5/08/2006Australian OE # 07Australian OE # 07: Tasmanian Rollers That's what I'm talking about. Makes the Victorian version look like a rogue snowball rolling out of a Chinese-checkers game hall. This picture was taken out of the main cop shop in Launcestern. A few klicks up the road, and one klick under it, in Beaconsfield, a couple of miners have been waiting a week and a half to be rescued from the shaft they're in. I'm picking they'll be free around noon on Tuesday. Never saw many cop cars in Tas. I only assume they all look like the ones I did see.

Rick: Dom here. Got the email. You've noticed I'm not blogging anymore: well, that's not about to change. Thus me removing my ugly mug from the sidebar. I didn't feel right about ripping down the Labour logo that's so nicely arranged up the top, but you might like to.
Yeah. The reasons? Who needs reasons when you've got heroin. That's right, I've taken up the scag. It's great. Also, you're a dick, but that didn't really come into my decision. Just busy I guess. It's hard to blog while desperately breaking into cars to finance your next fix. Anyway. I'm happy to keep the free hosting going if you're bandwidth usage doesn't grow any more than where it is now. I'll let you know if that happens: might be convenient to move to blogspot now. Whatever. Goodbye.
Oh, and with a nod to NZ artist John Reynolds, and his nod to Jonathan Rée, I'll leave you with this:
What Kierkegaard said about God applies to politics too: whatever we think, we are bound, in the end, to be in the wrong. Although you, especially so. I kid.
I found them Victoria cop a lot more civilised than the NSW law, Rick, like they give me warnings, "you cant drive this car all over OZ dude, it got no roadworthy .. well we check you into this motel here ...and we go home now ...you lie still till night fall do you hear", and like when you cross the border they NSW cop slime they fingerin their gun and they only twenty fouryears of age, and they dont even like us dude to give them eye contact, real snarly like, what kind of motor in that vehicle Rick ?
Queensland cops are by far the worse. They practically arrested me in Brisbane just for wheeling a bike accross the road! Oh sure, my feet weren't touching the ground and I didn't have a helmet on. But they cuffed me for having no home and no ID.
