Commonwealth Government Initiative - Nationalising Trades

Great to see the Commonwealth government showing some initiative and proposing to nationalise the licensing of electrical, plumbing and gas occupations. Wow, I only wrote to Prime Minister John Howard in 1996 straight after he was elected proposing just such an idea. Along with nationalising our drivers licences. The wheels of government sure do turn slowly.

Psy Meme

Are you thinking this as well? Psy's Gangnam Style vid has had 563,911,362 views. I must have contributed about half a million myself. Well, close to. Here's a meme that I made recently.

Returned From Hols

I've been a bit quite of late. Mainly due to some holidays that I took to London and New York with a side trip to Niagara Falls. Currently editing the best photos and have gone through 1512 of them. Only some 5,500 to go. Was away for three and a half weeks so have a lot of blogging to catch up with - of course I kept a diary.

Various Memes

Few memes that I've come up with in the last couple of days.

Not sure if it's footage of the Australian Prime Minister touring or An Idiot Abroad.

Since Snowtown's secret is out Adelaide has assumed the top secret position.

Adelaide - Australia's best-kept secret. Why is that?

But you mightn't know who Felix Baumgartner was if you'd been on another planet.

The World demonstrates - The Faceplant.

Not On John Howard's Watch

I can't get over the fact that Australia has only the 10th best T20 side in international cricket. Out of 11 teams! This would never have been allowed to happen on John Howard's watch. Time to dig him up and get him ready for the next election.
