Shellharbour

campbelltown by the sea. Located on the South Coast of NSW, Australia. Looks good out the train window. Do not be fooled. Buy real estate at your own peril. Your children will be likely affected by the mercury from the Port Kembla smelter. If the mercury doesn't get to you, the herione problem certainly will.
Shellharbour is a place in NSW where you might find some shells on the beach amongst the needles.

the Commitments

Popular early 90s movie about a group of people from Dublin who start a band and experience some relief from their mundane and sometimes dismal lives. This movie had a very popular soundtrack.
Last night I watched the Commitments. It was full of Irish sterotypes but entertaining nonetheless.

Tyra Banks

Surprisingly naive model/talk show host. Embarrassed herself trying to ilicit an apology from Naomi Campbell on the 'Tyra' show for supposedly being rude to her about 15 years ago. Tyra also suggested that Naomi was in part responsible for her retirement from modelling.
Tyra Banks can be quite silly
