Hi Everyone,
can you pass this onto anyone you think will help.

Since 2005 there have been bills before parliament almost every year pushing for same sex marriage.
LAST YEAR THE ONLY REASON THE BILL FAILED WAS BECAUSE CHRISTIANS GOT ON LINE AND LET PARLIAMENT KNOW WHAT THEY THOUGHT.
This year the pro same sex marriage people are doing the same and at present we are ahead.
WE NEED your support .
Please follow the directions below and let your local politician know your thoughts.

The gay and lesbian lobby have stirred up so much support through their form letters that the proportion of messages currently received by our Parliamentarians is 55% for same sex marriage as opposed to 45% to retain the current definition.

The following website is actually a government site so is non-sectarian. It is where people can find a survey set up by the House of Representatives to get a feel for the views of the average Australian. Please urge everyone who has their own e-mail address, to complete this survey. The survey includes a question on the two bills, one by Bandt and the other by Jones. The amendment by Jones goes even further by requiring ministers of religion to perform same sex marriages.

Please do this so that we may all be equal under the law

i had a ball at the Ball

Its been fun but I don't come here much anymore.

My acts of kindness are not random or without thought, they are not fleeting nor are they indiscriminate, I am kind, courteous and helpful to everyone because I choose to be that way, it is my chosen way of life, it is my spiritual path, it is my religion and my philosophy, it may not be the meaning to life but it is the meaning to my life and it gives my life meaning. If you smile at me I will smile back, but more importantly I will share a smile with you anyway, if you need help I will gladly lend you a hand, if you are hurt I will render aid, if I see you crying I will ask if you are ok and can I doing anything to help, if I see you broken down beside the road I will stop to lend a hand, if you need a place to stay I will offer you my couch, if you need a lift I will take you there and if you are hungry I will share a meal with you. I do this not because I want to be seen to be good but because I want to, because it makes me feel good and because it is the only truth I know.

these guys have it sorted, well done boys

This is why I am a vegetarian

Earthlings

I could go a McChicken meal right now with a side order of nuggets not!

I have just gotten back from the trip to Bamaga, which didn't go quote to plan a we had a car accident about 30ks south of the Jardine River my car has been put on barge back to Cairns and NRMA flew my self and my friend and driver Ben back to Cairns then hired us a car back to Brisbane, I have been back in Brisbane less than a week, when I was involved in another car accident yesterday, I was the passenger again and this time our car was T'boned by another car as we were getting on to the Pac Hwy near Logan, I think both cars are a right off, and I am going to be out of action for a while with a couple of broken ribs, a cracked sternum and a shoulder injury.
Two car accidents and two ambulance trips in less than two weeks I am starting to feel jinxed haha I think I need to stay away from cars for awhile.


USS ESSEX in Cains

Black Mountain near Cooktown

My car in Cooktown still in good shape

My car after hitting the back of a semi trailer,

it appears that we have found the limitations of the Lexus RX350 4WD

nasty this is what $30 000 worth of damage looks like

still we made it to the top of Australia and NRMA paid for the return trip by air back to Cairns.

PS here is a link to a Today Tonight story involving myself a little while ago
