Boxing day.

Ahh Boxing Day.. the mighty day that probably has something to do with boxes. Not like Christmas, which isn't likely to correlate with Jesus' birthday, the Queens Birthday public holiday, which doesn't correlate with the Queen's birthday, Good Friday for when bad things happened, Australia day, which marks neither the day Europeans came to Australia nor when Australia was formed, nor formally possessed (just the First Fleet landing), and ANZAC day - which seems to correlates to a randomly selected day.

Now, New Years Day, that's a day with a meaningful date.

I might chuck some bloggy bits up:

DLP right-wing nutters less right than Labor.
The Victorian DLP chap has expressed his support for gay civil unions.
The Vic ALP is still refusing to consider them.

MrLefty lost his blog to a hacker, temp site at http://hackedlefty.blogspot.com/, new in-exile blogs at http://anonymousleftyinexile.blogspot.com/ and http://boltwatchinexile.blogspot.com/.

Interesting article on holocaust denialists amongst Muslims.

Weather was pretty nuts here this Christmas period - coldest xmas on record.

The Exclusive Brethren seems to be doing the work of Jesus again. "You cannot love Christ if you wear pants (jeans), and you cannot be a Christian if you leave the Brethren". The Levis of the anti-Christ... The Age (finally) refers to them as a cult - instead of their usual, more docile-sounding, 'sect' in telling this latest story of family destruction.
