2000-and-great

Well so far 2008 is off to a flying start, with a definite sense that there is some kind of positivity re-entering the great global psyche. Take for example, if you will...

  • SORRY - say no more (time for action)
  • Obama looking like the goods AND looking like he's got a good chance
  • quitting jobs and pursuing dreams
  • it's raining here
  • Castro retiring of his own volition, rather than assassination/natural death
  • The writers' strike and their win
  • the subsequent reduction of shite american telly available for syndication
The only major negs so far are
  • aUStrAlia day - put the flags away please
  • Brendan Nelson - A-grade fuckwit
  • that we have to wait until 2009 to see the back of GWB
  • (and this just in...) our Cate being robbed for her sublime performance in I'm Not There
As you can see - so far, so good. Here's hoping that the rapturous global awakening (a la 2012) begins here.
