It would be more accurate to suggest that the current government is run according to the dictates of the newscorpse head honcho.

You surely cannot be suggesting that our current government is run according to the dictates of news headlines?

Haha. Yesterday I forgot that I was half way through making a cup of tea and I left it on the sink without milk in it. I put it in the microwave to heat up but I did put in half a bamboo skewer so that it wouldn't blow up on me 😄

My first reaction is "So?"
My next reaction is "Not the papers I read". From my point of view the most important thing the media (I read) focused on this week is the debacle that was Abbotts proposal to make Australian citizens stateless.
My last reaction is that perhaps its time for you to read other newspapers other than the Tellie.

I think we should have a senate enquiry and then perhaps a Royal Commission into the issue.

you'll be ok if you understand the
dangers:
This type of phenomenon occurs if water is heated in a clean cup. If foreign materials such as instant coffee or sugar are added before heating, the risk is greatly reduced. If superheating has occurred, a slight disturbance or movement such as picking up the cup, or pouring in a spoon full of instant coffee, may result in a violent eruption with the boiling water exploding out of the cup.
What Can Consumers Do to Avoid Super-Heated Water?

Actually I rarely read newspapers, and just as rarely get my news from the "Tellie" (sic). My news comes from various news sites on the internet and from the radio on my trip to work and back.
Oh and from Facebook, Twitter, and of course, here
You and I obviously are not on the same page.

While we're at it I think we should lobby for GST on condoms and lubricants to bring them in line with the tampons.
