From 2 years ago.
BOUQETS: Yes,to a Greens MP, Dickie DiNatale who went to West Africa to inspect efforts to fight ebola. Very brave,...Bon Natale, Dick, if you don't mind the word-play and my poor Italian. [Sorry to hear that you came back]..
To Pope Frank for postulating that pets can go to heaven. [Good, but what next? Gays? Bikies? Bank managers? And what about my pet venus fly trap?] . To Facebook for giving consideration to a "dislike" button. [Better idea: a hate button...or damn disgraceful....revolting...cancel-this-post...really boring button?] Just saying!
BRICKBATS: To ISIS for beheading four Christian children for not converting. To Waleed Aly for leaving ABC shows that nobody watches and joining The Project to bore us to death on that. [not me, I won't be watching]. To THE MONTHLY rag for claiming that there is no such beast as the political LEFT, only the RIGHT, which is always wrong. Confused? Me too, but the rag does have some very funny sardonic articles [ if you are of the Left....which doesn't exist]. To the Pope for letting pet snakes into heaven...
========================================================================
HERE WE ARE, EXACTLY TWO YEARS AFTER THE NONSENSE FOREGOING O.P. WAS PENNED. What's changed?
Not a lot.
Dick H. Natali is even moreso as the new Bwana of the Green Jungle Dwellers who have become increasingly feral and gone "native" from such a long stint in that verdant environment of solar panels and wind turbines. [But Dick H. conquered Ebola single-handedly in that time].
Pope Frank? Well, he has been a little too frank with his throw-away lines in these two years. That's all down to his pastoral zeal to get all souls to Heaven, along with their pets, including adulterers, non-Christians, Islamic terrorists and Barak Obama.
Facebook read my blog and now have multiple response buttons for those who never caught on to written language.
ISIS is still going strong and doing its best to deal with the world's overpopulation problem. It has convinced most of the World's Leaders that, while their tools of trade are a little primitive, their principles are as culturally valid as any other philosophy coming, as they do, from a profound desire for peace based on the saintly life of Mohammed.
Finally: Wally Aly. The Wally did eventually take up the reins at the Project, except on those nights following a terrorist attack. He has become the Shepherd of the "Flock For Love, Peace & Joy", the Voice of Snowflakes & Pollyannas who block their ears whenever reality is discussed, fearing they will be triggered. He is their proxy voice. And he plays the guitar.
Oh, and the rag called "The Monthly"? I can't even recall it now. Apparently I have moved on intellectually to those fine disseminators of truth: The Guardian, Huff Post, Matilda, SMH, The Conversation and all such rags that do such a fine job of refuting such ideals as absolute truths, grace, beauty, tradition, sovereignty, Divinity and other quaint ideas that are anathema to 'progress'.
