Did they actually negotiate with the writers, or did they just want an "exmeption" as Josh put it? Because if they didn't want to agree/negotiate, then I can see why they got snubbed and World Wide Pants didn't.
Re: Thrush
The classic treatment for thrush is natural yoghurt. It can be adminstered both orally and vaginally. I'm not sure if it also treats sand, however.
Re: I Don't Buy It
What I don't buy is the new ad for Ten HD. It shows a guy walking through some attractive street scenes, and into a beautiful meadow while "I Can See Cleary" plays. In the flowery meadow, he sees an ugly "high-tech" building in the distance. He enters this building, and is now surrounded by bleak white corridors. People wearing white coats surround him, and put him in a reclining chair, and spin him around. He ends up staring at a TV screen with the Ten HD logo on it. The whole thing is very clinical, like a bad trip to the dentist.
The message of this ad appears to be that the world outside is beatiful and colourful - but if you decide to watch Ten HD, this soul-enriching experience will be replaced with sensory deprivation and possible probing by people in lab coats. You'll end up strapped into a chair, Clockwork Orange style with your eyes clamped open.

Seasons greetings, Boxcutters all!
I am slowly (very slowly) adding to my list of cities in which I have listened to Boxcutters (Melbourne, Vancouver, Hobart..) It was particularly special listening to the podcast while crossing the Burrard Inlet by sea bus to North Vancouver earlier this year.
Re: Cricket KFC ads
I think dubbing over real cricket footage while not showing the actual KFC product is in fact a very devious advertising measure. So many people these days hit the 'mute' button as soon as the ad breaks start; when they play these ads during the cricket broadcast (and you have the sound off) you think play has resumed and you turn the sound back on ... just in time to hear all about KFC and realise you've been duped. Watching the test match this afternoon I noticed they didn't play any of these as the first ad in an ad break, making the deception even more successful.
Wily bastards!

Capsule = oral Pessary = vaginal
I think they're trying to be clever/funny by trying to emphasise how easy it is to use a capsule and failing dismally.
