Tuesday, September 26, 2006. Howard to sell Australian uranium to India. Pop quiz, Hotshot! You have an awesome product that just about everyone wants to get their hands on, but your company's code of practice limits your potential customer base to a select few people who are part of an exclusive club. You know how much money could be made by selling your product outside the club. What do you do? What do you do? We already sold uranium to China, after insisting they sign the relevant treaty, but come on!

Monday, September 25, 2006. Apple calls for podcast cease and desist. Is the term "podcast" legally owned by Apple? Some try to argue its origins, claiming the pod in this case stands for "personal on demand", but we all know that's a load of rubbish. The term certainly comes from the immensely popular portable mp3 players that exist under the Apple brand. Apple have a real problem on their hands if they can't trademark their own brand, but honestly . they screwed up. Maybe they just need to move...Read ...

Friday, September 29, 2006. Flight attendants join mile high club. There are several ways to interpret the phrase inflight entertainment . I’m going to ignore individual monitors on the rear-side of seat headrests in favour of something more juicy. Let’s talk flight attendants! How many times have you asked yourself I wonder how many of the Virgin hostesses are? What do you automatically assume is going on when you read the following headline: Qantas jet crew 'had sex romp'. Well that’s what their crew m...

Saturday, September 23, 2006. US death toll more than 9/11. Here's an issue that's bigger than proverbial Jesus. One could argue sides until the cows come home, and yet despite the magnitude of it, these latest facts speak for themselves. As of yesterday the number of US Solidiers killed in Afghanistan and Iraq since, and because of, 9/11 is higher than the number of people killed on that fateful September day. So many questions arise. Whose life is worth dying for? Whose death is worth dying for? I am a...

Wednesday, May 17, 2006. Sperm from Donor 401. I recently heard about a man in California known only as number 401. He was a sperm donor who stopped assisting laboratory-style reproduction 2 years ago. He was the perfect Arian and his DNA was in high demand from women seeking blonde-haired, blue eyed children of German extraction who tan well. I’ll return now to the 401 children whose mothers keep in touch with each other, sharing baby photos and developmental stories. Can you imagine the competition?

Wednesday, September 27, 2006. War on Iraq. Woops! Breaking news: US foreign policy not so well received by the rest of the world. A declassified report shows the US government is aware that the war in/on Iraq has only made things worse. The extremist terrorist groups have been fuelled by anger and resentment as a result of the war on Isla . er, terrorism. Since 2003 the threat of terrorism has spread across the globe, recruiting members in the truck-loads as it goes. We live in Australia. I'm not even f...

Wednesday, October 18, 2006. High school graduates all stupid. I put my inability to recall most of what I learned in school down to the fact that it hasn’t proven particularly useful throughout the course of my life. In fact, I’m sort of finding out that most of the knowledge I really need in life I was never taught at all. I am currently feeling like a complete dope because I’m facing aspects of life I know nothing about, like buying a house and entering a 30-year mortgage. I don’t really understand wh...

Thursday, August 09, 2007. A warning to be heeded. Please do not make the same mistake that I made. By default I opened an ING Superannuation account, via my old employer, and I recently tried to transfer my accrued super to my Virgin Super account. I filled out all the forms, crossed my Ts, dotted my Is - Signed, sealed and delivered. For those who haven't transferred money between super funds before, the forms require the membership number of your old fund. This is relevant (see below). So my warning i...
