I forgot to mention that last night I saw several members of the Uruguaian rugby team shopping in the city. I didn't think it really warranted a seperate post or even updating last night's post again. In other Perth related Uruguaian news, after a three week chase thru the Antarctic of a Uruguaian illegal fishing vessel ended yesterday in Fremantle. In traditional Australian fashion, we'll sell the fish and scuttle the ship.
Saw the most recent Dido film clip.. is that Dom Deluise?? Freaky. Is he still alive?
Whatever else you think of the guy, thank goodness the US has a Poet Laureate and doesn't leave it up to Bush. Oh my.
Page 57 (750kb) of today's newpaper has an advert taking up 75% of the page width. Well, it's an advert since it's paid for, and thus has "Advertisement" up the top of it.. but to be more accurate it's a rambling diatribe about the bible, psychs (I don't think she could spell psychiatrists..), Saddam Hussein and a variety of other things, in the form of a letter addressed to our spiritual leader, John Howard (close, he's the prime minister, but whatever...) The writer identifies herself as the founder of The Quokka classifieds newspaper. Oh, and it ends in an invitation to a BBQ at some unit in south perth tomorrow afternoon. Oh damn, it's at the same time as I'm going to see Pirates tomorrow with
aphrodite, et al. Edit: It's since been pointed out to me that I know this woman's daughter, and there's an outside chance she might read this, so I'm changing the post to friends only (she's not on the list currently)
Speaking of our fearless leader John Howard, the travel briefing prepared for George W Bush identified our Prime Minister as John Major.. erm. Yeah. Not quite. The briefing named the Australian Prime Minister as "John Major" and was dismissive of Canberra [Australian Capital Territory] as a destination. The ACT's Tourism Minister, Ted Quinlan, described the White House as "bloody patronising". Ahh Australia :)
