    America is quite enamored with canonizing victims as heroes and/or experts these days. In the public eye, a guy like Walsh miraculously gains a lot of leeway to say ridiculous things simply because he's been through a horrible situation.

    So he's the reincarnation of Cindy Sheehan?

    Cindy who? Didn't she fade into obscurity on or around 20 January 2009?

    Huh? Did you say something?

    Books. Bikes. Boomsticks.

    I can explain it to you. I can’t understand it for you.

    If I were a thunder god - I might be able to attract Natalie Portman.

    She does have a thing for superhero:
    Thor
    Anakin (before he turned)
    V

    It's not about being a Thunder God, must be an Aussie thing.

    Vintage Mel, vintage Russell Crowe, Hugh Jackman, Eric Bana, Heath Ledger, Chris Hemsworth, Guy Pearce.

    Gotta be something in the water.
