I was IN THE WATER when the shark alarm went off at Cottesloe yesterday. You never think it’s going to happen to you, but when it does, COOL!
I’ve always wanted to do it.
Meanwhile, another victim. Mark The Slightly Damp Teatowel McGowan. We haven’t spoken about Teh towel recently, but who has. I heard him mumbling and bumbling in parliament. With every BARNETT government cockup, budget blowout and incompetence, he should be miles ahead. But bong banging Barnett is tipped to win.
What an indictment of Teh Damp towel. He’s going to fucken lose it.
The Worst of Perth 
The SDTT is quite representative of the general political malaise in Aus.
Without some kind of “celebrity” status or “charisma”, so many folk have no interest in their politicians.
Facts and figures are too hard for them to handle, and the history of chicanery, deception, broken election promises and the resultant “trickle up” effects in the economy get lost in the rush for more ‘stuff’, latest fashions, fancy cars and oversized, excessively elaborate, overpriced real estate.
On credit, of course.
The two Party Us vs.Them nature of politics makes a parody of democracy, sucessfully disguising the real intents of those elected to govern.
Sharks in the ocean are the least of your worries: The sharks in politics, commerce and religions are the ones creating the greatest danger.

Why just close the beach? Why not everything west of the stirling highway, South of servetus and north of tydeman? Fuck off with your beach closing nannying. Tell me there’s a big bitey fish and I’ll make a decision on whether I should swim. Or, I can just head south a kilometre and swim there, after all, sharks don’t know.
I quite like Col, I’ve never seen a shark at the beach when he’s been there.
