Hiya Goodlooking

M > The Moon was red, making Rai ask All, "Is this a bad sign?"

Around here it is .... One of that bugger's mate deliberately parked a 
crossed our drive last week. Don't think he appreciated me calling the 
cops. I needed them to guide my 52 point turn to drive down the footpath 
to the corner. They WERE NOT impressed

Oh yeah. I can't understand how bigots like that can function in the 
'real' world. At some point they've just gotta believe that they are a 
minority on a global level...  I can understand why Social 
scientists talk about "conflict theory" as being a mechanism of change, 
but some where - some how these bigots gotta .....  Guess the 
phrase is AAAGGGHHH

M> I hope this is the year it all turns around for you, Ray. I'd say
M> you're /long/ over-due.

Thanks Chickybabe. Years ago I gave up saying I have my 7 years bad luck 
& am looking for my 7 years good luck...

M> Remember, you still have those of us remaining upon whoo you may cry,
M> and to whom you may rant.

Unfortunately ranting gets us no where.

M> Moebius, who believes Oz got a few Puritans in with their criminals.

A friend FWed his reply from the Toowoomba's Mayor's response to his 
e-mail. She was NOT impressed with her bigoted little Alderman. Sounds 
like he was trying to increase his political profile - hope he likes the 
taste of shoe leather...

M> ... The greatest ignorance is to reject something you know nothing
M> about.

No arguments there...
