John Fitzpatrick. About New China, the Koreas, Myanmar, Thailand, and also about Japanese and Chinese writers and poets. The main emphasis is on North Asia and the political tectonics of this very important, powerful, and many-peopled area.

I like Vladimir Putin. He has all those excellent Libran qualities of riding horses bare chested across the steppes, and wrestling with tigers, and always dressing well...meticulously. All Librans I know, both men and women, do those things quite often. As for Trump the Gemini, well, he obviously has all those Gemini characteristics we all love...innovation, robustness, assertion, laughter, charisma, and self deprecation. With Mr Xi Jinping of China also a Gemini, the world is in good hands now.
anyway, my life is not about me anyway...sigh...a pure Libran sentiment. I think of myself as a Libran, of Viv, my colleague, of DJ, my step-daughter, as Librans, as I think of Vladimir Putin, as a Libran...faced with a world of Geminis...Trump...; Mr Xi of China as a Gemini...but as for Hillary Clinton...as a Scorpio...wow, is she going to hate everyone except herself, as is the Scorpio way, for her own failure, and seek to make everyone suffer for their crimes against her......anyway with Trump and Putin,etc I think, hey, this world will all work out quite well. Librans and Geminis in charge, damn good people. Damn good world.

I expect that in the time from now to heading off to Melbourne 20th December, at 603am I will be faced by 'The Usual Consequences of Action on Earth'...being...outrageous unaffordable personal or financial expense...or both...but then, after that, the clear clean lines of a human journey. On we go. Why not?
For any one interested, our journey from Tropical far far North Queensland, Australia to Temperate far far South Victoria, 3,000kilometres and whatever that is in miles...crossing 3 states, something around 2300miles I guess, will begin around December 20 and be updated daily with some pictures.
As I have noted earlier, the Americans would call this a Big Road Trip, but I call it, in the Australian vernacular.... a ' Really Fcuking Long Drive in a Truck.' With my OCD need for certainty in the face of Fate, we will be leaving here, Cairns, at 6am Eastern Standard Time Australia...on December 20th and we will arrive in Doncaster, Melbourne at 9pm Eastern Standard Daylight Time, on December 27th.
