TURNING PINK
The best feel good story of the week is the one where the cricket went pink for Beast cancer to raise funds for the Jane McGrath Foundation.
Ladies Day at Sydney Cricket Ground Test against South Africa has been renamed Jane McGrath day in her honour. Jane died last June, aged 42, after a decade-long battle with breast cancer. And Australian Test star Matthew Haydn has been batting wearing a pink helmet in her memory.
Janes Foundation was initially set up to raise funds for more care nurses for women suffering from breast cancer, when the foundation started they had 4 nurses this number has risen to 61 in two and a half yrs. This is the third year there has been a sea of pink at the Cricket. Bless you Jane.

QLD FLOODS
In Qld we have dreadful floods that have affected many people in so many ways. From railways to mines, crops wiped out and washed away, animals lost, drowned or suffering. We have seen people displaced and their homes lost, and others not wanting to leave. Residents have been encouraged to leave and the ones who are remaining are mainly self sufficient with their own boats, food and water. Rain is hampering attempts at clean up. This is the time when true Aussies step up to the plate and help each other. In weeks to come I see donations of food, water, clothing, money, building materials all forthcoming from others. The affects of these floods in Qld will effect us for a long time to come, both emotionally and economically . Everything will rise in prices, groceries in all categories will be affected. Wheat and sugar, two staples were among crops that were flood ravished, all fruit and vegs will cost a small fortune. Beef is also to rise.
Bugger that, I love me' steak and three veg meal at least three times a week. Looks like rissoles for a while.
P.S. Ju-LIAR would be better off and maybe she would sleep better at night if she donated 500,000,000 to the Qld Flood Fund and not give that sort of money to Indonesia to refurbish madrass'. Come on Ju-LIAR, write a couple of eight zero cheques for the Qld people.

CULTURE CLASH LEAVES CHILD DEAD
In NSW a fight between a man and a woman resulted in a 2yr old girl being murdered, the parents, both from Afghanistan had been fighting about an outing, apparently daddy didn't want them to go to the beach.
Culture clash?, I think so. Our way of life here in Australia is to enjoy the sun, the sea and the sand if you live close to the beach. Different cultures sometimes do not adapt and this is an example.
Coming from Afghanistan 5yrs ago the husband settled here in Australia and last year his wife joined him, could it be that his wife had begun to enjoy life here in Australia, had begun to feel freedom and wanted her child to enjoy those freedoms too. A day at the beach for most of us would seem a pretty normal thing to do in the Summertime but for this woman it has become a nightmare. She herself stabbed and her child dead she must now deal with the trauma.
Wonder if we can fuck the husband back off to Afghanistan. Now, there's a good idea Ju-Liar!

In NSW, Sydney there is a politically correct KFC halal friendly store that is giving counseling sessions for a young muslim male who spat the dummy while at work. Can you imagine, someone had the audacity to ask for a bacon burger!, I mean, the hide of the man! obviously the bacon burger request was just way too much for the young aggressive employer to handle so he began abusing the woman who began filming and threatening the guy who asked for some bacon. Like wow, these muslim people seem to go off over the simplest things, I mean we still do live in a safe democracy don't we?. Last time I checked it was alright to ask for a bacon burger and if there was no bacon or cheese or whatever we were told politely "sorry we don't have any" not have the joint torn up and tantrums thrown, and in my day that goose would be sacked not 'suspended' and the one who would be counseled would be the customer who was abused. Obviously the customer is always right does not apply in this instance. Also, why the hell are we not selling bacon at a KFC outlet?, why do we have to have this continual appeasement of minorities, in particular muslims. All this gagging of us voicing any sort of disdain or dislike of the islamic culture is wrong.
So he will get some counseling. He was suspended though, isn't that nice he still has a job to go back to after a bit of a stress break.
