Random things on your mind.. (Part 4)

[Smoooothy]

a mate of mine won the keno spot 10 jackpot on sunday

a lazy $1.28 million!

 

[WALL-e]

Bastard......I mean, well done to him, the bastard. Fair to say it's his shout?

 

[Lawrst]

Fair to say he is no longer friends with you commoners?

 

[Smoooothy]

it was weird to watch, we were all genuinely stoked for him, he just sat there absolutely stunned

even yesterday when i saw him he was the same, just shaking! he currently has the better part of 1.29 million waiting to clear in his bank account (that was an amazing bank receipt to see!)

i've told him he will really find out who his mates are now, he'll probably get a lot of people just clinging to him now

 

[WALL-e]

I bet you told him.....

 

[Slippery Pete]

was this in adelaide?

did he pick the numbers himself or was it an easi-pick?

were you with him when it happened?

[Slippery Pete]

Nice to know the easi-picks aren't a scam....

What's he going to do with it? Is he well-off to begin with?

He is now!

[WALL-e]

NO, bloody bank managers.....get him to a financial planner

That fire in Port Augusta ended up around 15 houses away from my grandad, not cool.

I heard the Port Augusta one put itself out, well all the wine casks it encountered in its journey did.

My heart and prayers go out to the family, friends and relatives of that 16 year old girl gunned down in Walkley Heights. I could not imagine what the lady who witnessed the incident is going through about now. Having seen it and allegedly tried to stop him, she would be in a whole lot of physiological mess now.

Big loss to 5AA

POPULAR FiveAA breakfast show announcer Jon Blake has quit the station to join a rival radio network.

FiveAA late night talkback host Bob Francis announced on air last night that Blake, the funnyman of the station's top-rating breakfast program, has signed with ''another radio network''.

''This is hot news folks - he will not appear on tomorrow morning's (Friday's) breakfast show, he's finished,'' Francis said.

''Sean O'Brien, the general manager of dmg Radio said : 'Jon Blake has decided to sign with another radio network and we wish him all the best for the future.

''Wow, that's all anybody is saying at the moment.

''Wouldn't everybody like to know what he was offered from the other radio station. I'd love to know.''

FiveAA later released a brief statement confirming Blake would not be on today's morning show alongside Keith Conlon, John Kenneally, Jane Doyle and Chris McDermott.

Cont

Blake and Triple M have not returned AdelaideNow's phone calls.

Over the years Blake's characters such as Keefey the Weatherman, the Chardonnay-sipping Crows' fan Charles Herringbone, his dead-on impersonation of Premier Mike Rann, his clever songs and his legendary Behind Closed Doors segment have brought him to a point where he is arguably Adelaide's funniest man.

In an interview with SA Weekend magazine in August, a frustated Blake said he felt his talent was being wasted.

"I don't know what they (management) are thinking. They just say you are the funny guy, you make funny phone calls. I get 10 minutes of air time a day if I'm lucky,'' he said.

"I have got more to offer than that and they just won't let me."

FiveAA sports show host Graham Cornes tweeted last night: ''Blakey gone! Life won't be the same. He is the most talented man in Australian radio.''

I did often wonder why they didn't give him more airtime. I figured perhaps it was his choice and he wanted to remain fresh or something.


Wonder what his new role will be?

 

[DREAM TEAM BUFF]

He only got 20 mins 6:50 & 8:50 plus his prank calls

 

[Slippery Pete]

Very, very funny man. Looking forward to hearing him on Triple M, if that's where he ends up.

Tredders might not be able to keep up with him.
