Sometimes Twitter is funny
Sometimes Twitter is funny.
This may or may not have been political reporter Latika Bourke earlier this evening. Read it from the bottom up.....
I'm out bush. Literally and always.
I live and work in the Great Victorian and Gibson Deserts of western Australia.
I twitter away a bit at BiteTheDust
There is a serious blog. www.bitethedust.com.au will take you there. It's about remote and indigenous health issues.
This is for the fun stuff.
Enjoy

What's your age?
Three mischievous old Grannies were sitting on a bench outside a nursing home when an old Grandpa walked by.
One of the old Grandmas yelled out saying, "we bet we can tell exactly how old you are."
The old man said, "there is no way you can guess it, you old fools."
One of the old Grandmas said, "sure we can! Just drop your pants and under shorts and we can tell your exact age."
Embarrassed just a little, but anxious to prove they couldn't do it, he dropped his drawers.
The Grandmas asked him to first turn around a couple of times and to jump up and down several times.
Then they all piped up and said, "you're 82 years old!"
Standing with his pants down around his ankles, the old gent asked,
"How in the world did you guess?"
Slapping their knees and grinning from ear to ear, the three old ladies happily yelled in unison....
"We were at your birthday party yesterday!"

ID10T
I was having trouble with my computer.
So I called Eric, the 11 year old next door, whose bedroom looks like Mission Control and asked him to come over. Eric clicked a couple of buttons and solved the problem.
As he was walking away, I called after him, 'So, what was wrong?
He replied, 'It was an ID ten T error.'
I didn't want to appear stupid, but nonetheless inquired, 'An, ID ten T error? What's that? In case I need to fix it again.'
Eric grinned.... 'Haven't you ever heard of an ID ten T error before?
'No,' I replied. 'Write it down,' he said, 'and I think you'll figure it out.'
So I wrote down:

I used to like Eric, the little bastard

International Australia Day
Australia's first 'Lambassador', Sam Kekovich worried about a pandemic that threatens the world as we know it – un-Australianism - is to plead with the United Nations to make January 26th International Australia Day. This and eating more lamb chops will make the world more Australian, and thus a happier place

Playing For Change
Heidi Allen put me on to this ‘Playing For Change’ mob.
Their aim is to bring the world together through music using largely unrecognised musicians from different countries. They also have a foundation to: “dedicated to connecting the world through music by providing resources (including, but not limited to facilities, supplies, and educational programs) to musicians and their communities around the world.”
I love the music. Initially they roamed the world recording different artists and merging them together in collaborations followed by tours of the musicians through the USA and Europe. Please read more about them.
And here is a couple of pieces.
and this second piece has a couple of more well known musos.
I urge you to click through and read about those who participated in each song and to explore their website.

Sarah Palin supporter vox pops
This is one of the most enjoyable eight and a half minutes.
It seems a few people have gone to literacy classes.
Enjoy – I sure did
