The Turtle House

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.

Julian Assange is a remarkable and rare Australian. He tells the truth. Let this be a lesson to our children as to what becomes of truth tellers.

Motorbike Test Pilot. I just went for a quick spin around the block for a test ride. Smart helmet and boots for protection. Unfortunate exhaust note. "I don't want it mate, but, thanks, and, um, I'm sorry about the seat".

I am not sure if Australia can beat Peru tonight. Peru hasn't done well, but nor has Australia. Neither were expected to do well and both have lived up to that expectation. Worth watching just to see Tim Cahill on the field. He actually can score goals from time to time, and, yes, he is a bit of a dickhead, but, well... he's... OUR dickhead. So the head-on clash begins here at Midnight...the Australian Cassowary (primal, defensive, territorial, vicious, & can kill with one kick) pitched against the Peruvian Llama (deceptively cuddly, 4 leg advantage, and can spit in your face a lot). It IS the World Game!

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.
