Which Aussie Organisation?

Ace sent me this jem doing the email rounds ...
Guess which high profile Aussie Organisation these people belong to ...

36 have been accused of spousal abuse

3 have done time for assault
7 have been arrested for fraud
19 have been accused of writing bad checks
117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses
71, repeat 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit
14 have been arrested on drug-related charges
8 have been arrested for shoplifting
21 currently are defendants in lawsuits, and
84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year

Can you guess which organization this is?


Give up yet? . . .


it's the 535 members of the AUSTRALIAN PARLIAMENT IN CANBERRA
The same group of Idiots that crank out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.

(NOTE: I have not personally verified the allegations made above by an unknown thrid party.)

My Mini's BirthK today!

Happy BirthK to Mini, Happy BirthK to Mini ....

My 1977 Leyland Clubbie went round the clock today. I'm not sure how many it's seen before.
Check the odometer - 00000.0 !!

Hip Hip .. Horay !!!

To celebrate, I videoed some of the twisty bits between Longley & Ferntree under the shadow of Mt Wellington on my way home.
It should be noted at no time did I exceed the speed limit by more than 10km.

Slowband warning: the two videos are around 20mb each and will likely take an hour to download on a 56k modem!
