The plight of our elderly in today's so-called caring society is something for which we should all feel shame. But how much of this neglect is of our own making? 

I watched the episode of Hardgaves on Sky News Australia the other night and he had a segment on the Royal Commission into Aged Care. Bronwyn Bishop was one of his guests. As always, she offered her rare insight into a problem that she approached with her normal passionate and insightful commonsense. One particular issue she highlighted was the role of the volunteer entertainers and musicians who gave of their time so generously and contributed a worthwhile and much eagerly anticipated injection of pleasure on their regular visits.

from poster possum magic As promised, today is the first memory lane article. Where better to start it off? 

I remember when I arrived in Australia,  all those decades ago, I had an accent that I would smile at today. Now I speak with an accent that is proudly Australian. I was a kid from Europe whose parents barely spoke English.  We were almost like kids that had been adopted by parents that we did not know and did not understand. Australia was so foreign and we arrived like orphans, my parents and me and my little brother.

A scribe writing under the nome de plume of “Gentle Jack” has posted the following on yonder site:-

" The white Western Culture is vastly superior to the other rabble cultures of the world. No wonder those human debris peoples hate the white people so much. "

It is more than about time that the White Caucasian peoples of the world stopped their cringing at every brickbat that is thrown at them by the inferior coloured races from Africa and the Middle East.

The Australian Snowy 2 hydro scheme plans to use electricity to pump water uphill to get some of that energy back by running the water downhill again.

Some Australian mining companies are planning a dry version of Snowy 2 - a huge brick-powered battery using the force of gravity to drive a generator when solar and wind energy are on strike.

When is all this nonsense going to be stopped !   It doesn't matter what  news item you read , what blog you follow , it is all the same  … things going on in this World today and I mean not just one particular place but everywhere that is so foreign to most of us .

We have just been made aware of a new Bill hopefully being passed that will disallow  a little baby who has been aborted  but is still alive  to be left by itself to cry and finally die .   Time … anything from an hour to 10 or 12 hours  and if that is not murder I would like to know what it is.     The mere fact that abortion  occurs in the first place is criminal .   Ladies .. make up  you mind in the first 3 months , do  you want this little baby  if you don't,  then is the time to say unfortunately remove this little growing creature.   Not wait until it is fully developed.   How can the medical staff  deal with this dreadful practice.?

The latest victim of this insanity is work by the brilliant Dr Seuss who has had 6 books banned for being racially insensitive. Is Winnie the Xi somehow behind it?

Appararently, one because it "contains a controversial illustration of an Asian man holding chopsticks and a bowl of rice with the text a “Chinaman who eats with sticks."

That it was a man from China using chopsticks is immaterial – it is racist.

My kids grew up on Dr Suess.

We have reached the stage where the overreach of politicians and political activists has become laughable were it not so dangerous.
