Lots and lots of Stevie Nicks is not enough. To me she is the matriac of the music industry. I dont care about her sex life or her drug life. Her voice soothes me no end when i cant pick a song to listen to . She puts me on Venus where apparentley women come from. Shes gorgeous.

A few years ago our family lost a best mate. Sarah Girvin. The prettiest girl in the world. She died on the side of the road Lochiel side of Whyalla. Where all the flowers are. She was an amazing kid. Her love and drive would make us all crazy. Her twin sis Simone lives the life Sarah and her could have shared. Not forgotten Sars.

Just finished the first episode a coupla minutes ago. Pretty good!

All this GOT talk but don't see much for Penny Dreadful. Eva Green due for an Emmy/Golden Globe incredible actress.

Huge fan of the comic back in the day. Haven't read it since Ennis wrapped it up. Not sure if it still holds up.

But yeah, there's some pretty crazy and funny shit in the comic. Expecting a pretty loose adaptation. Shit, you'd need a blockbuster budget for some of the set-pieces.

Definitely gonna check it out, though, and probably give it more of a run than most shows...

White Ribbon day. If you know a chic in distress. Tell your mates. Get the ball rolling. You might save a gorgeous girl from a short life. If you see a girl devoid of
confidence. Ask why.

Im saying this because my daughter went through a mental relationship with a f head that screwed her mind. She came out the other end ok because mumma and dad were a soft landing. Shes good now. Buying her own car and paying it off i made sure. Life is short very short. I cant hold grudges. Just happy.

Watched a short doco about land pricing and property speculation, essentially claiming that 19% of properties are left vacant so as to decrease the supply of houses available and incease prices - much like how I noticed Apple ingenously released too few apple watches when they launched so that people would actually pay the ludicrous prices rather than miss out.

It proposed a land tax, that would hopefully reduce the need for income taxes and GST. It's certainly makes sense to my mind as someone working has a much larger benefit to society than someone buying houses, so IMO tax should reflect that.

I've heard the idea floated before, and I'm sure many people realise now how terrible things like negative gearing and reduced capital gains tax are for the economy, particularly in the housing market. I did still find it interesting though, as I hadn't thought so much about the concept of a land tax before, but it certainly seems like a great idea.

The documentary is from 2010 and its called "Real Estate 4 Ransom" its probably a bit silly, and over the top/not supported enough by evidence (at least it doesn't quote enough evidence IMO) but people might find it interesting anyway.

Ive seen both sides of suicide. One suçcessfull. Not good to see. Ive also seen many failed that could have turned into loss of life. Its hard to turn someone around
that is suicidle. More often than not these days its attention seeking. We live in a
fast food world. God bless.

I liked Mr Proteus, the first two eps were great...but then every time they tried to paint Frankenstein's Monster as a victim after that I got less interested in the whole show. Havent kept up.

Is the (incredible) riff a Doors riff or something? Never really listened to them.

no

 

[Changaneen]

Its also very draining. Asking why mate? Blank looks as though you are useless. Counselors are ****ing useless. They have their own agenda and that's it. Wouldnt know how to council a wild pig. I talk and talk to mates everyday. That's our council. Beer? Maybe. But lets keep in touch.

 

[Changaneen]

Pouring down here. Tears from heaven.
