Zombie Jesus Holiday News, and The Cole Commission.
Big event for Zombie Jesus day was playing GURPS Bunnies & Burrows with some fellow rabbits. It is a game certainly deserving of its cult-status. The night before ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
caseopaya and myself took log_reloaded out for her 21st birthday with her partner Jase and her mother and her partner (got all that?) also in attendance seeing Ross Noble at the Melbourne Town Hall. He's not bad; sort of a Northumbrian version of Billy Connoly, but not quite as funny (yet - he's still young).
Once a yearcaseopaya and I consume red meat (well, I have a taste here and there) and when most other folk in Christendom are not; Good Friday (aka "Dead Jew on a Stick Day"). This years meaty feast was Hungarian goulash. You just can't have too much paprika.
Our trustworthy Prime Minister claims that he never saw any of the 21 diplomatic cables between warning of AWB bribery claiming that AWB tricked him. But he acknowledges that he was aware that sanctions were being broken. So is he incompetent or a liar? In either case he is not fit to hold office. Trade Minister Mark Vaile knew nothing and did less as he ignored 31 cables.
Summary courtesy ofgreylock on Mark Vaile's performance
* "Incompetent" and "buck-passing" – Dennis Shanahan, The Australian
* "The Trade Minister doesn't have a clue." - Neil Chenoweth, Financial Review
* "Quietly and with an air of polite resolution, Mr Agius carved the minister up". – David Marr, Sydney Morning Herald
* " ...at best, totally naive and, at worst, frighteningly incompetent." – Michelle Grattan, The Age
* "Vaile floundered." – Matt Price, The Australian
* "It can be fairly said that Mr Vaile has probably enjoyed better days in his political career." – Kerry O'Brien, The 7.30 report
* "... a picture of incurious and incompetent ministerial oversight." – Peter Hartcher, Sydney Morning Herald
