Dear Individual,

You disappoint me. You truly do.
Imagine, I was beginning to take you seriously,
as a reasoned, intelligent debater.

You are a silly sausage and I shall leave you to
splutter in your own grease.

Well Lexi,
at least you stop at ridicule rather than fully display your lack of judgement on matters integrity unlike our resident juvenile paul1405. I don't suppose you know of any plans for a play by Williamson featuring the ruinous Rudd & Gillard & Co ?

"I don't suppose you know of any plans for a play by Williamson featuring the ruinous Rudd & Gillard & Co?"

The Prodigal Amigos?

Julia Kelly and Gang?

Or a re-make of Bonnie and Clyde? Choose your Julia title :(

Dear Individual,

If you don't like my opinion of you,
you can always improve.

Is there any chance of getting back to topic ?

Gillard: tough or incredibly head-strong ? Perceptive or impulsive ? Far-sighted or just grabbing the first, most catchy, 'solution' that comes to hand, then half-thinks through the most obvious dumb-@rse problem which might arise, afterwards ?

Like East Timor as a refugee centre, i.e. encourage every refugee in the world who can, to get to Indonesia, catch the ferry to West Timor (which -gosh, who would have known? - is in Indonesia), stroll across the border to East Timor (gosh - who would have thought they were on the same island ?) and claim refugee status.

Today's feminist, or just another Labour Party opportunist, in the mould of Obeid and Thomson and Christ-knows-how-many-others, but one able to use 'feminism' ? So slush fund organiser or Emily's list angel ?

My vote always - until now - has gone ultimately to the Labor Party. My local member will still get my vote.

But these half-wits have persuaded me not to give my Senate vote to them. And, on the whole, I don't think they deserve to stay in government. Maybe not for many parliamentary terms into the future.

Sorry, Lexi, love.

Joe

err wrong Murdoch. He is an 1890s detective from Toronto Canada.
It is on Foxtel 113. Interesting twist in that he develops what are now
modern forensic tests at scene of crime. It is a Canadian production.

Re economics, the problem is we have been on a 150 year binge on growth
and people just consider growth like we have had to be the normal thing.
Well it isn't normal and the credit it depended on has gone with the GDP.
I am at present reading a long paper on the five stages that we have
experienced to get to our present position.
When I finish reading it I will put up my thoughts and give the link
to it. It has clarified my mind on the subject.
I remember many years ago when jobs started to be outsourced to Japan
at that time, then China, saying that there are people who are
content, and best able to work at factory jobs as process workers and
then go home to their families.
Surely we have to provide work for them ?
