We like to watch. But while we sometimes may not like to be watched, which wanton watching are we worried with?

video | Markos n Geet do HK, Hong Kong 2003
Geet made me say “edited and directed by Geet”: A fellow Perth posse reprobate hits Hong Kong and does the instant-noodle version tourist trail. Geet is only too happy to pander, for the rest of us it’s another day at the office. (April 2003; 3.9MB)

video | Just Because I’m 7, Hong Kong 2003
Geet’s birthday present to Jeremy – Geet’s songsmithery and singing, jolly romp through the trials of premature rebellion. Ably assisted on bass by ‘akubra’ Kev and yelps by ‘help desk’ Adm. (April 2003; 2.5MB)

HONG KONG–Excellent, some voices of sanity have returned following the recent bout of “regime change”: US anger at Annan remarks where Annan fleetfootedly refers to “occupying forces”; BBC chief attacks US media war coverage – “If Iraq proved anything, it was that the BBC cannot afford to mix patriotism and journalism,” Greg Dyke – oh, and the Dixie Chicks. Let it be said I’d rather eat nails than listen to CW, but there’s a great rail against ignorance in the full EW interview. Latest vids: Just Because I’m 7; Markos n Geet do HK. Can I go (to Melb) now?

LIAM GOAT FUKUI, JAPAN–“I agree with goat – bring back ‘Everyone’s a winner’. On another note they are still producing many Goats of Joy products here in Japan. You can buy the Goats of Joy ‘Delicacy’ (the edible car) from vending machines and the Goats of Joy Match Making School’s PhD course has just commenced. Unfortunately the Goats of Joy ‘Umbrella’ (it’s like a portable roof) is no longer hip. (rtrfm.com.au 2003-04-04).” Site update: eepeeanjisex. Get your MASKS on! And happy In The Pines my Perth posse!
