"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh
Some Ramadan-crazed Arab with a knife running around a Sydney Mall a few days ago, I'm deeply embarrassed at how gun-ignorant Aussies have become: they all stand slack-jawed behind the guy watching the policewoman take aim at him. Of course some were hit by ricochet. Compare Americans who know to eat dirt instantly. My ancestors were marksmen, now we're becoming idiots.
Six out of seven is good.

Last year at the rodeo, we saw a lady dangle her baby over the arena fence as a bucking bull ran along the wall.
