No phone like no iPhone
September 11, 2009 – 6:46 pm
Almost there now. First day in maybe 18 years without a mobile phone.
You can stop calling me now mother.
How so? Dead iPhone — oo look, six weeks out of warranty and the home button doesn’t work. Anyway it’s off at the doctors and I am writing this in the hope that Steve Jobs has me [...]
Danby, the wordle
September 10, 2009 – 9:59 pm
On Monday MHR Michael Danby made some pretty tough attacks on Crikey and New Matilda, both agents of malignant anti-Semitism, it would seem. His speech to the House bothered me. Bothers me. I’ve never been pigeon-holed as a racist in the federal parliament before. Read it here.

A salute to Tim Holding
September 1, 2009 – 9:07 pm
It’s probably safe to assume that tomorrow’s talkback — especially the Neil Mitchell grumpfest — will swing to attack Victorian Water Minister Tim Holding, for you know, walking alone, in the cold, after dark.
The indignant callers will presumably turn on the Bullimore-like expense of the search and recovery. blah blah.
And there’s some point in all [...]
