Come Fly With Me

Well it's been a heck of a week. Flying out to Adelaide on Monday for most of the week, driving in and out of the city and going north, south, north, south etc. On top of that, a dust storm blew up and across east and blanketed Sydney in an eerie red haze before travelling north to cover Queensland in it's blanket.

Travelling as often as I do, I have started taking notice of some things at the airport. First off, people don't like seeing someone breeze past the regular check-in line and go into the "priority" line and get served first. Until I was able to do it, I was with them. Now when I do it, I see the looks some people have on their faces.

Big Red Car

I would have to say that one of my pet peeves is other drivers on the road. Not all drivers. Some out there are quite good. No, my annoyance is with drivers who think it's a good thing to drive 20 KM below the speed limit in the right lane of the freeway.

*CENSORED TO PROTECT THE CHILDREN*

I don't claim to be very political. Like most people, I "know" how the Government should have handled this situation or that situation or how better to spend the tax payer's money. I do admit that I like watching the late night airing of Question Time in Parliament, but not for the political insights, but because what usually takes place is worse then the bickering and fighting that took place in the Big Brother house. It's hilarious how much like children these adults can act. "Mr Speaker, that person didn't answer my question.", "Mr Speaker, that person completely gave us the run around", "Mr Speaker, that person made fun of me." to which the speaker will reply with "Will the Member for *insert constituency here* answer the question." and "The Member for *insert constituency here* will leave the floor for 2 hours." and so on. It's massive joke, and these people are running the country.

9, 10 Here We Go Again

Well, it's been a little while since I posted last, partly because I've been rather ill lately and partly because of other things, the birth of my niece for one. Anyway, as I've been sick, I made a trip to the supermarket to pick up one of those travel packs of tissues, the small ones.
