It Was Only Supposed to be a Week Off or So

Well, if you were wondering where I've been for the past three weeks, I haven't been abducted by tobacco control industry aliens or anything.  At least I don't remember that happening.  I had meant to take a brief holiday from blogging and tweeting for about a week.  I had a few things going on and I had committed myself to working on some stuff for a musicians' site (which I am still doing). 

But then the olympics started, and despite all the hoo-hah about the heavy-handed commercialism, I was utterly enthralled by the events and olympic athletes. And so a week passed, and then another... and another...

But the games are over, and so semi-regular blogging shall return shortly.  I apologise for the absence.

I do note that high court challenge by the opponents of plain packs in Oz has failed.  This is not surprising at all.  In a most consistent manner, Australia's high court has been doing its damnedest to destroy its country by aiding and abetting the current shitbags in government.  We'll have to see what their next general election brings for Oz. If another party takes control, will it be more of the same or worse (like here in the UK)? 

Watch out for tobacco control industry aliens. If you see a satellite dish out coming out of your arse, then they've got to you.
