Some things

When I saw Bush awarding Howard with the 'highest civilian honour' (interesting, that phrase is used in all the ceverage I've seen. I wonder what the medals title is..?) it occured to me, like an epiphany, our ex-pm and their ex-president should fuck off to the same nursing home together so they can sit about and congradulate each other on jobs well done. "Hey, without you, I never could have gone into that war. Just imagine how many 'mooslims' would still be alive?" "Gee, thanks for screwing the world economy by the way dubya. If you didn't, everyone would have realised that Australias artificially inflated economy was a short term soloution". "I started missing you John as soon as Kevin went and signed that Kyoto 'bill'." "By the way, what is the G20?"

Funny story this:
There's a track I use along the back of the Northside beach to get down past the crowds over the silly season. The first half is 2WD driveable, the second half is fairly soft deep sand. This particular day, I just rode the first half, because I was only there for a quick peek at the surf (I'd just been to Southside, the surfing beach, and it was a bit average). Anyhow, I saw a kid catch a wave and thought it might make a nice shot, but I figured I'd watch another set before I got my camera out.

Along the beach folks were playing in the sun, having a hit of cricket, putting their skin cells in trauma, sitting under giant parasols or in those silly little pop tents. Right in front of my spot in the bushes were a few blond girls in bikinis sitting on their towels looking out to sea. This is the other reason I was reluctant to get my camera out. From my relatively 'discreet' location, it could have looked quite suspect.

Anyhow, all of a sudden, Kaleena turned around. Turns out she was out enjoying the beach, and just happened to be right in front of me. Anyhow, that was a nice chance to catch up, and I otherwise wouldn't have gone in. So that was nice.

In the present though, I'm watching letterman and catching mosquitos, and soon (probably around 1:00 AM) I'm going to roll up and feed the horse. By the way, don't you hate when you open your hand to see if you got the mozzie, and then it just flies off? Very annoying.

Peace be with you,
M'

P.S. This post is only here to get out of the constancy of people telling me to hurry it up; I started writing a post a week and a half ago, and it's on my phone still (I need to stick it on the computer to edit and write the rest.)

P.P.S. An American comedian just ripped off Wil Anderson's sketch complaining about losing Howard, and substituting Bush; he passed the whole sketch off as his own! What a tool! That is all.
