One seldom discovers a true believer that is worth knowing.


Fortunately St David's church spire is blocking the hideously ugly functionalist tripe of a building on the corner of Liverpool and Murray Street.

Quick tip for new players: Google is your friend. If you have a question, ask Google.

Roddy, it's a big ad for an employment service. Probably powered by work for the dole people on hamster wheels.

Sue, I used to have to go to the World Book encyclopaedias to get some answers, now I Google 'em.

Priyanka, I think that people struggled prior to the Internet.

That might explain the endless wars...

Ah, Joe, you never knew the whole of it...

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 have a tip for those of you burdened with the great, unceasing weight of parenthood. I have a new recipe, in the vein of the quick microwaved chocolate cake . Get this, microwaved potato chips . I gave them a run on Sunday, Henry liked the so much I did it again last night. Tonight, I shall be experimenting with sweet potato.

It's pretty simple, take the potato. Slice it thinly (it doesn't have to be too thin, but thin enough). Lay the slices on the microwave plate, whack a bit of salt over the top and nuke the buggers for five minut
