Looking out the door, I see the rain
Fall upon the funeral mourners
Parading in a wake of sad relations
As their shoes fill up with water
Maybe I'm too young
To keep good love from going wrong
But tonight you're on my mind
So you'll never know

Took a while, but I finally found a gadget buried in my office, that I haven’t seen for two years. Was just about ready to call upon the services of Johnny Wishbone to divine its location

THIS. If it wasn't for the gun law legislation post Port Arthur (and credit where it's due) Howard would be one of the most reviled PMs of all. Weaponised racism for political gain instead of slapping it down and Australia has paid an enormous price for 30 years as a result.

Review time, as I use a recent global trip to test out Simify's Global eSIM service for speed and reliability purposes... as well as a little fun on the way.

Simify Global eSIM Review - Alex Reviews Tech
Simify’s Global eSIM could make a lot of sense if your travel plans incorporate a lot of countries – but much less so if it’s only a handful.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

I can't seem to face up to the facts
I'm tense and nervous, and I can't relax
I can't sleep 'cause my bed's on fire
Don't touch me, I'm a real live wire

Perfect day to hit the surf at Thirteenth Beach early while there’s still a bit of cloud cover, now it’s time to flee back to some air-conditioning

I've interviewed for work and my book, ppl who waited, or stayed to defend on catastrophic fire days. Every single person regrets not leaving. Every one. #vicfires
If it’s safe to leave, leave now. If VIC Emergency suggests you should leave, please leave
