Shane Warne has signed a sponsorship deal with a phone texting company.
ug.
(for those going, 'huh?', Warne is a bad boy cricket player who has become well known for his off the pitch antics. He apparently liked to send sleazy text messages to women that he wanted to sleep with. His wife was not amused.)

Oh dear god Warnie. He's a good chap, really, just really, really not too bright upstairs.
When my brother was dying, the starlight foundation organised for him to meet the Australian Cricket Team, and Shane Warne was really nice, he stayed on after everyone had gone and shook hands with him and had a proper chat and was really geniune and nice, so I think fondly of him.
Even though he seems like a sleazebag.
And he kissed Madga at the tsunami telathon. And the whole water rention pill scandal. These days I just find him amusing, like a dog humping a stuffed toy.

'These days I just find him amusing, like a dog humping a stuffed toy.'
well said.
But nice to know that everyone has a soft side...

Ohhhhh, *so* off!! Have you seen the Advanced Hair ad where his mate gets the text at the end, and says 'it must be for you Warny?' This stuff has to be a bloke's idea, I just cringe every time I see it....And I keep waiting for his next faux pas, so to speak!!
