Clankings from kitchens and purrs from the moggy
Luxury paper, this tea and the Doggies
Watching the slow death of News’s right wing
These are a few of my favourite things

When the camps riot
Due to insight
That they’ll die in jail
I simply remember I’m here and not there
And then I don’t hear them wail.

Little squirts of serotonin, endorphins and oxytocin.
And little animal pictures that make you think that come in the email each day.

Cheer up Firsty.
Just be glad you are not Alan Joyce or the G&L mardi gras Floatmakers Do they make a flying fairy kangaroo float? How are they going to fly now? Do they make a Cardinal Pull float with a bon voyage message attached? Gloria has been doing his bit to earn a float; and no one knows whether fred nile is still alive let alone still in parliament and would anybody miss his float?
Wouldn’t it be nice if a benefactor, (such as the union movement), gave $50 to every one of the 80,000 people who have lost their job since september, and asked them to have a sign out the front of where they used to live, when they had a job, thanking everyone who voted for tony or green? They should have a float.

Damn you FD.
Preemptive ‘preenactment’ = coffee spurting out nose.
Then no “e” in whisky made me drop the mug!

Top work Andybob.
I’ve now got an earworm to go with the soggy keyboard.
