in which the pond finds new reptile ways of deploying the gold bar ...


And finally here's another belated moan about the reptiles …

Not only is that a wretched stock photo, it entirely lacks the abstract design featured at the top of the original story …


Yes, that's the story in The Economist … and here it is in the lizard Oz …


Well the first bit of it anyway. You see the reptiles as usual dressed it up in their reptile finery and hung up their gold bar shingle on the piece …


And yet anyone wanting to read it could find it outside The Economist paywall here, at least for the moment …

Is it the lizard Oz business plan to promote the benefit of subscribing to The Economist?

Who knows, but in the meantime, the pond was reduced to reading the oscillating fan …


A clear message? What, get the mutton Dutton a twitter account, as suggested here on the pond, so that he might do the full Donald?


That's it? That's the message? Suck up to the extreme right?

Well here you go, Oscillating Fan, and he's just down the road from you …


Hang on, hang on, is this the serial offender from the west? Does he have the first clue what his status would have been in the good old days of South African apartheid?

And does he have any remembrance or understanding whatsoever of Australian history when he blathers about symbolic moves?


The pond thought of ending with this fabulous story …



… but why not do a Donald?
