Hughesy is thinking joining the club
Dave Hughes said this morning on the radio that he is thinking of buying himself a Mazda RX-8 (he said XR-8 dumb ***)...
I emailed him --- thought of calling to the show but didn't...

Dave Hughes is the famous comedian in Australia... I love his show. He is thinking of getting the new Mazda but he does not know if it is the RX-8 or the XR-8. One caller with an V8 called and he said - "no this is not I am going to get"
He did not service his last car - a Corolla - for the last 20000km so I gave him an email about the car - I fear him going for the automatic... coz his last car was an automatic

Hahaha.....I did the same thing, rang up the Mazda dealer and said "Hi, this is Steve, I spoke to you yesterday about buying an XR8.....".......Easily done when you own one and have lived and breathed Fords for a few years!
Damn, would have been funny to hear that Hughsy thing. I'm in Samoa and have missed the latest. Had a cabbie today who thought his diesel corolla was a Kenworth......he made shoooshing airbrake noises every time he used the brakes. It was a pisser!

Hughesy has got himself a silver Mazda RX-8!!!
He is picking it up on Saturday and I think he got it from Brighton Mazda or City Mazda --- he lives in St. Kilda remember and I doubt he will go far from home to pick up his car!

I emailed Nova and told him that ... it is up to him... of course we can start the thread of spotting Hughesy.
He is quite nice and open for a celeb...
He lives in St Kilda near Acland Street and drive to Nova in Richmond everyday next week. Very easy to spot him. I am sure he will complain of petrol consumption.

It is controversial to say any "fang" area as the TAC may be on their back coz they are promoting speed driving...
Why put yourself on a situation that the authority can be hold that against you... I guess they are looking for ratings... They do it pretty well and I think sometimes if they push an inch too far they will be in trouble esp there are children listening to the show

Dentists on the forum, lookout !!!
"CBC reports that the tranquil music that wafts through many dental offices to soothe patients and mask the sounds of the drill may soon be silenced. The music industry is putting the bite on dentists -- demanding that they pay for the right to play it. The Society of Composers, Authors and Music Publishers of Canada would also like to extend this policy to 'coffee shops, clothing stores, lounges, elevators -- even radio tunes that people hear on the telephone while on hold.'

I also think that if the cost of new release CD's (you know - the ones, with 2 good tracks and 15 crap ones for $30) were more realistically priced ... say $5~7 ... then the industry wouldn't be in such a vulnerable and threatened position.
