THE IBOTYAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
December 3rd 2006 06:56
"Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and cauldron bubble.'
Gentlies and Ladymen,
We all know what time it is..............
"By the pricking of my thumbs,
Something wicked this way comes."
IT'S IBOTYA TIME!!!
And what a stellar week it was in the circus we call life.
==========================================
But before we get on with the votes we must dispense with the preliminaries.
Unlike Monica Lewinsky many people got close but alas there was no cigar.
In no particular order......
Adele (from biologynews.com.au) - who took the rather extreme step of incorporating joebloggsblog.net into the primary school curriculum. Whilst we applaud this kinda lateral thinking we also believe Adele didn't go far enough. They need to be logging on as part of their homework. It will learn them real gooder.
Wally Lewis - who for the second time in a week froze on camera quicker than a Japanese tourist in Antartica prompting his employers, Channel 9, to give him an immediate holiday. Thank God King Wally wasn't a train driver or worse still a French Mime - he'd be stuck in that invisible box forever!!
But like the witches of Macbeth there can only be three who stir our voting cauldron......
==========================================
THE JOE BLOGGS 2007 INTERNATIONAL BLOGGSTOPPER OF THE YEAR AWARD
1 VOTE - ALEXANDER DOWNER
Kudos to the great man!
First we got Psychic Alex with his early call on the Fijian coup. Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, enjoys a good snappy 'travel alert' like Alex. If only the coup organisiers were as quick. But our boy AD just couldn't leave well enough alone could he?
Ohhhhh no.
Goodbye Psychic Alex and hello Stand Up Comic Alex.
We're not entirely sure what the gag the rosy cheeked one was trying to tell or even if it was actually meant to be a gag. But we're pretty sure suggesting his wife was sleeping with another politician during question time probably wasn't the punchline.
2 VOTES - GLENN MILNE
Who confused the Walkely Awards for a swingers club by bounding onto the stage as as full as a fat man's boot and assualting Crikey.com journo Stephen Mayne.
Milne later apologised issuing this statement:
" I lamentably mixed alcohol and migraine medication with shocking consequences."
The question is does he prefer white or red migraine medication?
But the coveted 3 votes MUST go to.....
3 VOTES - NAOMI ROBSON
For her immortal words:
"That's why they wouldn't show me the tape before the show"
....as she ended 10 years at the helm of [I]Today Tonight{/I] with a celebrity tribute that included such shining lights as rogue trader Steve Vizard and Rex Hunt, a man who has been more proactive than Charle Sheen.
Very touching indeed!
=========================================
So taking a quick peek at the IBOTYA Leader's Board and we see Big Al has joined the front runners:
3 - Sophia Loren, Adam Watt, Alexander Downer, Naomi Robson
2 - Glenn Milne , Bono, Damir Dokic
If it was any closer they'd be cousins!
