Slowww

I've been doing other activities this weekend, hence the non-existent bloggage. Now I'm back, and slowly answering my e-mails.

It's a matter of opinion

Check out Patrick Hawke's new-ish essay-Ozblog Oberservation Deck.

The Very Deep Thoughts of Terry O'Shane

Indigenous leader Terry O'Shane offers his deep insights into the Iraq war debate in the latest Green Left Weekly;

Is there a strong anti-war sentiment amongst Indigenous people?

Indigenous people in Australia, and throughout the world, are peace loving peoples. In the harsh Australian conditions, living in harmony with nature and other peoples, other tribes, was a necessity. Aboriginal people have developed high levels of scientific knowledge of the flora, fauna and weather patterns.

Choke. Splutter. Nah, no aboriginal inter-tribal violence or environmental impacts at all until naughty whitey showed up. Ever heard of Disneyfication Terry?

The media is trying to develop mass hysteria to support the war drive.

Someone hasn't been watching/listening to the ABC or reading The SMH or The Age have they?

It fosters a closed mind to the devastation that war will bring to the Iraqi people. We should recognise that we're part of the global community. We need to welcome the diversity of cultures. In doing that we develop our compassion, our understanding, our humanity. We can't afford to live with closed minds.

How silly of us to overlook this: Saddam is part of the brotherhood of humanity maaaan, we should all welcome the diversity his enlightened tyranny brings the world.

Read the rest, he's got all sorts of moss-brained wisdoms to offer.

....and while we're on the subject....

The Green Left is predictably outraged at East Timorese freedom-fighter Jose Ramos-Horta's support for war in Iraq. It then argues (get this) that it was mass protest and not Australian military intervention that stopped the slaughter by pro-Jakarta militias!

This bloke needs to see a doctor.

Kulcha

Heavy music fans should check out Ministry's animositisomina, their best effort by far since 1992's Psalm 69. Welcome back boys.

I also checked out the DVD of Road to Perdition. Darn fine movie, with Hanks a delightful surprise as the morally confused hitman and Paul Newman ripping into his best role in years. That old dude sure hasn't lost his acting chops.

And to top it off, I just this evening caught up with the DVD of John Carpenter's gloriously trashy schlockfest The Fog. It aint The Thing, but it was still a hoot.

The pathetic sickness of Canadian anti-Americanism

Jamie Glazov has some harsh words for his countrymen. It includes this classic quote;

In Canada, of course, it has always been legitimate to be a bigot, as long as it involves hating Americans.

The EU and the destruction of Britain

David Carr has some ominous warnings about the coming EU constitution - a truly hellish big-state Brusselcrat blueprint for a united and creepily non-democratic European union. If I were an englander, I'd be looking at moving to Australia or the USA pronto.

Formula Snooze

The Melbourne Formula One Grand Prix today was apparently exciting. I thought it was a yawn. Motorsports victories should be determined by people - you know - racing. This race was (as always with four-wheeled racing) determined by pit stop strategies and who didn't crash.

The whole concept of drivers dicing for the lead and overtaking each other is as distant to this sport as ever.

Even last weekend's World Superbike race wasn't as dull as F1.
