You donated money to "Fire the Liar". AFAIK, no-one's been fired. Someone did score a nice shed, though. Congratulations! #auspol

It seems like every time Poorline announces some new, outrageous brain-fart, Barney is the one who fronts the media to take the flak. Kinda like the fall guy. #auspol

I can't help but wonder whether Downer would have turned out a more likeable person if he'd succeeded in getting that part in the Rocky Horror Show that he secretly yearned for back in the day. #auspol

This is a threat to our Aussie culture. Curb = (verb) impede, control, limit. Kerb = (noun) concrete edging on the side of a road. There. Simple.

I guess all the apocalyptic predictions made by cookers about the #Ausalert test on Monday will go the same way as the million and one end-of-days / rapture predictions made previously that didn't take place. Or will I become a 5g powered, gubberment-controlled zombie?
