So I'm currently on tour in Taiwan and the tour includes stays in 5 star hotels. The first night, we're in the Sun Moon Lake area in Fleur de Chine Hotel. The rooms are swank as and the toilet has a bidet.
So I try it out it's weird. Direct jets of water on your bunghole is just weird. But the engineer in me decided it was time to test this thing out, so I then proceeded to sit in a different position on the toilet seat and start it up again. Sure enough, it fired directly where it needed to.
So, engineers have developed a way to accurately find your bunghole whichever way you're sitting on the can. Wonder how they describe their jobs to strangers hahahaha.
Pigeon Nest
A pair of pigeons have nested in one of my hedges (started near Australia Day). This is a picture of their babies from 2 days ago. I've left some second hand seed out for the parents, and it looks like they prefer eating it off the ground as opposed to a dish.
The two babies are now beginning to get some pep in them. They will puff up acting big and strong like their parents did when I got too close. They are nearly too big for the nest. This morning, the mother (or father) was sitting off to the side of them as they no longer fit underneath. Won't be too long before they fledge I think...
Thanks ALP
Thanks ALP for the carbon tax, the flood levy and now the 30% extra I will have to pay for health insurance.
Think you will get my vote in the next federal election? In the spirit of my last post, I will spell it out clearly: NO.
I can only hope you get ousted before you decided to further take from middle income earners where you should be targeting large multi-nationals who are posting millions/billions of dollars profit. That would be the sensible thing to do would it not?

No means no, anything else means yes
To our "esteemed" politicians,
Here are words of advice. Any answer other than no, means yes.

One year into ownership ...
I've had my current car for just over a year now and I have three years to go before I am able to get rid of it. Whilst it's still early days yet, driving this car has actually been an enjoyable experience, although sometimes I do think what else I could be doing with the money spent.
Last year I bit the bullet and decided to put a Ford Focus XR5 (ST for the non Aussies) on a novated lease, due to the amount of kilometres I am currently doing. Whilst not the most fuel efficient car, I can honestly say that I look forward to the drive to/from work (provided I'm not stuck in a traffic jam). A little bit of added fruit on the car makes it even better to drive.
In terms of sheer driving experience, I probably can't say this car is better than a Nissan Skyline that I used to have (it could be the nostalgia goggles though). The straight 6 engine was smooth, it loved to rev and the steering and chassis balance was spot on. The Focus with it's 5 cylinder engine has a nice warble to it but doesn't rev as hard. Whilst also a front wheel drive, the chassis is set up quite well, especially with a stiffer rear swaybar.
It's probably the reason why this car (and others like the Golf GTI) are popular in Europe. Long service intervals, decent fuel economy and handling, power when you need it and none of the impracticalities of a sports coupe. Need to carry people? There's 4 doors and decent rear leg room. Need to carry a load? Drop the back seats and load it up.
The average lifespan of my cars has been two years to date. This car already will double that. When it comes to the end of the lease, I'm not sure what I'm going to do. With the amount of kilometres on the odometer, it's not going to be worth much. Provided the cost of fuel hasn't skyrocketed, I might just keep it....

Thankyou fucktard
To the person(s) who keep breaking my sprinkers, I hope karma pays you a visit you inconsiderate piece of scum. Let me know where you live so I can break your sprinklers and underlying pipes, so you can spend your time fixing trivial shit.
...Need to find my PVC cement and yet another trip to Bunnings to buy pipe joiners for yet another fucktards actions.

Who voted in these ALP muppets?
I for one didn't.
Once again, "families" get the breaks with rebates for children, whilst singles get reamed up the wazoo paying for the incompetent governments mistakes.
In the new budget, flood levy for all (how about QLD footing the bill to rebuild their own shite?), means tested health insurance rebate, FBT changes for salary packaged cars...
My tax bill grows larger every year, fuel, food, electricity, gas prices going through the roof, interest rates are on the rise.... this government needs to F@CK OFF.
