Spizrock's thank you to y'all by SPIZROCK

Read below for the words to my thank you message:

This past year has been real tough for me – as most of you would know it was tumultuous to say the least on the family front. Hence the reason I was being indulgent in having a bday party - it was in an attempt to wash away the pain of the year and begin anew and was also my way of thanking you all for being a part of my life, both today and in the future.

Now as you all know, I do have a penchant for movies and an encyclopaedic knowledge of pop culture… so I cast my mind to the Brad Pitt film “Meet Joe Black”. The tag line was “there’s nothing surer in life than death and taxes”. However, that said, I believe this misses the true story, the real picture. In the movie, all Brad Pitt wants to do is find love, and it sways him from his sole task.

So I have come to the conclusion that there is nothing surer in life than love. Love in all its forms, not just the traditional notion of romantic love, for love has the ability to transcend and manifest itself in many, many forms. Love makes early morning starts bearable, you can keep it in your pocket or on your phone, it can be found in a melody, it makes work feel like play, it makes you run out in the rain with your mates, it forges bonds, it erases hardship, it soothes the pain and it lifts us up where we belong.

Love is the omnipresence that makes life worth living and what we all should strive for before any materialistic gains.

Which bring me to you all and the point of writing this message to you all.

Without the love you have all provided me, the year gone passed would have been indeed much worse and intolerable. For those of you who came along on the night I thank you (check out the photos located on facebook), for those who couldn’t make it I’ll catch up for a drink with you soon.

For it is all of you, my family and friends that make me who I am, it is the love you provide that makes the happiness abound in me and the good times roll on.

Until next year

The Birthday of Spizrock - 2011

2011-11-08T14:24:00.008+11:00

To all my friends, I would like to invite you all to my Birthday Party. It's been a tumultuous year from my end (that left with me with a little scar), so I'd like to bring in the new one with a kick ass party.

As such I want to wash it away with all my friends around me - looking at having a massive one so come on down for a great night out. The Venue is Cafe Republic (160 Toorak, South Yarra, Australia 3141) and we will be going from 9pm til 3am on SATURDAY 26th NOVEMBER.

As every year - i have transposed a birthday song for you all - follow my re-worked lyrics of "Solid" by Ashford and Simpson below:

The Birthday of Spizrock

And for love’s sake, lets wipe away, the year that’s gone passed
It was tumultuous, for some of us

He couldn’t run away, there was no time to play
Lets write it off and write it off and write it off

And now you’re invited, to,

The birthday of Spizrock

To show what love is
To the friends that he’s got oh, mmm…

Invited (Oh)
The Birthday of Spizrock
He’s one year older (Ooh)
And he’s still hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot

Oh…oh…oh…ah…

He wanted to turn away
When the sky went grey
Somehow he managed
He had to keep it together (Ooh…ooh…ooh…ooh…)

He didn’t bat an eye
When events made him cry
He knew down the line
It would all get better (Ooh…ooh…ooh…ooh…)

And for love’s sake, lets wipe away, the year that’s gone passed
It was tumultuous, for some of us

He couldn’t run away, there was no time to play
Lets write it off and write it off and write it off

You’re invited, to,

the birthday of Spizrock [Ooh]
He’s one year older (Ooh)
And he’s still hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot

Oh…oh…oh…ah…

Oh, lets remove the memory
Of the past year
Let’s start anew
Lets do what we have to do (Ooh…ooh…ooh…ooh…)

And with that feeling, let’s be willing, to drink and to dance
So to the year ahead, celebrate the start
He is serious (Ooh), in Spiro we trust
Lets write it off and write it off and write it off

You’re invited, to, [Ooh]

the birthday of Spizrock
To show what love is (Oh…oh…)
To the friends that he’s got [Oh…oh…]

Invited (Yes, you are)
To the birthday of Spizrock (Ah…)
He’s one year older (Ooh)
And he’s still hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot, hot

Invited (Oh)

2011 Pure Waters of Tasmania - Winning!

2011-09-09T12:55:00.000+10:00

BTAFC's and Spizrock's 2011 entry into the Boags Pure Waters of Tasmania TVC competition.
Big thanks to Corporate AV (http://corporateav.com.au/) for the use of their excellent equipment.

Gangstaaaaaaa

2011-08-22T13:09:00.002+10:00

there's no excuse for bad spelling or bad grammar - unless you're gangster of course...

linguistic wrath

2011-01-21T13:05:00.004+11:00

People - we live in a land where we use UK/Australian English and not US English. As much as "Utilize" and "Organize" make some kind of phonetic sense, they are quite simply wrong. Next person to send me a doc or spell incorrectly will feel my linguistic wrath...

Rafael Benitez - adieu

2010-12-23T11:22:00.003+11:00

Here's some jokes i came up with after hearing the announcement of his sacking from inter milan - mainly for team Cilmi who has already rejoiced in the news:

Rafael “Rafa” Benitez - he's a fucking twat

he is president of that royal association of twats - el presidentwat

He is the called King Twat of the royal duchy of twatness

when he cooks and makes pies, they are all called twat pie

most people say 'what' but he says 'twat'

he’s next gig will be to go to manage "twatford" in the UK

if he was in pulp fiction, Jules (samuel J) would have said to him "say 'twat' one more time, i dare you, i double dare you motherfucker”

if he was working for mad magazine, Alfred E Newman’s catch phrase would be "twat me worry"

if rafa was working for warner brothers bugs bunny would end up have saying "twat's up doc"

Every day for rafa is twatsday

Beyonce thinks rafa is twatiliscious

To send messages to other goatee wearing Spaniards he uses Twatter and his messages are called "twats"

Marvin Gaye used to sing about Rafa in his opus "twat's going on"

His kids refer to him as “the Twatfather”

He tells twat twat jokes instead of knock knock jokes

He would consider his sacking to be a “twatgedy”

Its odd that during the game he likes to stand outside the box

His parrot’s mimicry is bizarrely accurate... “Twaaaaat, twaaaaat!”

He went searching in Scotland for the Twatness monster

An Ode for my Dad's Bladder

2010-12-03T18:32:00.001+11:00

(To be said in a kick ass Samuel L. Jackson voice)

Dear Bladder Cancer,

You've been a real shit, a pain and you are not welcome in my father's body anymore.

Yeah cos we herald from the time of the Greek Gods and to you motherfucker I am Zeus. You know, Mount Olympus, father of Apollo, don't fuck with me or I'll shove a lightning bolt up your ass, Zeus!?!

See you're assuming we weren’t gonna get rid of your sorry ass, and everyone knows when you make an assumption, you make an ass out of you and umption.

You’ve been fucking with me for a while and I swore you that you would regret it. You tried to fuck with me with earlier scans and you remained inconspicuous, but then we found you, you low down dirty son of a bitch.

What’s that I here you say...what?!? Say "what" again. I dare you, I double dare you, motherfucker!

Having said that, thanks for not spreading anywhere else and muchos gracias for getting the fuck out of his body.

Please do not return, do not pass GO and yes, you deserve to die and I hope you burn in hell.

Yours Sincerely - Spizrock

2010 Spizrock's birthday

2010-11-20T11:00:00.003+11:00

As with every year, I like to celebrate with a little song for you all. But rather than inviting y'all to my birthday drinks/party, this year I have to delay it due to family reasons. Never fear, there will be a party, but it will be early next year.

Spizrock x

(tune is to George Michael’s ‘Waiting For That Day’)

George Michael - Waiting For That Day by Nosac4

Waiting For My Birthday

Do do do, do do do,

So every year I send you all a message to celebrate
So we can crack a smile, talk a while
Over drinks at my birthday
My memory serves me far too well

Now I just sit here with my laptop thinking to myself
I’m a grown boy
Why do I still need to
Have a party
Is it for me or everybody else
My memory serves me far too well

It's not as though I’m twenty one
It's not as though I’m feeling any older

But something I just can't explain
I cannot lie or try to feign

I just wanna see your faces again

Do do do, do do do,
C'mon now

Do do do, do do do,
Guess who is 34 now

Now everybody talks about their new birthday
When you sing a magic number
To rejoice with
Family and the friends you’ve made
Oh my memory serves me far too well

Don't you know that
The years will come and go
Some of you have changed your lives
And all of us still have something to show
What we got, baby
Are memories

My current wounds
They are parental-inflicted
I don't really know
How my poor heart has protected me

But since I have to carry this pain
In a few months it won’t feel the same

That’s when I want to see your faces again

Do do do, do do do,
C'mon now
My birthday party is gonna be delayed now
Do do do, do do do,

When you come to my party

I will make it worth your while
To come back to your Spizrock
I miss your kisses
I miss your smiles
Seems to me the peace I search to find
Ain't going to be mine for some time

Sorry to say but...

I’m gonna have to keep you waiting for my birthday
I know, I know, I know
You hear these words that I say

You can't always get what you want

You can't always get what you want

You can't always get what you want...

Spizrock's quote of the day:

Family Guy Quote #1 (at a Female boxing match)

Glen Quagmire: What can I say? I really like watching her box.

Peter Griffin: That means two things.

It's a nice day for a white wedding...

2010-11-15T10:51:00.001+11:00

Trip there: Was gonna write a few amended lyrics to Billy Idol's "White Wedding" in my blog's celebratory status for Alison and Michael's wedding today, but then re-read through the original lyrics and thought that perhaps it would be more suitable if she were my sister who had actually been knocked up, was having a shotgun wedding and needed to... erm.... ssstart agaaaaaain. So like, not really suitable but still a great song for the drive down to Red Hill.

Trip home: Damn you Red Hill for getting me lost on the way home. I did make the left turn at Albuquerque, but missed the turn at the big old tree. At least i had my snarl and leather gloved fist punch to keep me sane.

Entourage quote #4:

2010-08-31T14:12:00.006+10:00

Entourage Series 7 is back baby - normally i go to Johnny drama for my quotes, but i gotta hand it to Ari this time around:

Ari Gold to Dana: Let me explain this to you in a metaphor you will understand:I'm sure there are guys who have fingered you in the ass long enough that eventually, you let them fuck it & now you think you got me bent over with your finger in my ass,thinking I'm gonna let you do the same. I'm not like you, Dana! You will not fuck me in the ass! Vince will not piss in a cup, for you or anyone else.

Brilliant...

Gotta get up and back...right on track
