Try Not To Breathe

Posted: May 14, 2012 in Dummy Spits, Politics

Bernie Banton spent his last few agonizing breaths fighting for their rights, this week the NSW Coalition kicked them and their families in the guts. Damn hard too. They are the workers suffering and dying from the effects of asbestos, which leads to some particularly nasty and painful conditions. Those who are unlucky enough to [...]

Both Sides Of The Gun

Posted: April 30, 2012 in Dummy Spits, Politics

It was 4am on Saturday21st April. The busy streets of Kings Cross in Sydney were full of the usual crowds out for a good night. What happened next would be the talk of Sydney for the next week. I won’t go into all the details, as I’m sure most of you know them already. The [...]

Respect

Posted: April 28, 2012 in Dummy Spits

Anzac Day, is in my mind the most important public holiday of the year on the Australian calendar, for a few good reasons. It does not involve any sort of religion, it does not involve the birthday of a woman from another country with a crown on her head, and it does not involve the [...]

Looks That Kill

I am seriously considering having some work done. When I say this, I mean that I am toying with the idea of plastic surgery. I don’t mean a nose job or a nip and tuck either, I’m thinking of industrial strength surgery, a total head job (so to speak). Some of you may be scratching [...]

Don’t Look Back In Anger

Posted: April 14, 2012 in Dummy Spits, Politics

OK good folks, I’m writing this post with my sleeves rolled up. Beware, this could get ugly… I’m sick and tired of people whining and crying over the state of Labors public perception. Yes we are doing it tough, but I’m a little over the whole blame game thing…. It’s the media, it’s the Carbon [...]

Anybody who watched Monday night’s episode of 4 Corners would be as appalled as I am that the situation in Syria is continuing on, with the rest of the world watching, mildly interested, but mostly apathetic. And a warning, this post contains images that should disturb…. For those that missed it, it can be summed up [...]

A warning before I start, there are images which may upset some, so proceed with caution… I was forwarded an email by a friend recently that I wanted to share, I have changed some of the wording, but you will get the gist…. after all a picture tells a thousand words. Some of you may [...]

Hey True Blue…

It has been a while since I posted anything, so I hope I’m not too rusty… With Australia day looming, I thought I would write something about what seems to be a popular subject currently, Australians and racism. We didn’t really need Dr Charles Teo to tell us that racism is alive and well in [...]

Dave Grohl, many of you know him as the frontman for the Foo Fighters, some of you know him as the drummer from Nirvana, if you don’t know him, you may as well stop reading now. Dave Grohl was a member of one of the most influential bands that the world of rock music has [...]

Too Much Green…

Posted: October 14, 2011 in Dummy Spits, Politics

I am aware that this post will no doubt become a magnet for abuse, so I will start out by saying that I agree with some of the Greens policies. Equal marriage rights for all, I’m with you 100%. However…. Every time Bob Brown or Sarah Hanson -Young open their mouths, I can almost hear [...]
