I remember when I looked forward to tomorrow. Today was good fun , Yesterday was exciting and tomorrow was something that was full of anticipation. But what have we got at the moment. Nothing but more bad news and more impossible things to cope with. We have medical apartheid and it is getting worse not better.

70 years or so ago, I had a brilliant idea to take this stunning girl who I craved for, to the ballet. I hoped it would impress her because she was an accomplished pianist and came from a musical family. The ballet was a production of the Borovansky Ballet, the only Australian ballet company in existence at the time. I must have struck the right cord because that stunning girl and I got married in 1958 and are now looking forward to our 64th wedding anniversary next year with a clutch of children and grandchildren who make life worth living.

I REMEMBER WHEN Armistice Day was commemorated spontaneously, reverently and universally.
As a kid at state (primary) school we were taught about the sacrifice of the soldiers who died in the war to end all wars and assembled at 11.00am to salute the flag, the Union Jack, and have 2 minutes silence with heads bowed. That was in the 1940’s when there were many veterans of WW1 still among us.

It was 3 years ago. I had become disgruntled with and disillusioned by my inability to fully express myself on other blogs or online media, So I, with the support of my family, embarked on a journey that has been both gratifying and frustrating,
“FDA advisory panel OKs Pfizer vaccine for children 5 to 11,” announced a recent NBC News headline.
How could a panel that is supposedly composed of rational clear-headed scientists make such an inexplicable recommendation?
Social psychologist Roy Baumeister begins his book Evil: Inside Human Violence and Cruelty, with a proposition that will be counterintuitive to many: “Evil usually enters the world unrecognized by the people who open the door and let it in. Most people who perpetrate evil do not see what they are doing as evil.”

Trying to bury carbon dioxide deep underground is another fashionable green fantasy. It consumes big dollars for taxpayer subsidies but coal and gas producers will love it as it wastes energy and will increase demand for reliable energy. Artificial carbon capture is an unnecessary waste - the grasslands, forests, crops and continental shelf of Australia sequester far more carbon dioxide than Australia emits from all energy, transport, agriculture and mining sources.
The downfall of Oscar Wilde is an object lesson to all of those who would sue for defamation –be it for slander orally,or for libel in writing. A defamatory statement will be forgotten sooner or later, but any skeletons which any plaintiff suing for defamation might have hidden in the closet, will be exposed for all to see. This will apply even if the plaintiff should succeed. A case in point is that of Oscar Wilde.

In those heady days of childhood,back in the 1950's, I was like most kids. I ricocheted from one scraped knee to another. A fall off my bike and a chipped tooth, broken arm or head wound from a low flying rock hurled by a neighbourhood adversary were part of everyday life. I wore my scars with pride and valiantly returned to school the next day and limped or sighed in pain and recounted the tale of how I had been so afflicted.
