The powers that be thought processes ....Impenetrable as tissue paper

Back in the beginning of this blog, it was mooted that the question of GST would not be long in coming.

Now the word is out and it'll crescendo r from a whisper into a roar.

Meet the new Loony Tunes Australian brothers....

The miserable science's Christmas

Sometimes  the right thing is done but for no reason it backfires dramatically. It's also a question that pricks the conscience of religious disciples; whether they have done the right thing for the wrong reason. It's a guaranteed method of self torture.People pray for many reasons and try to butter up the authority on high by including all the poor and oppressed in their orisons so as to give the impression that their own requests are pure and sincere. 

Strict observers of the self-help school become vexed when seeing money being given to those in need. They consider a trade agreement with inner Mongolia a better option ; that way the one-armed, deformed beggar would benefit in the longer term more so than money which would be spent on food or some such temporary need.

One thing is for certain.The government is cutting back on foreign aid, education and welfare in general because , economically, 'tis the right thing to do. No guilty consciences there.

The right thing....

....backfiring.

What do you know....?

Pigs really can fly......

A U.S. Airways passenger boarded a flight before Thanksgiving. Nothing unusual in that! 

However bewildered passengers discovered that the large item she had draped over her shoulder was a 70 to 80 lb pig.

The passenger apparently was allowed to bring the animal on board..now get this.. as an emotional support animal, a U.S. Airways agent said.

The passenger and pig were kicked off the flight for being "disruptive". 

The big brown pig stank up the cabin and defecated in the aisle. When the passenger tied the pig to an armrest and tried to tidy up the pig began to howl. The pig's owner became agitated,  talking to the pig as if it were a person calling it a "big jerk"for misbehaving.

Eventually the passenger and porcine companion disembarked.

In 2003 the Dept of Transport updated its regulations animals that assist passengers with their disabilities by providing emotional support qualify as service animals.

Wonder what her disability was? Or maybe it was the pig?
