Back at home in Tassie after a year and a half in London, I now dedicate myself to protecting society from unwarranted prosecution by the state. (And keeping criminals out of prison, but mostly that other thing.)

Italy 1-0 Australia

We was robbed, robbed I tell you. If that was a penalty then I'm the next Chief Justice of the High Court.

I have hidden depths. However, some of us seem to have problems with the proper use of punctuation and a lack of appropriate upper case.

I do care, it may have been when I was young and fit, but I did play soccer for six years. Also, it was a bad call and I don't like staying up until 3.00 am just to see a bad call in the last 10 seconds of the match.

Dear lower court,

It has come to my attention that you have some misconceptions about the appointment process for the high court. High court judges are not appointed by FIFA referees. If they were then I'm sure Tim would have been appointed. Unfortunately high court judges are appointed by John Howard who appoints whomever he thinks is most likely to support his right wing social agenda. Unfortunately Tim does not fit this criterion. If he did, then he may in fact get appointed as some recent appointments *cough* callinan *cough* have shown that ability is not actually a prerequisite for appointment.

yours sincerely

Do right wing and social really belong side by side like that?

Yes, 'right wing' and 'social' do belong side by side like that. Right wingers have a very clear idea of how they want society to be.

That's a rather broad generalisation you made there. You should be careful making those sort of assumptions.
