I've done my national duty today in voting in a secret ballot for the Australian Government...I voted for all Greens Party but not to make the country greener...it is too fucking green here in the Far North, it is just too fucking green, and far too fucking natural and the weather is really appalling most of the year...but I voted Greens because they have a policy of treating refugees as actual human beings...a real innovation in the Australian Psychology of Self. I don't think human beings are the brightest or best fruit on the tree of life at all... never have been and never will be... but at least we could treat each other, whilst we are here for a short time, as equals of some temporal worth and at least relative meaning. It is good for us.

About Me

My photo
JOHN Fitzpatrick
乌龟。 议院。 The Blog is sometimes serious, other times attempts are made at Humour.谢谢你,中国!我爱中国! I'm interested in North Asia-China, Japan and Korea, and Siberia; and also SE Asia, particularly Bangkok where we sometimes live when not in North Eastern China or North Eastern Australia. My wife and I do tend to commute a lot. Politically, if that matters, I'm usually on the side of strong central socialism in one form or another whenever it is based on astute Confucian principles and enables a free firing capitalist market system with intelligent and very strong controls. I am a published Australian writer, poems, non-fiction, and fiction. Fiction was book for young people Called Song of the Casskins published well by Scholastic Australia/Bloomsbury UK; Book of prose The Water Planet published by Satcen, Neutral Bay Sydney, Book of Non-fiction Reflections on Palliative Care...published Fitzwahoo 2000. I am slowly still writing 4 other books.
