The keyboard is mightier than the machine gun... The political, philosophical and general outpourings of a troubled soul living in Australia and blogging his Vietnam veteran's head off.
Nothing in this blog can be believed. If you think that anything in this blog is true or factual, you'll need to verify it from another source. Do you understand? No? Then read it again, and repeat this process, until you understand that you cannot sue me for anything you read here. Also, having been sucked into taking part in the mass-murder of more than 3 million Vietnamese people on behalf of U.S. Big Business "interests", I'm as mad as a cut snake (and broke) so it might be a bit silly to try to sue me anyway...

The counter shown below displays the number of Israeli military personnel refusing to serve in the Occupied Territories. I applaud their integrity and their strength of character. To me they are heroes of peace and humanity.

It was such a striking likeness of you I just had ta....
I hear tell it was supposed to be a likeness of Michaelangelo.
Actually, the more I look at it the more I imagine it looks like you...
when I go bald I might look a bit like that.
Michaelangelo was fond of quoting his likeness into his larger works and it fact a lot of "patron placement" went on in this particular painting, Dante was virtually a contemporary of Raphael compare to average age of this "classroom". The commissioning pope or Medici family member often , quite anachronistically out of costume, appear in the innumerable martyrdom and madonna and child paintings. But Michaelangelo had a distinctively broken nose and a great sense of humor. His face is seen in the Sistine Chapel attached to an empty bag of skin being quite irreverently handled.
When will some modern wag, paint a parody called "School Of The Americas" ???
