This Thursday I'm honoured to be the speaker at the Prosper Australia annual dinner. If you're interested in a little rant on why there is one good tax and one good expenditure in this world please RSVP and come along. Tax is, of course, quite an issue at the moment with both the right-wing of the Labor Party and the left wing of the Liberal Party tinkering at the problem. Meanwhile New Zealanders show great stupidity by supporting tax cuts so large that it will require government debt.
Regular readers may remember that on numerous occassions I've called into question the rather dubious series of intelligence events surrounding Australia and East Timor which led to hundreds of people being killed and the dislocation of a quarter of a million human beings. At long last, the first level of admission. The Australian government has admitted that Lt-Col Lance Collins was right after all. Australia admits information to troops cut off during East Timor crisis.
Melbourne Ports MP Michael Danby is so annoyed that a fellow Jew may have a dissenting opinion on the Zionist state that he's called for Melbourne University to pull publication before the book even has a title let alone contents. Crikey of course couldn't miss out on an opportunity to publish this fact. One thing can be sure about the Zionist Right, they sure can't stand any debate, discussion or investigation of the religious state. Danby's behaviour can only be described as intellectual cowardice. But that happens when one has a religious approach to politics; sometimes one's "holy beliefs" get challenged.
Managed to get a Red Friday out last Friday week on community development and IT. A second one is due next Friday. I was hoping to have some CCNA semester 1 notes for![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
v3nu5, but that will have to wait until tomorrow night - I have my semester 1 theory exam on Wednesday night having completed the practical last week. All good.
Metcurufea from Canberra on Saturday, discussed game design over coffee. RuneQuest IV playtest group met on Sunday (seven players!), much fun even if the current playtest pack requires some serious tweaking. Labor for Refugees inspired Tampa remembrance rally was well attended in Melbourne; over 1,000 people. Other events interstate, but I have heard no news.
