while your request is being verified. I get this now when I log into my website. Everybody gets it too perhaps. Who’s verifying it? AI? All this stuff is annoying, but part and parcel of the hellscape we’re all living in. I went to the shops this morning and it was bloody cold out. I did manage to buy some English crumpets and some Irish black pudding, so it wasn’t all bad. Now that Christmas is coming up Broadway the stores will be getting more and more crowded as people rush to buy stuff before it’s too late and the Xmas is over.
It’s all crazy but then it’s a crazy world innit? This weeks AMRAP email has lobbed into my inbox and hasn’t disappointed. It’s chock a block full of the usual insane bullshit that I’m used to, such as the generic “Happy Holidays” greeting in the body of the email. I was quite entertained by one of the groups who seemed a little bit like outliers in this festivus mix of woke stupidity that is usually what is served up here.
They call themselves Mulga Bore Hard Rock. This is their bio “My name is Alvin Manfong. I’m 17 years old and the lead singer, guitarist, and songwriter of the Mulga Bore Hard Rock Band. I am from Anmatjerre Country in Central Desert. I grew up listening to old school rock from the 60’s and 70’s and country music. I’m a self-taught musician and my main musical influences are KISS but also Elvis Presley, Jonny Cash, Chuck Berry as well as Status Quo and Guns n Roses.” Fair enough. I can’t abide Chuck Berry, but I think I should take a listen.
I like it. It features people who look like real Aboriginal people, kangaroos, the Outback and even Witchetty grubs for fuck’s sake. They are authentic, more than I can say for some of the “First Nations” people I’ve seen demanding this, that and everything else. I fully realize that saying that is “Le Bad Think”, but it’s just my opinion ok?
Everyone in Victoria can now rest easy anyway, and all is forgiven since the governcunt has apologized to all the Aunts and Uncles and their offspring that have been oppressed by everyone since the dawn of time. Well maybe not “everyone”, that’s the sole domain of a certain group of people who shall not be named today.
Who asked you to? Apologize for what? Kevin Rudd did the same thing. Nobody asked you.
It’s tiresome and boring, but it’s Christmas time. I should not be so negative. Here’s a lighthearted story from the Post today, “During a recent appearance on “The Graham Norton Show,” Kate Winslet, 50, revealed a strange encounter she had with Eminem, 53, back in 2004.” Apparently rapper Emnimen who was also appearing on the show asked her if she would shave his butt. Kate replied, ‘I’m sorry, I don’t do personal grooming.’ Like what? I’m not gonna go with a Bic and get your crack love.” Oh dear, what’s with these people? Who shaves their butt anyway? Rap “music” seems to attrack the dumbest and the gayest people on the face of the earth.
It’s what I do if I’m in the vicinity of Rap “Music”

After all this writing I’m starting to get hungry. I had to go downstairs and turn on my industrial strength flatiron grill. It takes about 15 minutes to warm up. It’s basically two heavy iron plates which are electrically heated on either side. I had never been able to recreate the beautiful toasted cheese sandwiches which Coles in Melbourne used to make back in the dawn of time, so I bought my own commercial machine. In the city there was big cafeteria on about the fourth or fifth floor that was always bustling with people eating. You’d line up with a tray at one end of the counter and walk along picking out all the delicious things you wanted to eat.
Anything and everything was there and freshly made. The cakes were particularly good. The toasted sandwiches were ordered at another counter. Someone has written a short article about it here. (it was on the 6th floor) I even have a picture somewhere of me taken by Jody, my girlfriend at the time, standing there waiting for my cheese toast. Today I’m having flattened baguette that I bought from Aldi this morning. Delicious. It’s not flattened yet, but it will be after about 30 seconds in the grill.
Good Day.
Clearly we need more Mulga Bore Hard Rock
