A Rose by any other seriously bad pun

Ethan Switch - Thursday, 5 June 2003 - 06:31:27 - print it raw

Emma Rose Reeves is a supposed half-sister to Ted 'Theodore' Logan, Keanu Reeves. Both were fathered by the same man, in this case, a Samuel Reeves. In a recent issue of Australian scrag mag, Woman's Day, Emma's pull quote reads: "I feel good about having made the first move. I've done my bit" in relation to the fact that she is not amongst the circle of siblings - Kim and Karina - Keanu does hang around with and acknowledges.

Throughout the questionable article Emma Rose is cited as not really wanting to bother Keanu more than what is expected of an estranged family like theirs. No less than three times does this thought cross the lines. "But I don't want anything from him - not money, not fame by association..."

The whole twisted article reeks of an abscess of conflicting forethoughts and motives. Despite having snuck backstage to a Dogstar concert Emma Rose seemingly wants nothing more than a little acknowledgement.

Not only does her name make an appearance in the rag mag Woman's Day but then makes the rounds in the pages of NewWeekly and WHO Weekly, since no mention is made otherwise to being paid for her Woman's Day interview, Emma Rose has broken three of her wishes.

Red Riding Trilogy: This is an attempt to understand the newish British television series Red Riding. Due to the regional accents, the muttering, the byzantine plot, and that British inability to provide subtitles, I am writing a detailed synopsis to get my head around this excellent television show. In short, it is nothing but spoilers, spoilers, spoilers...
Kitchen Antics - Chicken in Faux Ragoût: Ladder of flavour? A few rungs above bland. This can be constructed & delivered in less than 30 minutes, depending on your aptitude with a knife.
Lassitude abandons the Throwing Knives: Down on the chamber pot, the percolating smells brew up quite the nasal fest. From the wafting fumes, the air solidifies partial sweaty rock and musty punk, a taste hinting at delicious pockets of after-aftertaste, and the not so floral punch of an undone music interview leaves the tongue wanting something else.
