Does it feel good or what?
I woke up at around 5am today and was about to roll out of bed grumbling to find my damned clearance form, when it hit me. Its the holidays! I didn't need to do a thing. So I turned around and went right back to sleep until around 8am. Thats when it hit me that it was also the weekends.
Anyway, I spent the entire morning reading the newspaper. People should know that the Swans won the AFL grand final after a 72-year drought. That's one hell of a dry spot.
Now, besides reading the newspaper, I also read those Innovations magazine. You know those catologues that offer a whole bunch of stuff and very cheap and very expensive prices? Well, they were offering a breath analyser, with the tagline about saving you life or your licence and it set me thinking. You take you average Aussie teenager, regardless of race or creed, give them a breath analyser and you give them a way to tell who has drank the most alcohol. I saw this being done before at a party. I was younger then and it had a whole bunch of teenage guys and girls. And the guys were like trying to impress the girls on how much they could drink before passing out. The breath analyser was used to see who had the highest BAC. Some guy got to 0.4 before he knocked himself out and a girl managed a 0.42 before the adults confiscated the device so they could have a drinking competition. So much for saving your live or your licence.
Finally, for some strange news. A 14-year old student was expelled from a Christian school, cos the parents were lesbians. Actually, that was kind of expected as we all know the stance that Christianity has on homosexuality. Still it was the student's fault for talking about it at a football game.
