I love the museum of most things. I collect anything cool and try to display it rather than hide away.


In the midst writing a Fantasy Memoir, all shall be revealed, I can already hear the "oh that explains it!"

My maternal Jewish family name is Samuel, they were East London Russians and illegal immigrants arriving in the late 1880s.

They were not Zionists, they were not looking for the Promised Land.

They were escaping death.
I found this list drawn up by my mother, I don't know when.

Her writing was a thing of beauty, if not legible.

Deciphering, I'm reading

A plate from the wonderful book by Jessie Mothersole - Hadrian's Wall, published in 1922.

When there’s a mass shooting in the US, Trump rushes to blame the left.

He stokes fear & division and rarely says anything about the victims.

In Canada, all party leaders went to pay their respects in Tumbler Ridge.

They held hands, placed flowers & showed unity.

That’s how it should be done.

I thought they had stopped these stupid high speed pursuits?

Isn't that why there are CCTV throughout the Sydney metropol?

In the early morning, ICE raided the elementary school bus stop during the pick-up time, causing panic among the 4th and 5th graders. This unfortunate event took place outside the Woodland Village Apartments in Lindenwold, New Jersey.

Following a verbal confrontation with Angus in Goulburn some years ago, I have followed his political career with interest.

In my opinion he's achieved nothing of merit during his tenure as a member of parliament for, not just his constituency but also for Australia.

What have I missed?

"Agreement" didn't reach officers.

Don't you just love the implication that NSW Police officers need to be told not to abuse Muslims at prayer. The implication that assaulting Muslims at prayer is routine.

The NSW Police are nothing but a bunch of violent racists. #auspol

You can't prove received wisdom wrong if you don't try... and you've got to give China credit for not being afraid to try. A step on the way to serious reduction of shipping emissions by 2050? Or an expensive experiment with niche coastal uses? Time will tell!

Tony Abbott just told ABC that Angus Taylor will bring in a more “Australian” energy policy. 

I can’t think of a more Australian energy policy that using the greatest solar and wind resources in the world found right here at home.
