It pays to be obvious, especially if you have a reputation for subtlety.


Isn't it always the way? You come home, you've lost your voice, you have to get the dinner on and feed the tired an cranky masses, and there's a bloody robot in the kitchen!

Not only that, but the robot seems to have developed a thing for the rubbish bin. It's very creepy.

Great photo and post.

Came here by way of Lisa in NZ.

Maybe the robot was built with a random garbage disposal part or two....

Great colors.

Henry's costume is just in time for Purim today!
I didn't see any robot kids on the streets of Jerusalem today. Henry and Jen could come here and give lessons in creativity.

Of course! Robot are in my kitchen ALL the time.

Oh, right! I'm lying. But I would LOVE to have such a robot in my kitchen. And that's the truth.

Wonderful costume!

Kylie, very rarely he does.

Jim, no, but he did demand grapes...

KL, Jen and Henry made it together.

John, it could well explain the attraction.

Kitty, I often laugh at them. Not so much at 5 am though.

Henry would like purim, I think.

Jackie, it was easier than when he was nude, put the box (minus eye holes) and ran straight into the wall!

Three times.

Megan, I never even knew that robots had toes.

Babzy, sometimes he appears to malfunction though. Especially around dinner time.

YEGTG, well, the robot is beginning to have some use in the kitchen. Just the other day he helped me make damper. And he always helps mix the pancake batter.

He clearly is blessed to be growing up in the Jen and Kris household.

Elaine, he might tell you different. Just this morning, he felt it supremely unfair that I'd stop him from drawing on the table (in a literal sense).

April, maybe he's a cyborg?

Hold me now, oh hold me now, until this hour has gone around. And I'm gone on the rising tide, to face Van Dieman's Land

Theme Thursday again, and this one is rather easy. I am Tasmanian, you see, and aside from being all around general geniuses - as I have amply described previously - we are also very familiar with the concept of WATER. Tasmania is the ONLY island state of an ISLAND continent. That means, we're surrounded by WATER. That should help explain why I take so many photographs of water . Tasmania was for a long time the place where the British (an island race terrified of water) sent their poor people most vile and horrid criminals. The sort of folk who would face the stark choice of a death sentence , or transportation to the other end of the world. Their catalogue of crimes is horrifying : stealing bread assault stealing gentlemen's handkerchiefs drunken assault being poor affray ladies being overly friendly with gentlemen for money hitting people having a drink and a laugh public drunkenness being Irish Fenian terrorist activities being Catholic religious subversion. ...

Something unpleasant is coming when men are anxious to tell the truth.

This is the moon. Have I mentioned how much I adore the zoom on my camera? It's Theme Thursday you see, and after last week's limp effort, I have been thinking about how I might redeem myself. Then I clicked on the topic and discover that it was BUTTON. We've been hearing a lot about the moon in the past couple of weeks. Apparently some fellas went up there and played golf and what-not forty-odd years ago. The desire to get to the moon, however, was not simply about enhancing opportunities for Meg and Mog titles and skirting local planning by-laws in the construction of new and innovative golf courses. No, all of your Sputniks , "One small steps" and freeze dried ice cream was about one thing , and one thing only : MAD Now, I don't mean mad in terms of "bloke breaks record for number of scorpions he can get up his bum", no I mean MAD as in Mutual assured destruction . When I was a young man you see, there was a lot of talk about the type of m...

But when the strong were too weak to hurt the weak, the weak had to be strong enough to leave.

Can you believe that it is time for Theme Thursday already? Today we are not talking chocolate , toddlers , mess or ignominy . No, today we're dealing with ANIMAL . Now I could have posted a picture of a possum, numbat, wombat, wallaby or any other furry killing machine that roams our fair isle, but I figure that I'd use a far more deadly creature as an example of an animal . Some people - I know them as fools - have chosen to embrace that highfalutin idea that human beans are for some ungodly reason superior to animals. Of course, what these imbeciles seem to forget is that were are simple animals ourselves ! Anyone with a baby, toddler, teenage boy or Queenslander in their household could tell you this. Look at Henry [above]. One chocolate frog in the back of the car on a sunny day and all of a sudden it's Elagabalus meets Bacchus for a quick shandy in the Serengeti and we're down on all fours carrying on like a cat in heat. Fair dinkum, anyone who chooses to ...
