Happy Australia Day!

Karl, what a great cartoon! Is there a secret tunnel to Parliament House? I can’t get over this little hiccup in history called Tasmanian Times! The good stuff that flows through it! In fact, we are very rich here in Tas. We have TAP, a true community group if ever there was one, a green political party, the Wilderness Society, we have the resistance fighters in the bush, we have this “F…in’ useless” rag called Tasmanian Times … I mean, what use is an online newpaper that allows everybody to contribute? You can’t even ‘wipe your arse’ with it! At least the good old Examiner publishes a paper copy which you could use if you run out of Sorbent … In fact, even in our adversity, the positives are the community responses, in all its flowerings, the rallies, the writings, the cartoons, the songs, the friendships, the learning, the work, the commitments: it is these things that are the positives. The positive legacy that curiously is the product of the crappy dominant media, the product of the wretched dominant political parties, of the wretched John Gay and his company and all his wretched apparatchiks, henchmen, imitators, sycophants, apologists, collaborators, conspirators…
