I think I have identified the secret of running a successful government. In saying that, I have no idea on how to approach the problem, as it is a minefield of red tape and any approach would be likely to upset some people, but I believe if you achieve success in this area, a Utopian society will surely follow. It is an amazing task, and one that I am sure many a government of current and bygone eras have grappled with it, I am sure someone else has had the notion, but last night in a theolog...
I came across the article here, in another thread here and I enjoyed it immensely. It is a concept that i believe in, alas, having difficulty articulating. If any Agawrian particularly disagrees with this concept, please feel free to discuss openly amongst your peers. Agawrians are open minded and willing to entertain any concept - though before adoption can occur there must be a general consensus. Perhaps check out www.iliomow.com for some further random musings we can all agree ...
On behalf of everyone who cares, i would just like to thank GemCityJoe for all the effort he has put into the 1st annual Joe User awards. If you are not familiar with what i am talking about - you can learn more here GCJ as he is affectionately known by myself and others is a valuable member of the JU community, as you can clearly see by his rank. He has conducted these awards for no self promotion at all, and is merely doing it for the greater good of the JU blogging community. ...
This weekend has been rather depressing. Some of you may not know the left wing ‘Zealot’ that many consider me to be. I cannot stand conservatives, and I am staunchly against most of the USA’s policies… It’s funny, if you will look at my first blogs, quite a bit of fire and spice amongst them. Admittedly, I was a narrow minded fool, and I took all Americans for ignorant/arrogant warmongering conservatives, merely because of the fact that I have never had a day to day interaction with the...
I am rather tired this morning; I didn’t get to sleep till about 1.30am last night… I had been awake since 10.00am that morning getting all my gear moved from place to place. It wasn’t so difficult at all, I walked on up to Bunnings hardware, and purchased 16m or so of rope, and we got to work tying the mattress and the longer planks of wood to Mark’s roof. 10.00am on a Sunday morning was pretty hardcore. This weekend has been softcore though. I have had a fair amount of sleep on the Friday...
Last night was pretty chill. The last few hours of work seemed to drag... the last hours of the week are skitzophrenic... they can be so awesome, yet so tedious at the same time... I just killed time by emailing Adrian and offering him my pshycho analysis on his current situation... it was fun. As soon as it got to 5.30, i just used works shower and got changed - headed over to the pub for Heath and Rogers going away drinks. I love beer... yesterday was a perfect day for beer consumption...
I hate my Ex Girlfriend. I really do. Her name was Kate… We have been broken up for quite sometime now, and I have not had any interaction with her whatsoever for several months, but I still have whack/crazy dreams about her, and she still occupies a place in my heart. Last night i dreamt we saw each other, and she just came up and started talking to me as if nothing happened, and then she was all touchy feely and wanted to hook up again... this is the second or third such dream like ...
It’s Thursday afternoon and we are travelling along famously. Its Tim’s birthday today, I woke him up in the standard fashion… light switches on and off, about 8 times, except this time I gave him a noogie, cause its his birthday. As we were driving to the train station, we got caught up at the rail crossing again. This rail crossing always holds us up, and sometimes makes me miss my train… Tim was getting mad at it this morning, where I appropriately remarked that this would be the las...
I will tell you a story to help you better understand where I am coming from. My office is located in North Richmond – we have been here for just over a year, and as far as offices go, this one is really nice, but the location really, really sucks. When I go out for lunch to the same places, I greet the proprietors and I expect them to greet me, it’s all about developing a relationship with your customer, it took me about 2-3 months before the proprietors would look me in the eye and s...
I personally don't know too much about Blogging. JU is my first experience, but i may be out of line, so seasoned veterans, i would really appreciate your input here, and i am sure its not just me as well. I am just wondering what consensus is for commenting on other authors blogs. As JU grows and grows, and the users dont become as familiar as perhaps some people around here, i can sometimes be a little afraid to comment on other peoples blogs. Its pretty safe to say, that i wont commen...
The crowd in Rod Laver Arena The crowd in Vodaphone Arena From left to right - Flannigan, Me, Some Dutch guy, My brother Tim in the Red hoody, Laima, Pete in the Yellow hat, Adrian in the black hat, Karen behind him, Aaron in the red top, Jimmy behind him, Then Stella, I forget the name of the other girl! No comment. BAM!!!
We arrived a the venue a bit later than we were supposed to. Tim and i rocked up to Linas' house at about 3.30ish... They were making final preperations for their set. They were encouraged by my obvious enthusiasm - i had never been to a dance party with 20,000 people there. Linas' and Adrian were supposed to arrive at 5.00pm for sound testing. Originally the plan was to got ot Linas', then Vlat's, and then to Melbourne Park, but their didn't seem to be time. We got some Fish and Chips quic...
To live the Agawrian way of life, there is one simple rule that you must abide by. You can do whatever you please, as long as you are considerate for your environment and consequences for others. This is a blanket policy, that does require a few pieces of refinement and consolidation - however the principal is sound, and its an admirable attitude towards life. May you live the Agawrian way.
Ok, i will be honest with you. I love shopping. Dont get me wrong, i will not wake up on a Saturday morning with the intention of cruising a street mall or a shopping centre, but when i am required to purchase good's, its not a duty i shirk. Yesterday i went to pay a cable internet bill in the morning, It was $177.00 and it was pay day the other day, so i thought i had better pay it. I called them up, and their records showed that i owed them nothing - i remarked to the opperator 'this conv...
