Hitting The Big Time
When ordinary folks like you and me meet the world's powerful and elite, we might not know what to say, do or even think. But not our Bob. Mixing it with the heavy hitters of the world, hitting the Big Time. He's our man of the moment. Image from Bob Carr's own blog: http://bobcarrblog.wordpress.com/2012/04/26/clinton-and-carr-talk/... ...Apr 26 -
"Like a Tiger"
Whenever diplomatic danger is near, our Bob Carr is ready to respond - leaping out of the jungle of Australian democracy "like a tiger" to correct any wrongdoings or misdeeds. We salute you, Bob! Thanks to http://www.abc.net.au/worldtoday/content/2012/s3461035.htm for the photo. ... ...Apr 19 -
I can be a Hipster too!
This one is for the hipsters. If you thought Bob Carr wasn't cool, wasn't hip enough to be your "go-to man" in Canberra, this will change your mind. Bob's so hip, he's hipstamatic! Thanks to Melvyn Knipe of www.quirkyportraits.com for the image - hope you don't mind us using it on our Bob Carr Homage. Don't worry, really only three people eve ...Apr 16 -
International Man of Action
Here's Bob looking like a man of action. A man you'd turn to in a crisis. A man who looks great in a lilac shirt. He's our man... Bob Carr! Image source: http://www.theaustralian.com.au/national-affairs/bob-carr-at-odds-with-julia-gillard-on-ministry-bid/story-fn59niix-1226285632288 ... ...Apr 12 -
Vermin Supreme - Need I say more?
This is almost off topic for the "Song of the Day" category, but it is overall something pretty cool. A bloke by the name of Vermin Supreme is a serial US Presidential candidate. This song by The Gregory Brothers takes some statements of his from a real candidate's forum and turns it into song. It's probably not one of their best ever ...Jan 24 -

You May Find Yourself In Another Part Of The World...
I remember Milan as a time capsule. The last visit to the north of Italy was on a family sojourn in the heady days of 1995. While I am becoming increasingly aware that my blog entries are labouring under the reminiscence of times past their use by, I cannot write of other worlds while ensconced in the heart of Milano. 1995 feels so far away ...May 15 -
I Want To Be In That Number....
The experience of being a football supporter is surprisingly unique. You never actually sit down and think it thorough, until you do…and then you end up writing a blog about it.By unique, I am referring to the way you belong to a certain football club. It is a tribal, parochial association that finds you defiantly proclaiming your allegian ...May 02 -
I'm Looking Through You.....
I like to watch…..No, I'm not some dirty perverted old man, hiding in the bushes with my plastic mac rustling in the dark. What I mean is that I am a fully qualified, expert-level people watcher. I am completely committed to observing folk in their natural environment and attempting to work out what they do with their lives. It is an underrated sou ...Apr 25 -
Not Everyone Can Carry The Weight Of The World.
My state of denial is over. Like a poor misguided fool……fool, I turned my back, rammed my index fingers in my ears and adopted the lalalalalalal- not listening position for far too long. The simple act of purchasing Collapse Into Now would mean it was complete. REM have left the building for good. I will never have the pleasure of hearing new dr ...Apr 18 -
Drivin' On 9. I Sure Miss You...
Over my life I have lost the friendship of two close mates over a girl. Sure, there's always more to it than that; but the end game of both friendships involved a member of fairer sex coming between us. I bear no animosity to either bloke, I just find the loss of their mateship sad. Over the journey you come to realise friendship comes in differe ...Apr 11 -
