Bloody got sick again. Another bloody round of the bloody flu. No fair.
Been laying on the sofa for days with a rug over me, a jar of Vicks to sniff and 4 seasons of Supernatural to keep me company.
The good news is, no-one's started world war 3 (unless I slept through that news bulletin) and I seem to be on the mend at last.
Got some pictures somewhere to blog but my enfeebled brain can't find them. Next week.

Fuckwittery
Muslims are welcome on this site. Koran-burning fuckwits are not. Burning holy books, whoever they belong to, is not on.
Just wanna make that perfectly clear. Whatever this Koran-burner does, no matter what the reaction in the Muslim world, that welcome still stands.
I am not a fan of behaviour designed to provoke another war, more dead soldiers in the current war, more dead civilians in war-zones, religious riots or unpleasantness or whatever in Sydney's streets or any streets anywhere on the planet.
We are all the same. Outbreaks of fuckwittery, whatever their motivation, all over the globe and through all periods of history, are proof of that.
Our differences are pretty minor and are there to be enjoyed. If you really need to make other people miserable to "improve" your life, it's time to bite the bullet and look at why your life is so shit.
This yes-no-yes-no Koran-burning fuckwit needs to be arrested and assessed by a psychiatrist. If he's got to make a fuss to enjoy himself, why can't he just join an amateur theatre like normal people?

Fucking flu
(Live from the sofa)
Jesus H. Christ.
No sooner had I left off writhing about in pain and an unseemly fashion than I was struck down by the Dreaded Lurgy. A proper Lurgy not the ManLurgy! Thought I'd escaped the lurgy this winter then some swine sneezed at me in the pub.
Several packets of antibiotics later and I'm out of bed again, my face has stopped throbbing and I'm no longer fondly contemplating an early death.
The photo above is not my sofa. It's Sorrento House at Empire Bay, remodelled and complete. Thank yer, Craig.
Got a stack of photos on the other computer of it in the building process, with its cladding off and its chimney stack showing. The other computer seems very far away. You'll have to hold yer breath.
Christchurch
Apart from mass attacks of gastro and nippy nights camped on their front lawns and stuff, the Kiwis of Christchurch got off pretty lightly compared to that Haiti quake which was apparently the same size. But they did have a nasty big after-shock. And I was gonna say something else about their quake but my brain has conked out.
"Devastatingly vicious" aftershock rocks Christchurch (SMH, includes video links)
NZ Herald: Quake articles, photos & links
Shaking Maps (NZ's quake watch site)
The quake on Wiki (includes NZ's quake history)
NZ is roughly the size of Japan or the UK (Britain) including all of Ireland or California plus half of Oregon. Its entire population is about 4,400,000 (Sydney's population is 4,500,000). Christchurch is NZ's seond largest city and has about 380,000 people.
Where the hell is New Zealand anyways? (mappage)
NZ from space (pretty)
Major towns & cities of NZ (Christchurch marked)
Vic floods
Some of those poor bastards who copped it in the Black Saturday bushfires are now under flood. Fucking hell.
New threat after floods: disease (includes video)

The no-click weirdness continues on posts. It seems to lick in after a day or two so either be very quick making comments or make them on older posts like this one. I get a comments alert thingo.
Okay, that's it from me for now. My head is throbbing again and I'm desperate for my dinner.
