How to get some head in advertising

The controversial (because 'bloody' is apparently a naughty word) 'So where the bloody hell are you?' might be seen by the Australian government as a way of attracting visitors to their country but I think I can do better. Just imagine a large billboard with this picture, or this picture, or this picture or this one or finally this one with the words 'Come to Australia' emblazoned on it. Far better than some thin girl spouting silly slogans on a beach. Those pictures and more can be found here.

Here's a picture of American goalkeeper Keith Wiggins.

At the Games (yes I know they've ended) was Mathew Helm, Robert Newberry and the beard hugging. Why Robert (who has a habit of hugging Mathew) wants to look like a Mexican general in a John Wayne film (or why nobody hasn't sent him a razor and some shaving gel) is one of the great unanswered questions of the decade. Another is why when a cute chap like here for example England's Nicolas Buckfield get dressed in tight lycra shorts they are always photographed with a leg blocking the important bits. Well at least some athletes like English runner Nick McCormick (apparently not Scottish) wear AFL length shorts to run in.

I know I'm repeating myself from earlier this year but I still find it amazing that Nigel Mansell managed to produce two cute sons, Leo and Greg. What is not amazing is that I've removed Nigel from the pictures of his sons.

Finally [nudity alert] for some reason (they come from New Zealand?) some New Zealanders decided to go on the beach with a camera crew and play rugby in the nude. This chap and his team won[/nudity alert].
