Just 64 days into 2011... 301 to go....
Already this year we have seen major earthquakes in beautiful Christchurch and The Philippines, revolution in the Middle East, the overthrow of an Egyptian dictator and we watch in horror as a Libyan madman turns on his own people. Australia's worst disaster with the flooding of Bris Vegas and Queensland. As if that wasn't enough our hearts filled with fear as Cyclone Yasi headed for our shores.... we've seen flooding in Victoria and a cyclone in Darwin... fires in WA threatened its capital...
Anna showed she has a heart while Julia showed she does not.... Kev confirmed he was an idiot as he waded through sewage and dirty flood water to impress a gullible media pack and then there's Tony.... not a man who thinks much before he speaks... I confess I prefer his fellow Rhodes Scholar, Malcolm...
And amidst all of this, the suggestion of a death penalty for Julian Assange described by Hills as "a bigger threat to the US than Osama Bin Laden"!! Has he really done something to justify such an enthusiastic response? A Western Government gone mad! A nation living in fear that responds to increasing world animosity with threats of war and violence yet never once stops to ask itself "why?"
And then there is the iPad2 and the bionic eye roll out, the controversial NBN and let's not forget Moonageddon!
What's next? The flood levy, carbon tax, higher inflation, falling house prices, higher taxes... oh joy....
OH and while I remember... don't forget.... its only 295 shopping days to Christmas....
