sunday night safran

I was listening to Sunday Night Safran tonight. I love it but I always forget to tune in.

Anyway, they were discussing some kind of weird alleged local bakery crime... and segued into a story about a man, who headed down to the scene, with the intention of appearing as an 'extra' on news reports. Mr. Weinstein, from what I gathered, is a curtains & blinds salesman in Carlisle St, Balaclava. He has gained some kind of reputation, not as a salesman, but as a salesman who prides himself on being an extra... whether as an innocent 'bystander' on local news reports, or a juror on Ally McBeal.

My research skills are being used on more pressing issues tonight, but I do intend on learning more about this average joe. I'd like to perhaps have a chat with him and potentially create an exhibition using stills from his television appearances. Our desire for the 15 minutes is something that really interests me and I think I could really do a lot with.


And on a side note I just discovered Father Bob has a blog!
