Paspaley Arsonist Caught

ABC is reporting that the fire was intentionally set, and a young bloke will be appearing in court today facing charges for intentionally starting the fire. Allegedly, he lit the fire with a cigarette lighter and hid in the trees watching it burn.

Some damage was done to Paspaley's historical pearl sheds, pearl racks were burnt out creating a massive black cloud over Kimberley. It could've of been much worse if not for the efforts of the local fire department.

This is turning out to be quite a shit year for Paspaley Pearls.

Awwwwwww. Can't say I give a shit about paspaley's shit year.

How some people feel about Paspaley is irrelevant. They have done more for the South Sea pearl industry than any other South Sea pearl industry. There is also a lot of history in Broome that should be preserved.

Couldn't have happened to a better bloke. Nick is the most arrogant SOB walking God's green earth. Somebody should sink his "fleet" too!

You can include also the arrogant thugs that work for him.

One day when I have the time, I'll get myself some glass rods and a bunsen burner to make a Walter Moers bluebear lampwork bead to use as an enhancer on a near perfect strand of Indonesian transgrafts (12+mm and I really own it, two strands of them actually although one is slightly smaller). That'll be fabulous.

That will be MY bluebear lampwork bead. Actually, as an enhancer I can wear it like that to Paspaley events or leave it be for other occasions. Anyhow, I actually keep most of my lampwork beads separately as works of art although some of them do have enhancer bails in case I want to irritate somebody like Nick Paspalis

I'm presuming this will make his paying of the back taxes on his beach-side Sydney mansion a little harder. Poor bloke.

Can someone tell me who the arrogant thugs that work for Nicky are?

The Pearl Professor said...

I concur. Who are the "arrogant thugs" anonymous is referring to?

There seems to be some bitterness on these comments toward Paspaley. I oft wonder if it may be simple jealousy or letting of steam in a safe way.

No, Oh Magnanimous Professor, the hate is REAL.

So what are YOU doing reading and writing into the comment section, Anonymous Genius??? YOU need to a brain. Shut the #%&* up with that ubiquitous "get a life" line. Are YOU getting paid to read this? No, didn't think so.

Ichun, those thugs are anyone who has pulled a Paspaley Pay check, from the CEO to the greenest pearl chipper, they have to pass an arogancy test first!

no not getting paid, came past this site by accident and find it hard to believe there is a whole website dedicated to slagging of a jeweler...it's too funny. What a bunch of haters, get of your asses and make something of yourselves if you are so jealous of anyone who has sucess.

ichun said...

Got it. Thanks.

So you're STILL reading this, and writing into the comments, only now it is "by accident", huh Anonymous Genius? You must not get around the net very much because if you did you'd know that there are thousands of blogs/websites dedicated to slagging everything under the sun. In fact, I've just discovered another subject in need of a good slagging, YOU!

Hey, weren't you ON your ass in front of the computer when writing your comments? Why do you hate people who hate Paspaley and his cronies? That makes you a "hater" too. And according to you, ANYONE who has success, even a soulless greedy bastard, should be admired and envied! Even the Wall Street clowns?

Anonymous said...

I personally don't hate people I have never met, that's a bit phsyco in my opinion. You sound like a very angry individual, maybe you were not breast fed as a child who knows ;).

I'm sure there are some nice people on wall street but sounds like you only like hanging with bums??

Again, still ON your ass and NOT making something of yourself, Anonymous Genius Troll?!?
