<< HEAT BLAMED ~ MAIN ~ NOT AS BAD AS LAST TIME >>
MODO - MANHUNTER!
“Are men necessary?” asks Australia-bound Maureen Dowd. Well, apparently one of them is:
She visited this country during the first Bush era … This time she plans to track down an Aussie bloke she had a crush on when she was 20.
BTW- any bets on who the subject of her ardour is? I’ll wager it’s this fine example of fair dinkum Aussie male.
Habib, that’s not Mark Latham is it? That’s who I’d suspect of being MoDo’s crushee. The Mad and the Mindless. they were made for each other.

Maybe he has sufficient advance notice to enter a monastery........

Posted by the nailgun on 2006 01 22 at 10:38 PM • permalinkWell, at least he has enough warning to head for the bush…
Posted by richard mcenroe on 2006 01 22 at 10:43 PM • permalinkLook for men in the 45-60 age range making sudden, unexpected overseas departures or extended outback forays. It’ll be one of them.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. How long was it after Michael Douglas dumped her that she got on this kick?
“Men are obviously intimidated by smart, successful, fascinating women, and this insecurity expains why they take up with young, pretty little airheads whose ass looks kind of fat after she pumped out those pups.”
Flee! Run for you life!
Hmm. Maybe it’s this person.
Off topic, but an impeachment is in progress.
Posted by Mr Hackenbacker on 2006 01 22 at 11:03 PM • permalinkRebecca, I can tell you’re not Australian. Rowdiness is a way of life down here.
Let me tell ya, the women down here would make your fellows look as tough as James Blunt (sensitve and lovely English singer).
Let’s say, we will give Maureen an Aussie bloke, if she gives us a few of those sexy and straight cowboys in return.
Posted by Major Anya on 2006 01 22 at 11:05 PM • permalinkAlso off topic, but related to the link supplied by Mr Hackenbacker…
From the article: “ “The Office” will go off the air at the end of March so star Steve Carell can film a movie, Reilly said.”
PLEASE let that be the “Get Smart” movie!
Posted by MikeTheLibrarian on 2006 01 22 at 11:21 PM • permalinkSomebody better tell MoDo the misandrist that she has little chance of finding him in
Brokeback MountainSydney (same thing?).How long will it be until someone leaks MoDo’s version of Dr Laura’s nudie pics?

Men of Australia! Paco Enterprises is here to save the day!
For only US$19.95 (plus $5.95, s&h), you can purchase the “Failsafe Modo Evasion Kit”. Included in this life-saving package you will find everything you need to avoid being identified - perhaps mistakenly (why take a chance?) - as the “bloke” in question by this snarky, ageing virago:
1) Two false beards (the “Assyrian Wave” and the “Z-Z-Top").
2) A variety of false noses reflecting all races and ethnic types.
3) Several stick-on plastic sores and skin blotches to suggest foul, contagious diseases.
4) A “Yellow Jack” flag to hang outside the door of your home.
5) A selection of George Bush campaign buttons, bumper stickers and yard signs.
6) Smoke bombs (to faciliate a quick get-away, should your Assyrian beard and plast-cankers blow away in a high wind).
7) Seltzer tablets (pop one in your mouth and - voila! - instant “rabies attack”!).
Checks payable to Paco Enterprises (no COD, please). MC and VISA accepted.
I might have gotten my timeline wrong first time around; if it’s a bloke who was a bit of a famous lefty scribe when man-hating Manhattan Margo was in the first bloom of gigly girlhood, then it’s likely to be this rooster. Then again, I mightn’t be setting the way-back machine controls right, and this defender of the down-trodden is the lucky lothario.
(Didn’t Michael Douglas have a big habit with the dumb dust? These revelations explain a lot; if it had’ve been me, I would have been going through an open-cut dumptruck’s worth of PCP before breakfast).
Hmmm.
My money is on Tim Blair & MoDo.
Boy are you in for a ride of your life there Tim! :)

Huh. Well, methinks the Times should go to any prison and take a survey to find out how many of the lads grew up with Dad in the house, and compare that to the general population.
Then they could ask the same question of the ladies at the strip joint, on the set of a porn film, or working the corners near the Times’s building.
The Horror - you answer a knock at your door - and Modo is standing there smiling at you.
Posted by perfectsense on 2006 01 23 at 01:46 AM • permalinkA UK press report in the middle of last year summarised a study that showed men mellowed as they aged where women became angrier. I suspect that in private Modo is sharp-tongued and disobliging (PC term: assertive), qualities that don’t endear oneself to prospective life-partners of the male sex.
Anyone who has been forced to deal with an unmarried (either ab initio or divorced) middle aged female public servant will know how true this is.
Posted by walterplinge on 2006 01 23 at 02:30 AM • permalinkOk- this is weird.
Has anyone else noticed how much Shake Hilary looks like ‘Pauly’ from Fat Pizza?
Scary!Posted by Lucky Nutsacks on 2006 01 23 at 06:22 AM • permalinkYou’re all wrong . . . . it was this guy. MoDo sent him batting for the other team.
Posted by Oafish and Infantile on 2006 01 23 at 06:57 AM • permalinkMuch fun picking out MoDo’s secret love, but I think Mr Hackenbacker (#14) has it nailed.
A finer example of Australian beauty of visage, erudition, and political clout could not be found anywhere.
A match made in heaven.

“In days of old,
When knights were bold,
And women werent invented.
Men drilled holes in telephone poles,
And stood there quite contented!”Posted by thefrollickingmole on 2006 01 23 at 08:04 AM • permalinkThere’s a Darkhorse entry, but the silly sod let her out of his ute- one more diatribe about how white males were using their penises to cause global warming and how wimmin are so much smarter, they should be running the world bank and the UN and he would have really lost it.
How did Dowd get into the country, if part of her reason for coming here was to track down a stranger from 20 years ago!?!
#8- Nailgun- don’t wish something like that upon Tony. He’s going to fix up the publicly funded arts, academia, and TV networks- just for me =) He cant do all that with Dowd demanding he become a House-Husband to make up for years of society’s abuse of women.
#42- even he musta been drunk at the time, he sure as hell wasn’t stoned out of his mind because he ‘never inhaled’ pot. That picture you linked was edited by GLW by the way, to remove his anti-Christ like appearance. Try this one.
Understand, please, that the request is made with mixed feelings - hate to do that to a valued and respected ally made up of good and decent people.
Oh fuck that. Every country for themselves. Ok, it’s decided. MoDo stays in Oz.
Posted by wronwright on 2006 01 23 at 01:45 PM • permalinkOkay, tell you guys what - you keep MoDo, and you can have our seat on the Security Council. And we’ll throw in the UN headquarters too.
And that’s my final offer.
Posted by Steve Skubinna on 2006 01 23 at 10:58 PM • permalinkAnthony,
How about if we throw in Alaska too? It’s got oil and it would provide a cool place for your summer vacations at Christmastime.Posted by Michael Lonie on 2006 01 24 at 01:46 AM • permalinkHey Habib re #63, you gotta realize that we’re talking about the new, improved Alaska here. This one’s got a $200 million Bridge To Nowhere” - perhaps you’ve heard about it? It’s the one to be built, with money grifted by Alaska’s senior Senator Stephens from the American people, so the 50 or 60 people living on an island don’t have to take new, ultra-modern ferries across a 2 mile wide channel. Now, you have to admit, that sweetens the deal. Right?
But, if you insist on more, maybe we could throw in Ray Nagin - he could go around promising to make Ankorage a “Chocolate City”. We’d hate to lose such a colorful bit of Americana, but we’ll get used to it. It would be for a most worth cause - Modo stays “down under”.

Uh, to be honest, it’s not exactly a bridge “to nowhere”. The Evil Cult Known as Neoconservatism has its Alaska resort there. Karl and Cheney go there often for salmon fishing and brown bear wrestling.
Karl got tired of having to transport his HumVee on a ferry. Last time the ferry was 20 minutes late docking and Karl “was not please”. Hence, the bridge.
If you don’t mind, I’d prefer not mentioning what happened to the ferry captain. Let’s just say Richard McEnroe was delegated that task and that’s NEVER a good thing.
Posted by wronwright on 2006 01 24 at 01:30 PM • permalinkMaybe if they kept the bridge going all the way across the Aleutians so we could pick up cheap Russki vodka, prostitutes and nuclear submarines we’d cosider the deal- you’d have to keep Toni Collette and Heath Ledger though (preferrably in Hicksie’s kenel at ‘Gitmo, with both of them wearing Anti-Defamation League t-shirts).
Oh, all right Anthony, you can have herpes, too. I’ll make sure MoDo brings some over.

I was wondering if they were going to link the puff piece from the Weekend Oz colour magazine by O’Neill; if Modo represents the left’s idea of a hornbag, little wonder they’re champing at the bit to view Bareback Mountain. She makes Heath Ledger look and sound like Ann Coulter.
