The effect of the undersea earthquake was unpredicatble- the response of Channel Nine was as predictable as the sun coming up.

I knew this was big news item when they went with the all too familiar “could it happened here?” story, reminding us that New Zealand is on a fault line and what if… etc.

While I have no problem with reporting the numbers of Australians lost, to run the “what if?” line the very day of the disaster is not good journalism, reporting, taste, science or sense. It does however create fear, fill in time and otherwise distract us from the tragedy at hand.

Rachel and I went to a wedding on Saturday. I was clearly the best looking woman there…

In Music and Media Ezine this week:

In May, this column reported that Gary Dunn and James Morley, founder members of Perth cover band Our Generation, launched action in the WA Supreme Court against ex-manager Derek Harrison and band members Rocco Mazzone and Frank Licastro…

Part of the issue was Harrison, a businessman who put money into the band’s stage costumes and props, had registered the name and owned it. Harrison tells this column he was part of the partnership, which split their monies equally, and had come up with the name.

Harrison says, “It’s a lesson to all young bands – always draw up a partnership agreement and get a good lawyer.”

Actually, there’s an even better message:

DON’T PLAY IN A FUCKING COVERS BAND!

When a really big rainbow appeard recently, Rachel came running into the house screaming “rainbow! rainbow!” So I took a few snaps… then for reasons unknown, she started dancing like a LOON.

Bless ‘er!

Rachel performs her “rainbows make me happy” dance&nbsp

The, er… “awful” moment when you realise you have been a dork in public…
