I still have the robot on the job. Here you can see the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery . And here is a poem: Soliloquy for One Dead Bruce Dawe Ah, no, Joe, you never knew the whole of it, the whistling which is only the wind in the chimney's smoking belly, the footsteps on the muddy path that are always somebody else's. I think of your limbs down there, softly becoming mineral, the life of grasses, and the old love of you thrusts the tears up into my eyes, with the family aware and looking everywhere else. Sometimes when summer is over the land, when the heat quickens the deaf timbers, and birds are thick in the plumbs again, my heart sickens, Joe, calling for the water of your voice and the gone agony of your nearness. I try hard to forget, saying: If God wills, it must be so, because of His goodness, because- but the grasshopper memory leaps in the long thicket, knowing no ease. Ah, Joe, you never knew the whole of it... I like Bruce Dawe. He just my be my favourite Austral...

Sometimes, I wish we could turn back to the times when we had little television and more outdoors in our lives.
by the way, how are you and Jen and Henry and Ezra? couldnt be regular this past week so, waiting for new pictures of all four of you :-))
I played a game of real tennis in that building once - or more accurately I stood with the weird shaped racket in my hand watching the ball zing past me while I tried to figure out the rules.
Nice posts all week too. Sorry, it's hard for me to write, even comments. (Does that make me a "writer"?)
Was it smashed at Real Franco (Barcelona man) Tennis, or drunk? Who could tell...
I see enough of them in weekly tabloids here.
If one of them went on a gun rampage I can understand it, but it seems to be "Brad drops kids off at school", "Angelina wants to purchase another child" or "Brad and Angelina scratch their arse"...
Honestly, who cares about this stuff?
-Writing is not for the lazy. :)
So much for the Brangelina stuff and hopefully it ends soon...the news and them ehehe. :D
You have been more than regular with the posts and pictures and Thanks a Ton for that... :-))
