While the Arctic continues to melt at rates unprecedented in homo history our P.M Harper, an acknowledged expert on this epoch, (He sometimes inverts some terms), and his chosen General Hillier have recently espied some more pressing issues requiring our immediate attention, to wit:Danger, danger!Hijabs+burkas!Absolutely, a grave threat to toques+bald spots ad mare usque... etc.Soldiers use

Among the latest syncophantic sophmoric spinners, setting us straight on the real world, to emerge fully blown, from G2's W.H., my favourite is Fran(Frau Blucker)Townsend.In a star turn on the MSM sunday, she amplified Fearless's dictum "See,I'll git 'em.... 'Dead or alive'......'Bring it on'....I....uh.. really don't...ya know...know where he is....don't...uh... think..about it....uh...much"

In goose step with neocons everyehere,our Rt. Hon.

Stevie, our current P.M.

Once upon a time, autumn was a time of misty fruition and the harvest brought joy, made us mellow.Now, approaching the ides of September, we earthlings are subsumed in a toxic fog of fear+confusion."Sad faces, painted over with magazine smiles", but ya gotta have heart.We are sad because we are angry and our anger is rooted in what we have sown, seen through glass, darkly tinted by fear+

There are moments, even in terrible times, when laughter, our great defence against tyranny, will not suffice and this morning's news from Modena brings tears, far from idle.Although his art happily remains, a great eloquence in the commonality of our musical language is stilled.Nessun dorma, let no one sleep.Mille Gracie,Buena Sera,Addio, Luciano.

Citing security concerns at the APEC summit meetings, PM Howard announced, today, that anyone in NSW not totally enamoured of the Yellow Rose will be transported to Tasmania for the duration.In other local news, the last billabong dried up+blew away yesterday.Also, unconnected to precipitous warming, Cobber John plans to introduce an edit to the much loved Anthem by changing "Waltzing" to "

Leaving aside the sexual politics of Sen.
