The Dark Side

It's the end of the Jedi Order if 8-year-old padawans are joining the Dark Side!

Australian Tourist Map

Just in case one gets confused about what's where in Australia...

Turkish Delights

I've tried them, and they're okay, but I don't get the fuss over Turkish delights.
Really, Edward? Was it really worth going over to the dark side for these treats? Even if they were enchanted...
That being said, I wonder what it would be like if I made some of my own...
I like the comment that asks, "Is this some kind of porn video?"

Stanley

I think Stanley has a hard time getting along with other dogs. I don't even think he knows he's a dog. I think he thinks he's human. An experience from today...

Stanley [greets neighbor's dog on opposite fence]

Neighbor's dog: bark bark bark

Stanley [stares back at neighbor's dog]

Neighbor's dog: bark bark bark

Stanley [lifts leg and urinates on neighbor's dog]

Neighbor's dog [in shock, then even louder]: BARK BARK BARK

I think if they both had fingers rather than paws, they just gave each other the equivalent of "the finger".

Un-employered

So, I think I don't have an employer anymore. My prior employer being Queensland Health was dismantled in the wake of a $16 million embezzelment scandal. (see link below)

Odd. I've heard of employees being fired, but not employers being fired. As long as I still get a pay advice. I guess I need to change my letterhead to not read Queensland Health anymore. Cheers.

Weeds

Apparently, the weeds in Australia are ginormous, too!

Panorama

Here is a panorama from atop Toowoomba Hospital where I work. I didn't catch it in this series, but there is a helicopter pad as well.
