"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!" - Rocky Balboa

Careful what you wish for. Barnett's mob have squandered a lot of money, sure. But they came good on the NIB upgrade, went ahead with the stadium build - and told the WAFC to forget managing it. Then they arranged a record sponsorship just as our neck was on the chopping block with the axemen hovering. The other mob will get in but who knows their intentions with the sponsorship.
I am thoroughly disillusioned with politicians of all parties. I had planned to vote for an independent. He has a long track record of voluntary and community work. I was pretty disappointed when the ballot arrived and found he was contesting the other half of Mandurah and I was back to Hobson's Choice. Ruled the Libs out for parachuting in a long time party apparatchik who's just moved in and who has not shown any record of community involvement anywhere.

I voted bottom up this time, making it a vote for who I hate least.
That was still a difficult decision.

As I have said before on other forums - does anyone remember when the muppet show was funny?
