Can I have a TV in my bathroom please?
I’m in Beijing now, for the next few days. Checked into the hotel early this morning to shower, change, grab a couple of hours sleep etc, before going out this afternoon to do some tourist stuff, and meet up with one of my Chinese colleagues for some dinner. Normally I have showers, but in this [...]
Clutching at straws
I think this is very much a case of that. 3 families are preparing to sue the Victorian government and its roads department for allegedly failing to prevent the deaths of loved ones who jumped from a bridge, in these cases Melbourne’s Westgate bridge. On February 5 2009, 17-year-old Allem Halkic took his own life [...]
Oh shit! So it doesn’t only happen in jokes
This is the sort of thing you think has got to be a joke, surely it couldn’t happen in real life? Doctors in Peru amputated the healthy leg of an 86-year-old man, then amputated the other leg when they realised their mistake. He went in to have his right leg removed as it had an [...]

Seems she’s gone through a rough patch, and according to someone associated with her, [...]
Feeling blue
Apparently some people are so taken by the planet Pandora in the movie “Avatar” that they are getting depressed and having suicidal feelings about not being able to go there. All I can say to them is “get a life”!
Rooting robots
I’ve just been watching Battlestar Galactica, with all its Cylons, the machines that evolved into human form. It seems that we are closer to that fictional universe than you might think. Meet Roxxxy the rootable robot – a sex robot which was introduced at the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas this week, a [...]
Mind boggling
Fascinating to read what some of our school teachers get up to in their spare time. Nepean High School teacher’s assistant Sharron Anne Lee, 40, was involved in a threesome at a drunken New Year’s Eve sex party which later descended into a brawl. Her bail hearing was told Lee, had fought with her girlfriend [...]
