A Better World Without George Bush

I’m not normally one to make political comment, but I am so happy to see the end of George W Bush’s Presidency that I feel compelled to become indulgent with just one.

With the inauguration of President Obama, we now have someone who offers integrity, fairness and not the least – intelligence fitting of a world leader. I’ll say no more – these cartoons say it all!

My Fifty-Five Year Anniversary

Today, July 17, is quite a momentous anniversary for me. It’s fifty five years since I was required to report for National Service training and become a soldier in the Australian Army.
