Karl Stefanovic: He Is An Journalist.

Karl Stefanovic, for those who are unfamiliar, is a co-host of Today, a morning program that delivers news, sport, weather and hyperbole. He comes from a large family of news-men, his parents seemingly scattering their deep-voiced, hair-challenged spawn liberally around the globe.

Every now and then, Karl will deliver a journalistic pearl so full of insight, intelligence and sophistication that its resonant ripples stay with me all day, affecting my world view and critical stance at the deepest level.

This morning's example:

"Ooooooh. How good are beef burritos?"

Kiki, I assure you that you and Kiki are completely different.

But... but now I'm kind of distracted by the phrase "I've got a pair of kikis".

Awesome.

We had Karl in NZ for a while. He was the height of intellectualism on the noooows.

He was just so darn good that we decided to give him back.
