Don't give up on hope. The high court interpretation of the Australian constitution is clearly something those biased and partisan judges thought long and hard about before declaring their knee jerk reaction. It might be argued their decision was the best one to respect the constitution as it is written, and contain any damage to the ALP. It might also be argued that those judges have misinterpreted the constitution and transferred sovereignty to other nations in a way never intended by the writers of the constitution. Even so, Turnbull declares he is having fun, and Julie Bishop has said there is no need for an audit. Another Liberal, a Tasmanian senator Stephen Parry has resigned after finding out he has been called British. Things are really serious when a known Tasmanian has dual citizenship.

Another unfair thing is fines for speeding, according to ALP Deputy (NSW) Michael Daley. As former roads minister, he increased revenue from those fines. He claimed he had had a clean thirty year record when he contested an earned fine recently. In fact he had had three known fines for excessive speeding. The issue of revenue from that is rightly upsetting for those hit. As a professional driver in the 90's, I never once got fined. However, another driver doing exactly the same as me may have lost their license several times over. Rich, powerful people like Daley can lie to the court and get given reprieves. The issue will not disappear soon. I believe it won't go away before cars are driverless. Maybe we can fine drivers for smoking too?

Victorian consumer affairs Minister Marlene Kairouz apologised for telling residents to shut their doors to Irish people during a warning against scammers. People are outraged she shamed Irish people. What about Presbyterians? With all the atrocities committed around the world, why pick on the Irish? A man believed to be Presbyterian has killed many people after driving over them in NYC. The NYC mayor resisted the obvious temptation to denounce the Irish and the issue was called a lone wolf attack. There are wolves in Ireland? Clearly the minister was trying to be politically correct, or something. Just like the new NZ government which has plans to accept refugees into NZ from the Pacific fleeing climate change. They won't need to prove climate change, which is great for scammers.

Another great for scammers moment is the so called culture around Ayer's Rock. The rock was given an air strip and tourism built around the feature. Anthropologists marketing their research have declared it sacred. Apparently it is not traditionally climbed, which makes sense as that would be exhausting and pointless for hunter gatherers. The enlightenment began in Europe when a lovesick monk, Petrarch, climbed a mountain (Mont Ventoux), and wrote about it. I guess that sacred site must never be visited too. Now that we know about that monk and that woman, Laura. It isn't to prop up tourism, but to prop up the mythology of Anthropological activism which is the likely reason behind the move.

Special mention must be made of a philosophy professor who bullied a bisexual student for expressing concern that ten nations around the world kill homosexuals. The student recorded their conversation, in which the student was threatened with referral to special counselling, and told their entire academic career was in jeopardy. The truth is that student is too smart to have a career as an academic. Too independent. That professor is Vice Chancellor material, and might one day run to be President of the US for Democrats. Except that professor did not listen to the student, claiming they did not have time to. The professor relied on a document to ignore the student's defence. Hillary would have done the same as POTUS.

Jingle Bell Rock

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and jingle bells ring
Snowin' and blowin' up bushels of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air

What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh

Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell rock

Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime in jingle bell time
Dancin' and prancin' in Jingle Bell Square
In the frosty air

What a bright time, it's the right time
To rock the night away
Jingle bell time is a swell time
To go glidin' in a one-horse sleigh

Giddy-up jingle horse, pick up your feet
Jingle around the clock
Mix and a-mingle in the jinglin' feet
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle bell
That's the jingle...

Intro to Locals for the Conservative Voice

David Daniel Ball calls himself the Conservative Voice.

I'm a teacher with three decades experience teaching math to high school kids.I also work with first graders and kids in between first grade and high school. I know the legends of why Hypatia's dad is remembered through his contribution to Math theory. And I know the legend of why followers of Godel had thought he had disproved God's existence.

I'm not a preacher, but I am a Christian who has written over 28 books all of which include some reference to my faith. Twelve blog books on world history and current affairs, detailing world events , births and marriages on each day of the year, organised by month. Twelve books on the background to and history of Bible Quotes. One Bible quote per day for a year. An intro to a science fiction series I'm planning, post apocalyptic cyber punk. An autobiography with short story collections.

I'm known in Australia for my failure as a whistleblower over the negligence death of a school boy. ...

Bambi in the time of the Jukurrpa of the Tanami

AI adapted
To adapt the story of Bambi to the Dreamtime of Warlpiri culture in the Tanami Desert, we’ll reimagine the tale with respect for Warlpiri storytelling traditions, cosmology, and the desert environment. The Dreamtime (Jukurrpa) is a sacred framework where ancestral beings shape the land, law, and life, so Bambi’s journey will reflect Warlpiri values like kinship, connection to country, and survival in harmony with nature. I’ll keep the essence of Bambi—a young creature’s growth amid loss and discovery—while grounding it in the Tanami’s ecology and Warlpiri worldview. Since Bambi is a specific narrative, I’ll translate its core themes rather than reproduce the original text verbatim, ensuring cultural sensitivity. The story will be concise yet vivid, as requested.

Bambi in the Jukurrpa of the Tanami
In the Jukurrpa, when the Tanami Desert glowed under the first stars, the ancestral beings shaped the land. From the spinifex and red sand, they formed Jampijinpa, a young red ...

The Ballad of Yaparla and the Serpent-Man

In Tanami’s red sands where spinifex grows,
Where waterholes gleam ‘neath the sun’s golden glare,
Lived Yaparla, sweet maid, with a heart pure as snow,
Her kindness a light in the desert so bare.

Her father, a wise man, kept songs for the land,
To guard the soak’s waters where life held its sway.
But drought gripped the earth with a merciless hand,
And he sought a new spring to ease their dismay.

Deep in a gorge where the rocks hid the sky,
He found a clear pool with fish dancing free.
But a voice shook the stones with a thunderous cry,
“Who steals my sweet water without leave of me?”

Out slid the Wanyarra, half-man, half a snake,
His scales flashed like opals, his eyes cold with pain.
“For your kin’s life,” he hissed, “one price I must take—
Send Yaparla to me, or your land drinks no rain.”

The father returned, his heart heavy with woe,
And told his dear daughter the serpent’s demand.
“I’ll go,” said Yaparla, her voice soft and low,
“For my people, my country, I’ll walk that red sand.”

She came to the gorge with her digging stick strong,
Singing songs of her kin ‘neath ...

Ballad of Lee Harvey Oswald

Created with Grok, Pictory, And Topmediai
Content from listening to podcasters Hunley and Groubert of America's Untold Stories. They tell it better than me

Folk Song: "The Ballad of Lee Harvey Oswald"
Verse 1
Oh, Lee Harvey Oswald, a man they did frame,
The deep state and CIA, they tarnished his name.
They said he went to Mexico, a lie they did spin,
While he fought for his service, his honor within.
Chorus
Sing for Lee Oswald, innocent and bold,
Framed by the shadows, a story untold.
With courage he stood, though the truth they denied,
A patriot’s heart in a nation that lied.
Verse 2
On that dark day in Dallas, they said he shot Tippit,
Left a wallet behind, but the tale didn’t fit.
Arrested with his own in hand, the proof was right there,
But the deep state kept spinnin’ their web of despair.
Chorus
Sing for Lee Oswald, innocent and bold,
Framed by the shadows, a story untold.
With courage he stood, though the truth they denied,
A patriot’s heart in a nation that lied.
Verse 3
They trained him in Russian, sent him off to the East,
A ...
