Totally ballsed it up

The on-going saga of the Corby family never fails to provide good copy, and the current legal stoush between former friends Mercedes Corby and Jodie Power is certainly providing similar voyeuristic reading.

I admit it. I had a view about Schappelle before her guilty verdict was handed down, although it mostly had to do with wanting her to stop plucking her eye brows. I know she's short of things to do, but FOR THE LOVE OF GOD Schappelle - take up Sudoku! The constantly startled expression on her face, as a result of her eyebrows being plucked approximately 5 centimetres too high should be, quite frankly, warning enough to foolhardy drug traffickers. Possibly with a strap line saying "know what you're getting yourself in for?"


However, anti trafficking marketing collateral aside, the current Corby vs Power throw down is compelling reading. If for no other reason that the recent SMH on-line article quoting Ms Power's mother, Margaret Campbell, as saying that after she allegedly discovered she'd been used as a drug mule by Ms Corby that she rang Ms Corby in a fury and said "Never do anything like that again or I will cut your balls out and hand them to you on a silver platter."

Now, I'm no doctor. Indeed I don't work in any of the allied health professions but I am prepared to stake my reputation on the fact that Ms Corby is probably not the owner of a pair of male reproductive organs.

I would suggest that the chance of Ms Corby being a cross dressing man and it not having been picked up (or indeed used in evidence to date) is fairly slim. And I would suggest that even the law of averages would not be in favour of her being an hermaphrodite. I am prepared to state, for the record your honour, that Ms Corby is probably a woman. A woman not built with male genitals. And certainly not a woman built with male genitals that have yet to drop, if the quote of "cut your balls out" is accurate.


I understand that some young boys can suffer from this medical condition, but again I question whether a 32 year old woman would suffer from the same condition.

While I'm not really a gambler I'm prepared to play the odds on this one. If Ms Campbell's quote is correct, she would have us believe that Ms Corby is a 32 year old cross dressing man with undropped testicals, or a 32 year old hermaphrodite with undropped testicals. I would imagine both of these scenarios to have fairly long odds.

I'm not from Queensland, as I believe Ms Campbell to be, so can't report with any reliability that the curriculum of junior school science is the same as it is in NSW. So, I can't be entirely confident that Ms Campbell's attention to detail during Year 9 biology was questionable. But I can be confident that in suggesting Ms Corby has "balls" that Ms Campbell has failed to notice what most toddlers notice immediately.

It also makes you wonder why if Ms Corby is currently mounting a defamation suit against Ms Power's mother, for calling her a bloke.

That will be the next lawsuit. REading about this one has been good for a laugh, Mercedes is still staying she's never smoked pot let alone dealt it, yet we see her with a pipe in her mouth lol

I thought the balls comment was funny too. I had the same thoughts you did. Maybe Jodie's mum smoked some of that whacytabaccy

Even stoned, I would imagine most people would understand women don't have testicals.

Sadly, the SMH did not report Mercedes' response to the alleged ball-cutting threat. I like to believe she retorted "go on then..."

Thanks for dropping by.
