A Bushfire Thankyou ...

Well its been a pretty hectic week over here down under, i opened my newspaper about 3 days ago and was told that on the 6th of Feb i was living in the hottest place on the planet, ten degreese hotter than Africa's serengetti ...

3 days later I open my newspaper to find over 130 people wiped out because of the fires. I live right across from the bushland and its a scary thought to think that flames 50 metres high could be seen in other places around Australia, my area was lucky, others were not.

Reading through some of the personal stories in the paper and written elsewhere, its pretty traumatic just reading them, let alone going through what some of these people have been through. I wont elaborate on any of them, if you want to read any www.smh.com.au has a number of stories and updates.

Three more things before i sign off, firstly, addressing the people who deliberatly light fire's, in particular the people who lit the ones this week, i was happy to read that once caught they will be up for murder charges, and for those who think they wont get caught, Australia has the worlds best fire investigation units in the world who's sole job it is to track down these people. They are very good at there job, and they will find you.

Addressing the fire fighters, not that any of you will probably get this message, but just a quick thankyou for your tiresome work, if i could get over there and help out i would, tho i know id just get in the way and make your job harder, so i just wish you all the luck in the world.

Finally, PETA, its at times like this that i absolutly loathe some of the things you do, spending money on silly advertisements asking for models not to wear fur, or suggesting people eat less meat, right now its a time where an organisation like you could realy do something productive, because as i type, there are hundreds of thousands of animals needing evacuation, needing water, needing medical care, and just needing someone to give a damn about them.

Ok well thats my bitch for the day!

Im out ...

  1. PETA is too busy making "Sexiest Celebrity Vegetarian" lists to help out.

    Crazy about all those fires. I hope they round up all those little Beavis wannabes and shove fire hoses up their asses, and then turn them on full blast.
