Gold gold gold

If we are genuinely honest, and why shouldn’t we? most of us have, at some stage somehow somewhere, dreamt of what it would be like to be truly affluent.

Dennis Hopper

Dennis Hopper has died. A legend during his lifetime, I think he will be remembered. There was always a lovable quality to his acting, mixed-in with the drugged weirdness and unsettling intensity. I loved him in Apocalypse Now and Blue Velvet. If you want to talk about screen presence, he had it in spades. He always struck me as a funny sort of bloke as well. Do I amuse you? We'll remember him. Vaya con Dios, Dennis..

Abbott porkie pies

Well, well what have we here? A politician in a brief moment of honest insanity? Tony Abbott, leader of the Opposition announced somewhere that sometimes he says things that he may not be able to back up later. In short, he said something like 'You can believe what I say some of the time but not all of the time.' Go figure. I'm sure if's a fairly accurate reflection of most politician's 'honesty policy' but it's also a bit odd for an Opposition leader in the run up to an election campaign to say something like this.

Of course, the ABC and its hordes of leftoid pundits jumped at the chance to decry Abbott. I'm not sure. He does come out with things, that's for sure. I'm just not convinced he'd make for a mature and serious statesman. There seems to be a pathological edge to his demeanor when I hear and see him speak. Abb-odd?

And of course gold bullion is a unique investment, that goes without saying.

Wake up to coffee, yes please!

Well, these days I am the proud owner of a coffee maker with a programmable timer. This means, dear readers, that I am able to wake up to coffee freshly brewed in the morning. It's a gas, I can assure you. Life is better with the black coffee crutch to help us along at the crack of dawn. Hoorah!
