THE IBOTYAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

November 25th 2006 20:59
Gentlies and Ladymen,

It's that time of the week again!
My, where does the time go?

Just seven days since Sophia Loren's world came crashing down it is time, once again, to dip our oars into the murky waters of life and see just who are this week's vote getters in the International Blogstopper Of The Year Award (aka the IBOTYAS).

==================================

Bananas In Pyjamas
* "Pick me! Pick me!"


The votes are in and let me tell you my fellow Bloggsters it was no easy task this week. It was like a depraved puppet show with so many people putting their hand up.

So before we go any further I'd just like give honourable mentions to these worthy contenders, who on a slow week would be absolute morals to score votes:

Super Ted Bailleu - For his Crumpet and Trumpet show. For twenty five days Ted paraded his tasty MILFworthy wife around Victoria for any photo op available. But it was his continued insistance on playing rather than blowing his own trumpet that almost won us over. Almost but not quite.

Michael Kramer Richards - Everybody has a bad day. He had 1000 of them at once.

Bryce Gibbs - A young talented footballer rated #1 in his a age group. He had everything going for him..........and then Carlton recruited him!


But enough about the chicken dinners. It's time for the winners:

===================================
THE JOE BLOGGS 2007 INTERNATIONAL BLOGGSTOPPER OF THE YEAR AWARD

1 VOTE - ALEXANDER DOWNER

Computer games
* "Why hasn't orble paid me $40?!"

Who somehow, whilst dealing with the potential Fijian coup, managed to launch his blog - needynerdsblog.com on Orble and then spend the rest of the week bitching about why he hasn't recieved $40 and making countless inane thankyou posts to every freakin' reply on his blog.

2 VOTES - DAMIR DOKIC

The big man of tennis was back in the news when he somehow mistook his daughter's refusal to answer his phonecalls because he is an insane meglomaniacal drunken baffoon with being kidnapped.
An easy mistake to make I'm sure.
Ironically his daughter returned serve gracefully. Pity she can no longer do that on the court!

3 VOTES - ADAM WATT

Who?!
No not Who, Watt!
This bloke......
Stresspassers will be prosecuted
* Stresspassers will be prosecuted


Seems it all got a bit much for Adam:

Mother tells of shock at finding boxer in a frock

CHRISTINE SIMMONS was petrified when she awoke to find a strange man, wearing a white dress, lying on her couch muttering incoherently, having rearranged the pictures on her wall.

She probably would have been more alarmed if she'd known her intruder was the four-times world kickboxing champion and former Commonwealth boxing champion Adam Watt.

Watt, 31, appeared in court yesterday charged with resisting arrest, intimidation and two counts of trespass.

The Downing Centre Local Court heard that at 6.15am on April 22 Ms Simmons, 54, and her daughter Tiffany were asleep in their two-bedroom Dee Why flat when Ms Simmons was awakened by voices.

When she went to investigate she a saw a man lying on her couch. "I was absolutely terrified," she told the court. "This man was wearing a long white dress and mumbling incoherently."

The court heard that after Ms Simmons screamed for Mr Watt to leave, he walked into her kitchen. Terrified he was going to fetch a knife, she shouted at him that she was going to call the police. "If you call the police I will come back and then you will be in real trouble," Mr Watt told her.

When the Dee Why police arrived, they found Mr Watt back on the couch still muttering incoherently. During a scuffle with police outside the apartment block, Mr Watt suffered a laceration above his eye.

As it transpired, Mr Watt lived in the flat directly above Ms Simmons. He told the court he had gone to bed about 2.30am after dinner with friends during which he shared two bottles of wine with a female friend.

Having only recently returned from overseas, Mr Watt said he had been sleeping badly and took two Stilnox sleeping tablets. "I can't remember anything after that," he told the court. Mr Watt did recall the looks of "bewilderment and amusement" he received at the police station over his attire which, he told the court, was a dress from Dubai.

The magistrate Alison Viney dismissed all charges against Mr Watt, saying she could not be satisfied beyond reasonable doubt Mr Watt had meant to intimidate Ms Simmons nor that he had knowingly resisted the attempts to arrest him.

The two charges of trespass were dropped because police had brought the charges under the wrong section of the Inclosed Lands Protection Act.


We found the whole Stress Dress Mess saga a ripping yarn only made better by the fact that the cops botched the charges.
joebloggsblog.net firmly believes there just isn't enough cross dressing kick-boxers getting around these days so we're right behind Adam 100%!
But it wasn't his choice of attire that got him over the line though.
It was the simple fact that he'd re-arranged the pictures on Ms. Simmons wall.
Top effort that!

===================================

So let's take a quick peek at the IBOTYA Leader's Board and see the state of play thus far:

3 - Sophia Loren, Adam Watt
2 - Alexander Downer, Bono, Damir Dokic

Jeepers!
Like a fat man's skivvy it's getting tight at the top.

Joe,

Simple as in not complicated, not as in slow. Though it did take me awhile to respond to your comment....
