Bush Week #4 Balingup

Caribou Bob again supplies Bush Week. This is in what he describes as an otherwise lovely winery. The scene has more of a mushroom than alcohol feel to it for mine. I particularly like the old phone. I pixellated Old Bob’s face in case there’s a country backlash. I believe he’s originally “from the regions” himself.balingup

    would that be the nether region or simply “the regions”?

    Not sure why but I find this to be a little disconcerting.

    Given the creepy Deliverance-esque vibe of this place, I reckon it’s gotta be Hillbille’ winery.

    Caribou Bob, is that you of the curly ginger hair?

    Anyway, moving off topic for a moment, the latest news to drop into my inbox from the CEC:

    Oracle speaks, major parties gush, economy tanks

    Reserve Bank Governor Glenn Stevens is the modern Pythia, the Oracle of Delphi, whose hallucinatory gibberish is interpreted by the priesthood of the major parties any way they want, regardless of reality, Citizens Electoral Council leader Craig Isherwood observed today.

    (Pythia was the name of the Oracle, a priestess of the Temple of Apollo at Delphi in classical Greece, who sat over an opening in the earth in a deep trance, channeling Apollo, and her ravings were interpreted by the priests, for a fee; the Oracle’s influence over kings and warlords enabled the Temple to function in practice as the predecessor of a modern central bank, raking in a hoard of wealth).

    There’s a touch of the HST about this Isherwood fella – you have to admire someone who can turn the mild mannered Glenn Stevens into a speaker of ‘hallucinatory gibberish’. Nice.

    DC – no, he’s just wigged out in a really scary, super straight way. No smoked herring on this man’s menu, just communion wafers and the odd shandy.
