Are spammers getting really lazy now?
Just found this in my spam box for my gmail account. Honestly, I’d buy whatever it is you’re trying to sell me, whoever you are (the picture doesn’t show it but it was from “unknown sender”) , wherever you are. Technorati tags: spam
Smoke free cars
From tomorrow in Tasmania, it is illegal to smoke in cars where there are passengers under 18 years old. Those caught breaking the new laws face on the spot fines of $110, or, if they take the matter to court and are found guilty, a maximum fine of $2,200 (although for the first 3 months [...]
Al-Qaeda = A Gentlemen’s Club
Al Qaeda linked Pakistani militant commander Baitullah Mehsud denied his involvement in the assassination of Benazir Bhutto. Mehsud heads the Tehrik-i-Taliban in Pakistan (TTP), a newly launched united movement of Taliban and Al Qaeda militants in Pakistan’s tribal region bordering Afghanistan.

Wankers needed
Apparently there is a severe shortage of sperm donors. The Royal Hospital for Women has had no new sperm donors for more than 12 months.

Merry Christmas

A trick of the light?
Flicking through the SMH site yesterday, I noticed this gig review, for The Triffids. Sounds really interesting, I thought, wow, a Triffids reunion (admittedly difficult as the key person, David McComb, died a few years ago).
