Die Hard 1, 2 and 3.

The perfect Christmas trilogy and then the chaser of Commando.

My fave necklace

My brother gave me Barbed Wire and Cucumber Sandwiches about the cancelled South African tour of England in 1970 and the Penguin Classics Stonewall Reader. He knows me well.

I laughed at all the negative emojis and comments to the A League Facebook page wishing everyone a Happy Holidays to everyone, despite the fact my club has a Muslim player (Aziz Behich) and a Jewish lad (Yonatan Cohen, whom is now my favourite Melbourne City player this player even though I am a Muslim, and he is a decorated Israeli international player)

The Boomer/Karen/Snowflake types who feel triggered by people and or organisations saying/wishing Happy Holidays instead of Merry Christmas are hopefully are dying breed of patrotic/bible thumping throwbacks.

I don't have any problem saying Merry Christmas and wishing those who celebrate it a very happy and peaceful one.

I also wish to say Happy Chanukkah to those who celebrate it, and that is also a holy festival that annually comes close to Christmas every year, and this is why I think Happy Holidays tends to pop up more often as a greeting this year too.

Although the right-wing bogans always try to find a way to blame Muslims/Middle Easten folks for trying to cancel Christmas, even though I know not one Muslim Aussie (including my cousin who is a very influential person in political and social levels) who has called on such unnecessary change.

That is a fine looking lawn.

Curious how it looks end of Feb.

Stay tuned.

How good is a fresh cut and a water? Then just admiring.

Would have to be in my top things in life.

With the amount of rain we've had over the last week my lawn is looking nice and green.

I'm wondering if it's worth the effort of trying to keep it this green.

Season 2 of Squid Game starting on Netflix today.

 

[Over The Post]

I'm watching the Beast Games and marvelling at shit like "this is $1000 and there's 1000 of them, how much is that?" and
"What's the Roman numeral for 100?"
"Oooh oooh I'm a teacher, I teach kids Roman numerals"...

Paint by numbers I did for my parents turned out well. I’m addicted to doing these things now that you can convert your own photos into paintings

Bought a new couch.

Had my first nap on it today while watching the cricket.

Was an outstanding nap.

The answer is always yes.

I don't understand how this has anything to do with probability.

Monty Hall problem? First choice had 2 in 6 chance of being right. Second choice has a 3 in 6 chance of being right.

Always swap.

I’m fully addicted to Escape rooms

Luckily I live in the country and can only do them every 3-4 months otherwise I reckon I’d rack up hundreds of dollars every weekend
