eurovision

If people vote for spain - they deserve to die.

There are some very attractive euro acts, and a little musical talent.

Tonight is a night of crap. Indy 4 is average, starts of quite good then yeah, goes down hill. They did well to keep it themed in the 50's, and was filmed quite well (yay for spielberg). Ahh well, it better be over with no more sequels. I watched about 5 minutes of Big Brother, it's still crap but at least it's different to previous years. Now flicking between CSI, eurovision and all the other junk on free-to-air digital.

I am not a fan of steph working nights. I should prob do some work.

P.S. movie prices in melbourne SUCK! I miss southbank cinemas.

Icey

So this morning I wander on down to the proton, which I have finally paid off the student loan for, and it was covered in ice. colder weather is starting to kick in. None of this crappy brissy ice on the windscreen, it was virtually covered in ice. c'est la vie.

damn students loans are evil, as soon as you are "expected" to graduate they hit you with bigger interest.. nothing compared to a normal personal loan, but still. I want to buy before the end of the year, need to save $$$$.

blah, almost time for the coffee van to arrive.

Lab or Lib

So, who is happy with the new government? Are people amazed by the new budget? Has it made Australia better off. Are they happy with the labor government's point-of-view that a complete stagnation of the economy is the only solution?

Regardless of what I think, the figures don't add up. 16000 people will apparently miss out on the baby bonus now, and about 40,000 will miss out on some form of family benefit tax. Interesting since the last sensis showed 216,000 Australian households earning over $150,000.

Funding for medical research/science has been redistributed, reconfigured and essentially reduced. The previous government has steadily increased funding over the last 10 years to come almost level with other developed countries (obviously paling in comparison to the states). This government kept the total amount of funding the same. When you factor in quite a large inflation, funding for Medical research/Science has decreased. No wonder people head overseas and take their gifted minds/inventions with them.

I liked Rudd when he was just the local MP in brissy. The government is screwing the country up, and the liberals are like pathetic little kids bickering over the scraps thrown to them after their defeat.

today

Weirdest realisation of the day - Toby Maguire looks a lot like K.D. Lang. seriously messed up.

rainy cold weather is perfect for chilling on the sofa bed and watching a movie. First day that was 'cold'. I like it.

Got back from my holidays down the great ocean road 2 days ago... A good break. Had some nice wine at Otway estate.

My 7" digital photo frame arrived today, a freebie after buying a HP printer 6 MONTHS ago!

FA cup is on tonight and I can't be assed heading into the city at midnight to find a pub that has it on tv... I wish I had foxtel.
