Mish Mash

This post is a collection of short snippets...

Here's a very bad picture of my work (made with my phone... so excuse the quality). I've done four weeks there now and feel more comfortable. The meetings are still a bit of a pain because I don't understand a lot, but on the other hand I haven't had to talk in any of them, which also saves me. But January is gone so it's only two more months... and then we'll see.


Something I found on one of the russian websites....

This is a picture of the "National Debt of Germany"... which is increasing every minute... and on this picture it was 1056 Euros a second :)




And this is a picture of a stop-sign through one of the doorways of some administrative building which looked a little strange just by it's nature and also due to the darkness.



And while skimming over The Age the other day the national coverage amuzed me... I mean is this really what makes National News????!!!

"Today's National Coverage

* Terry Hicks finds little relief in new charges
* Queenslanders warned of flood croc danger
* Hicks could spend life in prison
* PM pushes nuclear power
* Troubled Qantas plane turns back
* Man stabbed on train
* Kylie splits from boyfriend
* Boogie boarder bitten by shark
* Another man charged with 'upskirt' photos
* Motocyclist dies in collision with car
* North Queensland on cyclone watch"


Looked up the word 'rant' in a Thesaurus and one of the synonyms was a word 'rodomontade'...

So on this note, the rodomontade is over :)
