
Posted by wronwright on 2005 12 14 at 09:03 PM • permalinkI just went to spek’s blog and read Nick and Nora’s comment. They had a photo above it. The photo was of William Powell and Myrna Loy.
They’ve used that photo before, I believe at the fake Margo blog. I always thought that was them. Quite a dashing looking couple. Quite debonair.
I can be an absolute dunderhead sometimes.
(I also thought arbed nilknarf was possibly an Arabic name).
Posted by wronwright on 2005 12 14 at 09:09 PM • permalinki just did a google image serch of Margolia and this is what i found... there is something not quite right about this or this
but she does look better as a man
back to my sugestion of putting margolia on hot or not. we could do some sort of experiment, listing her simultaneously as a man and a woman, and see which one gets a higher score on, my money is Man
#20 The photo was of William Powell and Myrna Loy.
No, wronwright, it’s Nicky and I - the similarity is striking though.

Posted by SwinishCapitalist on 2005 12 14 at 09:43 PM • permalinkO/T I posted today on the Herald Sun’s site (Link here) is an article by Prof Rob Watts (head of the social science program at RMIT). Watts says when referring to the an opening to the debate in which he acknowledged the traditional custodians of the land he was just complying with the “law of the land”.
What law?
#22. Put up a warning first! Lucky for my keyboard I don’t drink coffee!
Posted by Nilknarf Arbed on 2005 12 14 at 10:49 PM • permalinkO/T spek has put up a new post,
For some time now the Lebanese in Sydney have suffered heavy handed policing similar to that applied to Aboriginal people in country towns throughout the state - not only has this not achieved anything except making these communities feel under siege but has also increased the level of resentment leading to further boisterous behavior in public places and continued the cycles of division in the community.
needless to say i object,
i left a good comment on his page , worth a read especially in relation to his attempt to link with the aboriginal comunity.
#32—Cripes, every time I decide that the moonbats couldn’t possibly depart further from reality, they prove me wrong.
Posted by Evil Pundit on 2005 12 14 at 11:25 PM • permalinkWebdiary contributor Richard Tonkin thinks Halliburton is pulling the strings again:
“Twelve hundred paratroopers are being moved to Adelaide. The paratroopers, currently based at Holsworthy in NSW (where they’re building new barracks) are being moved to Adelaide to form the Second Mechanised Battalion. The First Mechanised Battalion is at the other end of the Halliburton-controlled railway line in Darwin…Jesus Wept. How many pieces of the jigsaw do we need?”
Why sure, it all fits!
#34: Halliburton-controlled railway line in Darwin = true! lol

Captain, What a classic.
Only aggressive cosmetic surgery could cure that, even then she’d probably be referred to a proctologist.Posted by Hank Reardon on 2005 12 14 at 11:35 PM • permalinkReal_Jeffs, the face removal is the better of the two. Because, after all, what is a face if you can’t look at it without having a shout at the carpet?
Mospact, since spek was kind enough to give us such a great time on Tim’s blog, we probably should return the compliment. How about the first one banned by spek gets a prize? (Hmm. What would an appropriate prize be for getting banned by spek?)
#37 ekw,
sounds like fun, but who needs a prise when you have that war fuzzy feeling that you only get from baiting the left.
Also i compleatly agree with face removal, it’s the only way to go for margo, ... unless she got a face transplant
Maybe she could sell her story and make some cash for “webdiary Mark2”. the real question here is what type of face would suit her?.... suggestions please
Now we know where Margo got her good looks . . .
Posted by Oafish and Infantile on 2005 12 15 at 12:34 AM • permalinkok guys you have to check out this thread,
i’m having some fun with my pet now, read his BS proposal that rap music is the main problem along with unfair policing of Young Lebanese hoons
I can speak from experience to say that I have seen during the past year ordinary people being pulled over and searched by the police just because they look Lebanese in areas like Bankstown, this creates
resentment and does not solve the underlying problems which despite claims to contrary stem not from the Islamic background of these people but rather from their embrace of a rap and gangster culture.i would encourage others to jump on the band wagon for ensuing hilarity as spek defends himself
If I was that ugly, I would hate everyone also. Especially John Howard, who, remarkably, is even better looking. Perhaps Margo should go to France for a face transplant. She could take anything that came her way, given the odds are it would be a great improvement. Her Webdiary would also be a big hit in France, just like Jar Jar Binks from Star Wars episode 1 was. Those French, love everything, except of course those who saved their asses in both world wars, which they lost miserably.
Hmmm, now we find out the deep seated psychological angst that has driven Magrok’s apparent masculinity quest. The poor thing only wants some fatherly acceptance.
I think the site looks like a shrine; a kind of site of remembrance.
Mums are special people and we should be nice to them because we all give them grief.
Tried to watch the Watts/Bolt debate but my internet access is up the creek. Acknowledging indigenous ownership is not only factually incorrect, it’s racist. While one type of racist might claim that all aboriginals are drunks, another might claim that they are all good and have a special relationship to the planet. Both views are harmful and wrong.
Posted by Major Anya on 2005 12 15 at 03:36 AM • permalink#40 Yes it is going too far-we’ve all got Mums…
Re Spek “stems from their embrace of rap and gangster culture..”.
Our ABC spent 10 minutes this evening promoting just such a new show on “Community Television Channel 31”.
This show will be dedicated to rap music and the host said “we will also show rap’s romantic and softer sid”.“Seeing the two examples he played were definitely not either-one featuring the line “and cop cars proceed with another plan”...
Couldn’t distinguish most of the words -you obviously need a trained ear-but the cd was titled WHO AM I.
ABC presenter Russell Woolfe “do they talk about CURRENT AFFAIRS?”—unique description of gangsta rap. “Oh very much” says prospective tv host. “What sort of thing?”-
“well like not having much money..”
There’ll be vox pops and fashion -we’re keeping it all very light hearted”.
We’re trying to attract new listeners.”
ABC presenter “so the web site’s at (names it),the date and time it commences.
They talk about Daz (presenter knows him) and say he sets the beat for LEILA, who works in the ABC cafeteria.Apparently she’s gorgeous..Prospective host then asks loudly about any listener who is a prospective sponsor and then aunty presenter advertises where prospective host works at a Fremantle hotel and what night….#55 - I was at the 2005 RMIT graduation ceremony last night. That started off with thanks to the traditional ‘owners’ of the land (under Telstra Dome!) and a longish didgeridoo piece. Deakin’s graduation in October also started with thanks to the local (long dead) tribe. Twee, really.
Actually they’re careful not to acknowledge aboriginal ‘ownership’. The acknowledgement is of aboriginal ‘custodianship’ of the land. That just make it worse - having a bet each way.
Posted by walterplinge on 2005 12 15 at 05:47 AM • permalinkActually walterplinge, I have a relative who is an amateur historian. When his inner-trendy suburb wrote published the history of the area they ‘had’ to have the first chapter devoted to TOI (the ‘original’ inhabitants). As it turned out, no dusky tribes ever lived in the area, preferring instead to ‘transit’ through it in search of better lodgings. The facts didn’t stop the local council from turning nothing into 20 odd pages!
John Safran from SBS took the piss royally out of the “We gratefully acknowledge Aborigines as the traditional owners of this land” crowd a couple of years back.
He went around inner Melbourne suburbs like Fitzroy to houses with “We gratefully acknowledge Aborigines as the traditional owners of this land” signs (or words to that effect), and got an aboriginal guy to knock at the door and say “I’m home, where’s my room” (or words to that effect).
Needless to say, there was much spluttering and indignation.
John subsequently put a downloadable sign on his website which read “We gratefully acknowledge Aborigines as the traditional owners of this land (sorta)”.

I think in fairness, the ad is for appearance and placement purposes- so new advertisers (there will be those right?) can see where the ad will be… right?
Well, for that purpose they could have used Google ads, just as they did for the slot on the right-hand side of the page. I think they simply didn’t want to admit that nobody bought a real ad in time for their big relaunch (snicker).
So when are we going to see the first real ad? And who’s going to be the poor sucker? Inquiring minds want to know…
Come on chaps. Lift your game. Denigrating a person for their appearance is just not cricket. Don’t you know. What.
Some of the nastier comments are making a few of us uncomfortable.
Posted by Happy John on 2005 12 15 at 06:37 PM • permalinkBut….but.. we are SUPPOSED to be oafish and infantile!
It’s the law.
Posted by Pedro the Ignorant on 2005 12 16 at 12:51 AM • permalinkA club for Margo, described in The Telegraph (UK) today:
“Ugly People of the World Unite”, is the unofficial motto of the Ugly Club, which has 270 members….We’re tired of the idea that you have to be beautiful to get on in life, that beauty equals social power, and beautiful people earn more and get promoted quicker,” Mr Gasper, 41, said… According to the Ugly Club’s seven-point manifesto “it is unfair that the world is dominated by beautiful people”.
Conclusion: Webdiary failed because it didn’t have a looker on the masthead. In Margo’s case ego trumped commonsense and people were turned off. I make sure my photo appears nowhere on my commercial website for the same reason.
Posted by walterplinge on 2005 12 16 at 03:46 AM • permalinkHandsome is as handsome does.
Regardez sbs site which has a pretty picture of 1 protester and two banners (witness to torture) “outside Guantanamo Bay Detention Centre..”
Long article about “setbacks to David Hicks’ chances of being extradited to U.K.,comments by his Australian lawyer…and you get the distinct impression that they are attempting to influence public opinion and engender sympathy for their David.
Also site says 180 U.N. Peacekeepers and four helicopters expelled from Eritrea.
