Thanks, Laura. And now for something completely different: beardless John Quiggin. Does this mean he's lost all his strength?

a horse opened the Sydney Harbour Coathanger.

A horse ridden by a card-carrying ‘new guard’ fascist, no less!

Anyone keen to find out more about Australia’s own fascist movement, in a user-friendly way, can read ( or even see the fairly good movie made of) DH Lawrence’s Kangaroo.

Onya Zarquon. Father Ted references will win you important friends in the right places (As will catblogging on your maiden blog post, incidentally - nice torty there), even if St Patrick's day is completely shit otherwise and should just be killed, speaking as a dual national Irish citizen of course.

Slander? Strewth. I hereby and unreservedly apologise to all donkeys living and dead for any suggestion that their intelligence is in any way on a par with a NSW Premier now or next week.

More predictable anti-donkey slander.

Caligula had the right idea: fill Maquarie street with livestock — it’s not like the aren’t already drowning in horseshit…

Just think about it …..seventy- five years ago, today, a horse opened the Sydney Harbour Coathanger.

In seven days time a donkey will be Premier of NSW, regardless of the election result.

If the Jews have a psychosis jpz, it would seem they’re finally getting over it.

Perhaps they’ve finally called time on the left because for so long the left have been calling time on them.

I dunno why, Lefty E, but the spaminator loves your comments so much at the moment that it wants to keep them all to itself!

I was stunned watched the Paddys smash the Pakis too. I hadn’t even heard about Bangladesh smashing the Indians.
