Posted by Old Tanker on 2007 03 15 at 11:44 AM • permalinkI got the Leunig & Gyan ``Billy the Rabbit’’ CD. It’s very good, musically and humorously. Leunig may have found his medium. Be sure to follow along in the booklet.
My own favorites musically are Bottle and Owed to Autumn, but I like the Australian folk/bluegrass style ; humorously perhaps the best is Precious Vote, though you get a chuckle from a lot of them.
Wildly costly even given it’s Australian dollars. I guess you’re paying for the booklet too, it’s more than your usual insert.

“Hitler’s Legacy: Islamic antiSemitism in the Middle East”, was organised by the university’s German department and publicised three weeks ago. A large attendance had been expected.
I’m not surprised the Muslims banned MAthias.
The subject of the Fusion of Nazi Ideology with Modern day Islamic extremism is a scandal and has been subjudice for too long. The arabs took to Mr Hitler like a duck to water and it was’nt just the Antisemitism they had in common.
Don’t forget that it was the Nazis after WW2 who published and translated and published Mein kampf (MY Jihad) and “the Protocols” into Arabic.
Much as Bill Clinton, Albright etc, used and financed jihadists to fight by Proxy against Serbia in Kosovo and Bosnia, (two of which turned out to be 911 bombers) through the Pakistan ISI,the OSS and the British sent EX Nazi SS to Egypt to assist them in militarising in the war against Israel.He may also be planning a trip to the middle east, Middle East snowfall shuts schools

-How much angst will there be among the Tifosi having to support Ferrari, but at the same time really not being able to stand Kimi?

They know not what they do
The Victorian Government, which proclaims it is cleanest and greenest, is pleased at a proposal to cut off-peak tolls on Melbourne’s expressways so that more cars will use the roads in these times.
The Victorian Government keeps creating barriers to the aerial baiting of wild dogs. The greenies in the government fear the spotted quolls (I kid you not, non-Aussies) will eat the baits and die. In the meantime, the wild dogs continue to feast on fresh spotted quoll meat.
The Labor party wants the high price of fuel to be decreased by cutting the tax component. They also want people to use less petrol. Petrol consumption and price are linked - people use less when the price is high. The Labor party has yet to explain how it will make petrol cheaper and cut consumption at the same time. It exposes another Labor party problem - if it cannot understand the basic laws of supply and demand, how can it expect to run an economy.
