Here's Mark Day looking into his crystal ball today, expecting the digitisation of arse-wipe will lead to "deconstruction of spin through expert analysis."<br />Hey, what! When we have got used to the norm being promulgation of spin. Isn't that like Roop saying he'd never lean on a Prime Minister, so that when a PM appears to bend Roop's way, it couldn't have been due to Roop's special pleading?<br />Someone tweeted, after the earth tremor, that it caused millions of $$$ worth of improvements to the Frankston CBD. That was probably Mark Day, proven arch cynic.EAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00304540936197101508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1462488453822156883.post-37621821835542113432012-06-19T18:47:09.271+10:002012-06-19T18:47:09.271+10:00Are you sure it's not George Brandis driving a...Are you sure it's not George Brandis driving a tank AJ?

Clearly Telstra are cutting back on network infrastructure so they can afford the incalculable burden of the carbon tax.AJhttp://www.alternateroute.com.aunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1462488453822156883.post-45280542155208167252012-06-19T10:13:08.376+10:002012-06-19T10:13:08.376+10:00Great work, DP.

As for the "anyone under 30", see them crammed into the bearpit of the 7.42, unable to unfold an iPad, let alone a tabloid or The Age, due to the crush of armpits.<br />Yep, the next generation of voters, mostly mobile, multi-hued and with many linkages to foreign ports. It's no wonder Brandis & Roop want to corral Oz into the arms of the privileged cartel of decent, law-abiding folks. We must protect our borders! Oops, Roop, too late.<br />However, if the future of the nation is in the Facebook Mums from the leafy suburbs, shuttling their precious between appointments & the better schools, Roop will be safe till he pops off. Even though they do not read a newspaper. They need only intermittent confirmation of their standing & status - a grab here, a slogan there, another episode in the lives of the rich & famous and copious Hail Marys. <br />If time & space allowed, I'd mention the polio eradication campaign, the Khan Academy, Atul Gawande, Obama, Osama .... & Roop. For now, better believe the next Messiah is some little kid battling to survive shitty drinking water in PK, not some blanched turd floating in the scum on the Pond.
