My wife and are very fortunate to have been able to travel extensively and frequently. This trip on the Trans-Siberian Railway was the longest and one of the stand-out experiences of our lives. These days, with travel having been so severely limited, it is good to be able to share memories of past journeys and past experiences.

Lines are drawn on maps and continents carved up according to some pre-ordained or directed order: create a country, a state or a new political identity by drawing a pen line on a map.

Someone, somewhere, decides that this is where a border will go and so shall it be. The worker ants scurry off to carry out the master's orders.

When we line up to vote we do so because we naively believe that our vote means something. We listen to the policies and promises of each political party and decide which is the best fit for us.

When Scott Morrison famously walked into Parliament in 2019 with his piece of coal and declared: " This is coal. Do not be afraid of it." and delivered his short speech on its merits, I believed him.

The Devil Didn’t Make ’Em Do It, and Neither Did the Pandemic. 

A spectre is haunting discussions of the economy — the spectre of Covid agency. Almost from the very moment unprecedented government actions were announced worldwide to stop the spread of Covid-19, people became accustomed to referring to the virus as a sentient being with the ability to bend people to its will.

The killing of Gaddafi 10 years ago has resulted in the death of the nation of Libya and the destruction of its people

Muammar Gaddafi led his nation to become the wealthiest in all of Africa. A decade after his demise, it is riven by tribalism, terrorism and slavery, all because the West could not allow an Arab leader to succeed.

I have been thinking a lot about the impact that music has made on my life.  Romanic moments when you danced with your loved one , sat and listened to a song together, been in a crowd when a choir sang a particular song .    The piece of music that the Organist played for your wedding.   Your choice .. your favourite song that meant something to you and your sweetheart.

During WW2, my grandmother used to take me to every official event that was held to honour our fighting servicemen and women. That is what grandmothers did and I loved the excitement of a day out and the chance to see a dive bomber in flight and a day to see a Vultee Vengeance. 

I was 8 years old and it was 1943.

Recently, a young man I know preparing for the HSC had to write an essay contrasting the saying that Australia discovered its identity at Gallipoli from both a traditional and revisionist viewpoint.

Russia’s northernmost town, where people get KNOCKED OVER by Arctic winds and get power from a FLOATING NUCLEAR reactor. A cold Aussie beer or a vodka on ice? I will leave it up to you.

On July 28, the Wall Street Journal ran the article “Why Is the FDA Attacking a Safe, Effective Drug?” In it, it was outlined the potential value of the antiparasitic drug ivermectin for Covid-19, and the authors questioned the FDA’s vigorous attack on ivermectin.

Here is the authors' response.

One of our most dearly beloved readers is celebrating his 89th birthday today.   Malcolm recently said to me that  "  I lived a childhood that was so uneventful that it was what some would say was safe.  It was happy... kind. I never knew anything other than happiness. Life was carefree and exciting, for although war clouds were gathering there was no hint of concern that I could detect. "
