Everyone has a multitude of thoughts running through their heads at any one time. Sometimes it's hard to focus on just one thing. Here is a random selection.
- Three people killed in the current bushfires raging around our State. One was an accident, but the other two fell victim to the flames. Were these deaths preventable? Such a loss.
- Australia's richest man, Kerry Packer, died on Boxing Day. We are now being told that, despite his 7 billion dollar empire, he is going to have a tax payer funded memorial service at the Sydney Opera House. Estimated cost is expected to be in the hundreds of thousands. Meanwhile more than 70 percent of the working population is earning less than the so-called average wage. So typical of the current government.
- Found this article on honour killings in my Web wanderings. A bit of an eye opener.
- Not looking forward to going to work.
- I really need to buckle down to my writing. I'm such a slack tart.

Followed the link to the post on honor killings. Certainly food for thought since the tenor of the article appears to emphasise not merely the fact of honor killings - surely an age old and widespread malpractice of certain cultures - but the timeliness of an increase in such murders and suicides. Will post on this myself later on at http://eaglesplace.blogspot.com with a HT to you.
