Is it just me or does 'The Cat in the Hat' look like the long lost twin brother of 'The Grinch'? 

My new beret has arrived from the good ol' US of A and it's a beaut. Since someone stole my other one (and no, 'appropriating' is not an excuse for stealing) I have been at a loss. I have tried other chapeaux (as advised by my therapist) but they just don't have the X-Factor of the beret. So I got onto e-Bay - as is my wont - and looked for a new one. I found a beautiful, black leather one and bought it straight away. It's so cool. Also, my one-cent sunglasses arrived.. they aren't so cool.

Now about this hurricane thingy... I am so pissed off at these people who are complaining that the Australian gumbyment isn't doing anything to help Ozzies stranded in the New Orleans area. What would you have them do, send in the Australian Army? Invade the United States Of America? You know that isn't planned for another 200 years. As if the Ozzie gumbyment has any choices here, I mean don't get me wrong, I don't like the pricks but I am also not going to blame them for the weather up my butt on a given day.

This disaster has happened on US soil and they will handle it their way, the only thing our gumbyment can do is coordinate with theirs, it's just common sense people, stop blaming the nanny for the weather. Goodness knows the americans are handicapped by their own gumbyment as it is, they don't need us complaining too.

Then there are all these 'journalists' who are big-noting themselves about how they have been able to go into these areas and rescue Ozzie citizens. You guys are CIVILIANS!!!! Of course you can go in and 'rescue' people, you're given press passes that allow you entry to those areas. Nice bit of self-promotion there you self-serving hypocrites.

I have had enough of you now, you may leave us.
