Im ranting today..and here is why. I just woke up to this article .. Link where the Japanese government has basically told the Australian government that they will kill Humpback whales anyway, despite our Prime Minister asking in a letter to the Japanese Prime Minister not to go ahead with plans to kill at least 50 humpback whales a year for "scientific purposes". There are only 4000 humpback whales left in existence! Our Prime Minister wrote them a letter. The decent thing would hav...

Tonight here in Australia we have the footy match called "state of origin" where queensland is up against nsw in a head to head battle of rugby league. Before the game starts they all stand up to sing the Australian National Anthem. Well.. this reminds me of when I was in the USA where everyone would stand and place their hand on their hearts and sing their anthm with pride. Not here, For those blockheads who dont know it, well Ill post the words for you.. Australians all let...

Im loving the fact that I have caused a stir in JU recently about Guns. Oh the Passion! Oh the drama! Oh please.. just get over it..

Ok.. Well there is a television show here in Oz that is called "My restaurant rules", > Link where couples are given a chance to win their own restaurant and 100 thousand dollars. Ive been watching this show since it first started and now we are down to the grand final. Tonight there were three teams remaining. Melbourne, Adelaide and Sydney.

I just read a great article .. Link which suggests from some recent important studies that Vitamin D .. the best source of it that is found in Sunshine, can significantly help to prevent alot of cancers and that for every skin cancer death 30 may be prevented by vitamin D exposure.

In all my time blogging with JU I have seen so many discussions brought up from politics to the spread of HIV to really anything you can think of..

I thank them for that. And I thank people for showing me tolerance and acceptance in a world where usually ther...

Here is an article I found, I posted it as a comment on my last article on Guns are for killing.. but I think it deserves a special mention on it's own it might clear up a little of the confusion on why I think society here, where I live is different to American society. The Australian/American Gun Law Debate By Gabrielle Reilly Being an Australian American, I regularly find myself in the middle of the great gun debate between the two countries’ philosophies on gun ownership. Aust...

In one of my recent articles about prized possessions there are a few comments about people owning guns and how it is their prized posession. In Australia, we have strict gun ownership laws. The average person doesnt own a gun here. I mean why else would you own a gun unless you were going to kill something or someone? Sure I can see people saying that it their right to own a gun, be it for collectors items or for personal protection, but surely the only reason you would own a gun i...
