Week’s after learning that Kramer and Newman’s bottle scheme might be coming to Australia comes word that Newman himself might also be. Australia’s postal service has increased the maximum weight for mailmen and women by 15 kg (33 pounds) in an attempt to attract more “posties,” local media reported on Tuesday. Australia Post had a [...]
Yet more evidence that the global Jihad is gathering steam, with a huge terrorist plot in the spotlight Down Under as a terror trial gets underway. The leader of an alleged home-grown Muslim terrorist group talked of an attack that would kill 1000 people, a Melbourne terror trial heard today. Abdul Nacer Benbrika, 47, said [...]
Kramer lives on, and you can’t even blame Shimon Peres for it. Concerns have been raised that a Seinfeld-style scheme will be attempted by interstate residents after the State Government announced the recycling levy would be doubled. Premier Mike Rann yesterday said the levy would be 10c for each bottle or can later this year. [...]
I know I probably shouldn’t laugh at this, but I can’t help it. Whether it’s the party boy’s nonchalant answers, the reporter’s attempts to ask hard-hitting questions of said party boy, or the image of the reveller running past with a hat strategically covering his private parts, it cracks me up (hat tip: Shy Guy).

David Hicks converted [...]
Yesterday, I predicted that former Al-Qaeda terrorist David Hicks would not offer a genuine apology for his role in terrorism, upon his release from prison today. As it turns out, he did not even offer an insincere one. A defiant David Hicks was in hiding last night after refusing to apologise for working with Islamic [...]
Former Al-Qaeda terrorist David Hicks is set to apologize for his crimes after his release from jail tomorrow. Although something tells me his “apology” won’t be overly genuine. David Hicks plans to head from the prison food line to the dole queue on his release from jail tomorrow, after an apology from the confessed terrorist [...]
For the past few weeks, I have been spending time with my parents in my hometown of Perth, Western Australia. And a more relaxed place you will be hard pressed to find. Gorgeous weather, friendly people, and relative quiet – it is very easy to forget about the troubles in the Middle East, and, indeed, [...]
Reading The West Australian this morning, I was struck by this image of two high profile Construction, Forestry, Mining and Energy Union (CFMEU) members who are no longer part of the state Labor party (the drongo on the left was expelled last month following remarks he made about then Prime Minister John Howard, while the [...]
