what a foolish man

is this Foreign Minister of Australia. Foolish and ignorant - if there is a difference. An Australian soldier was killed in an accident yesterday where his gun discharged while he was cleaning it and Minister Downer said Well remember of course that he was not killed in combat. Not killed in combat? Where was he when he was killed? He was killed in a combat zone where nearly 3000 Invasion troops have been killed not to mention how many poor bloody iraquis have been killed and this fool says Oh yair but. The RSL and the soldier's widow ought to be very angry at the hide, ignorance and foolishness of this idiot.
I showed Joseph how to play Solitaire the other night - its a good programme for teaching mouse and clicking skills. I couldn't get him to stop. He learned very quickly. Maybe I might have a role in computer classes or something.
I leave for Brisbane for 10 days tomorrow. Went shopping yesterday - to get some red meat into the blood. Sores are taking a long time to heal -over a month now. Bought 3 pieces sirloin steak K20, 6 pack K16, frozen chips K11, blackberry jam K11, Tea dunking biscuits Nice K4.4, Frozen Peas and Corn K6, 2 loaves bread K6.6, Sugar K2, Milk powder K3, milk K4, pepper K6. Total groceries K92.
