I just don't give a shit anymore about people saying "Oh God what is WRONG with you?" I'll watch what I wanna watch thank you. And I like hearing people sing.

I can see why people hate Scooter Girl. She has a good voice but the rest is... just wrong.
[later] - haha she got booted off!

I'm going for beefy ex quarterback guy.
He can sing well and he reminds me of someone... I'm not sure who... but I like him.

I'm a member of the ACNielsen survey panel. Pretty much you sign up, they send you a survey every so often and by doing these surveys you go in a competion to win one of 4 prizes valued at $30,000 and you earn points. When you earn enough points you can buy stuff from their catalogue.

Pretty nifty if you ask me, I like surveys and if I'm gonna be rewarded for it then great!

Of course they also encourage you to get friends involved. At the moment I have the chance to earn up to 250 points if I reel some friends in who will join within the week.

So if you're interested gimme a reply (or e-mail, I'm surprised how many e-mails I don't actually know)!! You don't have to do any survey you don't want to. And they do promise not to sell your personal info or use it for spam.

Just made the sauce for the best sketti.

Ingredients

A little olive oil
3 heaped teaspoons crushed garlic (vary to taste, I get carried away with the garlic)
2 teaspoons "squeezy basil" (basil that comes ready chopped in a tube)
half a white onion - chopped
1 small yellow capsicum - chopped
about 7 mushrooms - chopped
half a large zuchinni - chopped
1 medium carrot - grated
1 jar Raguletto Napolitana pasta sauce
half a fast food container of frozen, mushed, homegrown tomatoes
3 generous handfuls of homegrown cherry tomatoes (red and yellow)
1 1/2 cups frozen corn kernels
500g mince

Method
Put a bit of oil in saucepan, add garlic, basil and onion. Fry until onion is clear.
Add mince, fry until mince is browned.
Drain oil off.
Add pasta sauce.
Add all veges, stir.

Let it simmer for a few hours. Stir occaisionally so it doesn't stick to the bottom.
Cook up some pasta (spaghetti is best) and put a few spoonfulls of sauce on the top.
Top with parmesan.

Serve with garlic bread if desired.

BON APETIT!
