"Quid Pro Quo Alius Nusquam"
.... or to put it in English "Something for something else nothing". It's how I think. I'm happy to do good deeds for other people effectively giving them "something for nothing" I am embarrassed when they do the same for me :). In most of my "relationships" I tend to apply the title of this post though ( Read more... ) -
West Wing
Every so often I get the urge to watch West Wing. I occasionally wonder why. I suspect that my disaffection with the Australian Politics stems from my Choices of Who Cares. Not so long ago, to my amazement, the US public chose as their President a Symbol rather than another essentially faceless lacklustre Politician. OK, the Symbol faces issues ( Read more... ) -
OK so....
While I didn't post on the last time I went to Sin I'm definitely posting this time.... I did a lot of dancing as "evidenced" by the "fact" that I slept in, which I generally only do if quite tired ;). that might not seem like much but I haven't danced enough at Sin, prior to this, in the last six months to be that tired ( Read more... ) -

It occurs to me that one of the issues that I have with our current society is other peoples expectations of safety being provided to them. It is a strange belief that seems to have started around the start of the twentieth century. This attitude is far more obvious in a metropolitan suburban area than it is in a rural location, probably because ( Read more... ) -

Recently I've given consideration to what drives some of my attitudes. It occurs to me that at least some of the pettier ways I act or ways I feel sometimes are due to a sense of fairness. As the years have passed I've come to see, and agree with, at least some the world-view of the "card-carrying" conservatives. I have examples in mind of things I ( Read more... ) -

So insert more time into the LJ :). I should have posted a Sin entry a fortnight ago and didn't. Then the music was acceptable and I went with others to have brekky at Galleria "Fast Eddies" which turned out to be a mistake because it took them an hour to get our food prepared by which time some people were over it. Friday a week ago I had another ( Read more... ) -

So I went to the Sin "Aesthetic Perfection" Event yesterday. It was regrettably low on numbers but worth the money paid for the concert. "Aesthetic Perfection"'s sound was similar enough to some other industrial bands to feel comfortable with, for any number of people. The lead singer was energetic and put on a good stage show. I suspect that if ( Read more... ) -

OK having watched one of the light saber vids (thanks EB) it occurred to me that while there was no specific fashion to the Sith that I ever saw on screen the fan sith fashion appears to be form-fitting Goth.... no that's not what this post is about.... it merely lead me in the direction of another stray thought.... while the on screen Empire is ( Read more... ) -

So, Sin, last night with Boo'ful. The music was passable. Adele said that Boo'ful and I looked cute together, so that makes a third person, and one somewhat more objective at that :). I got edged across to the edge of the dancefloor by people attempting to make extra rooms for themselves that I started using elbows. Some rather drunk girl tried to ( Read more... ) -

Went to Sin last night. I hadn't counted on being really sleepy though. The music was passable but I couldn't work up enthusiasm, mostly due to heat and recent lack of exercise. All files have been moved onto the network drive that should be there.
