A cautionary tale…
Bernard Keane / Tuesday, 9 February 2010 / 9
The Government’s weekend handout to the free-to-air television networks — $100-odd million this year and $150m next -– has sunk with barely a trace in the media.
Glenn Dyer / Tuesday, 9 February 2010 / 0
The booming Aussie dollar is encouraging Australians to travel more overseas, yesterday’s Super Bowl was the most watched game in history and the most watched TV show ever, Clive Palmer is back to his old tricks and more business briefs.

now FD, that is twice you have featured a water buffalo called warren - pray tell, what is all that about? we wait with baited breath to find out.
Karma rools OK? Poor traumatised water buffalo “squeep”. Im just wondering how Warren survived the masterchef catch it then cook it debacle - now there is a cartoon!
Pricless, FD, priceless.
“A life of quiet ignominy.”
That’s so beautiful FD.
LOL
Perhaps Ricky can enjoy his retirement,
swapping stories with that other well known cricket tragic, JWH.
Squeep
There’s a theory emerging on Twitter — yes, Twitter, shoosh! — that all water buffalo are called Warren.
STILGHERRIAN: Perhaps FD is a secret admirer of Warren Truss and wishes to commemorate that fact? It’s just an idea, that’s all.
Ah FD, “Bordering” on ” Waugh”, there could be a “Warning” from the Tassie ” Boondocks” just “Taylormade” if you are a “punter” for a quick exit by “Lawrie”.
Two legs good, 4 legs …
Man pig features in a Jose Gonzales song on youtube - quite catchy, poor snorting porker. Search ‘down the line’ there, also same song entitled previously as The Darkness. Poor Ricky.
Bouquets Raymond
Can we please leave Ricky alone a little, he is the only reliable batsmen we have left. Just dont let run anything.
Has anyone ever heard a water buffalo say “squeep”??
I love Warren - I hope he becomes a regular in FD cartoons!
ROFL ‘I totally want to punch that Barmy Army trumpet guy’
I need some swisse ultivite buffalo remedy. Also some bruschetta.
