Weep for the Sheep 2

[poliphilo]

They showed us the sheep on the mid-day news. It was one big enormous fluff-ball. Maybe they were doing it a favour after all.

And it was New Zealand not Australia. That makes sense. I don't suppose there are that many caves for sheep to hide in in the Australian outback. It's flat. It's dusty. But New Zealand- ah.....

I've often said I'd like to go there, but I didn't really mean it. It's too far. And where's the need now they've got a film industry? Why fly halfway round the world when you can enjoy the scenery (superbly lit) in the privacy of your own home?

 You think I'm talking about LOTR. Well I suppose I am, but mainly I'm talking about Xena Warrior Princess. Xena got there first. And besides, the scenery in LOTR has been all scrambled up in the computers.

Five Reasons why Xena is better that LOTR

1.Lucy Lawless could eat Viggo Mortensen for breakfast

2 Renee O'Connor is cuter than any damn hobbit.

3 Xena completes her missions in a snappy 50 minutes.

4 There aren't any lesbians in Tolkien. Dammit, there are hardly any women.

5 Joxer.

Good points, but Hercules was there before Xena. Xena was just another bad girl until she got some good Herc luving. Although Hercules deserves five reasons for being better than LOTR, just one is sufficient... 3 words: leather waffle pants.

I'll be visiting New Zealand as part of a trip to Micronesia this fall. I'm looking forward to the adventure, and the scenery.

Yes, Herc is great too. I loved it when they played the two shows back to back. Two straight hours of scantily clad Grecian goodness.
