Harry Markle, the soyboy previously known as Prince – seems to have very heartfelt lamentations over this poor little place being plundered by Global Mining companies at the expense of the trapped, tortured and sad citizens and hopes that President Trump realises that it is all his fault.
Chunga Changa? Did Harry have his gullibility guage set to Off?

I was 7 years old when the war broke out. I don't remember much of those years except they just rolled along but I do remember when the American Soldiers arrived in Auckland and a very fancy ice cream shop was opened in New Market and sold ice cream in a cone and with all sorts of fancy toppings.
The very first ice cream I had ever seen or tasted.

A giant Kangaroo has been terrorising the residents of an isolated outback Australian Community and locals fear it is the first of a new super breed of Rogue Roos infected by a mutant strain of Covid-19.
The town, situated on the edge of Sturts Stony Desert in the arid South West of Queensland, had its first night of horror in December last year.The Local Police Officer, who has requested anonymity , said that he received a phone call at the station at 2am on the morning of December 2nd.
"At first I thought it was one of the lads who'd had a few too many beers" he stated.
"But then I realised this guy was for real - he was genuinely scared."
The officer sped the 50 kilometres from his station along the track that led to the isolated barren homestead. What he saw will stay etched in his mind forever.

When I was a kid, I used to go to the movies on a Saturday morning. Or, as my late Uncle used to call it, The Flicks. Others called it “ The Pictures “ or “ The cinema” … no matter, we went to see a movie and it cost a shilling.
We would all sit down in our seats, the lights would dim and a movie of a Lady on a horse would appear. We would stand up for the Lady on the horse and sing about saving the Queen.
Only then could we sit down again and wait for the Lady with the Ice creams to come around. It was magical. The crowded theatre; the Lady on the horse, the lady with the ice creams and the lady with the torch that led latecomers to their seats.
The room would hush as the feature started. A sense of excitement; trepidation and awe as we allowed our eyes to adjust to the dim within and the curtains to part. That was a moment of magic to me: the parting of the massive drapery that shielded the screen from view until it was time to behold the wonder of the Flick that would flicker and send us to another world.

What a sorry situation we have when some poor chap would rather pretend he is a girl than compete against his fellow males. He knows he is not good enough to win in the sports for men so he has to take on the girls. What kind of situation have we got when the Authorities who run these Sporting events are allowing this to have even started let alone continue.
How sad to need to cheat in order to win by being a loser.

When I was a child, a Rainbow was something that gave me pleasure. According to my Sunday School Teacher, it was the sign that God was watching over us and that we were being looked after by Him.
To me, it was a magnificent display of Nature that all was good in the world. God may or may not have been the architect; but, whoever was in charge of its creation was a very canny bloke indeed.
Now, my Rainbow has been stolen. Misappropriated.
Like so many words and so many things these days, the purity and joy of words has been manipulated and denigrated. Symbols have been distorted and twisted into things that are not as I remember them to be.
I want my Rainbow back.

When works of Fiction become works of fact we have a problem. And this is what is happening globally with the Greens, Greta, Sir David Attenborough and the United Nations pushing their barrow of bull to eager readers of Fan Fiction throughout the world.
They are peddling pulp fiction to the masses and the masses are lapping it up. What makes it worse is that the media are their publicists and doing a damn fine job of promoting their garbage to the gullible gang of no hopers who swallow their garbage hook line and sinker.
Yes. a few mixed metaphors there, but your get my drift.

Back in 1851, the great Australian Gold Rush began. While the California Gold rush had begun some years before in 1848, the newly formed Colony of New South Wales had covered up the news of any gold find in Australia because it didn’t want the poor colonists to bugger off in search of wealth and abandon their work in the emerging townships and cities.
However, when the Colonial Government saw what potential wealth could be had from prospecting for gold, they decided that it was a pretty good idea to encourage the poor, down and out, hardworking folk to head off and seek their (and the Government’s ) fortune.
Not only did the Gold rush of 1851 change the perception of Australia as a Convict Colony, it also opened the floodgates to massive migration as people from around the world sailed to these shores to “ dig up a quid “.

When democRATs are voting for a senile sniffer or a commie comrade with a dicky ticker, a fake Indian or a miniature cash hound I guess it says a lot about the mentality of the average leftie.
Crazy commos with no heart, no heritage and no brain.
I mean, seriously, Sleepy Joe is so “ woke “ that he could fall asleep on the red button, trigger a missile attack and not wake up until he arrives at the Pearly gates and says to Saint Peter “ Did I miss something? “
It is reminiscent of the one and only episode of the Simpson’s I ever watched when Homer put a doughnut on top of a red button and set off a nuclear emergency.

I follow a great blog here in Australia, started by a colourful larrikin who was, in my opinion, the Crocodile Dundee of the Aussie cartoon world and the “ cut the bullshit and speak your mind brigade “ .
He passed away over a year ago, much to the regret of so many of us who have followed his incredible site over the years. Before his passing, he asked a mate to carry on and, on a handshake, his mate accepted the lofty and considerable honour and responsibility to forge on and do what he felt was right.
This, he has done, with great respect and a hell of a lot of hard work. He has maintained all of our old mate’s work and links to his old articles. He created an online archive of some of the most memorable words and images ever to come from one man’s lifetime of imagination, passion and wicked sense of humour.
But suddenly, the handshake isn't worth the paper it isn't written upon.
