Another weekend gone by, went to the local pub which I spose is now on Ground Zero for the Main Target in Australia, seemed oblivious to it all, cept the secret police were on the train, wanted to see my ticket? Like why?
Cooked a nice baked crackly Roast Pork, and it's pretty good...
The fires came and burnt and went, leaving an unholy mess, the first black smoke rose so high, so close, and the wind was directly at us...
Listened in to the ABC and heard the reports where the losses were going up, and then the phone calls and getting back, and finding the wreckage like it was the World Trade towers, or a burnt church, bits of walls and smoking ruins and nothing to salvage...
There was a media blitz where the State Premier and Local Member came and commiserated and offered the Government largesse, so the large black lenses recorded and watched while we figured as the victims of fate...
There's a set of steps leading to nowhere, the reduction of junk to blackened burnt bent sagging metal and sheets of partly burnt papers...
Anyway I will just groove along, being an atheist and being so blessed to escape from that harm, having the house survive is such a relief... Going into bed that night, I was so grateful to have it... I try to clear my throat and it stays ticklish and raspy, what an irony if that's what knocks me off, useless for anything else other than amusement? The reason for the universe? I think it is...
The new house would be good if it had a fire survival quality like a big iron roof curving over where the old place was, plus covering a verandah so no leaves would stick, and a long verandah would be such a good thing to have, boxed in eves and no guttering and fireproof underneath, and connected to the services...
I get so frustrated with Dumb-Down-Ing, it's so widespread, I have gone over to ABC Radio National more, I just can't stand those quizzes and the Sally Loane and Richard Glover bits, I just go off the planet at them sometimes, and it's so self indulgent of them as well, as if what they think matters and then campaigns they wage against things like butts and getting tickets to the Rolling Stones... They're just so plebeian? L
And then we went to the Merry Muse and saw some good acts, like Damon Davies goes right off into gay blue heaven he is a wicked genius type, and Dave O'Neil is having a baby... The Merry Muse was all nice people dancing away to the live music simple and good , like the balloons dangled down for the kids, and everyone seemed to behave and have a good time, we went out for a stroll up the shops, it was good though,...
Apart from the home fireside there's all this posturing going on from the voices of the world, other opinions are creeping in and opposition is being heard, but will it stop the juggernaut, like there's this DeathWish for war, I reckon if it happens there will be hell to pay, makes you wonder what would stop it, like bullets? Seems to me the sights will be raised, the way George Dubbya-Dubbya-III keeps making it so personal...
Gore just dropped out leaving the Opposition to Bush vacant and still to be filled, who will fill it and stand in opposition, and would they ever have a ghost of a chance electorally, depends I guess on whether it's before or after the war and the consequences, I reckon Bush will be undone greatly somewhere along the line...
I reckon the right wing side of things will go into a spin, it's gotten to be so big and almighty, and the next questions in politics will be Inequality again like it should be, instead of We're greedy little selfish shits who wont pay taxes... They prefer paying into big profits cause there’s one born every minute, dumbos...
