"F.I.S.K.A.L"

Just when you think you have seen it all... you'll be hit with another surprise!

Steve Fielding, Victoria's senator and Federal parliamentary leader of the Family First Party made a huge blunder when speaking to journalists outside parliament this morning. He referred to "physical and monetary policy". The journo asked if he meant "fiscal", he then went all gung-ho and spell it out, F I S K A L.

What an embarrassment for a high profile public figure!

The take away point? Think before you speak. A simple logic ministers all over the world don't seem to understand.

Melbourne's unpredictable weather

Now this is something you don't see everyday in Melbourne.

Overnight, Melbourne was blanketed with hail, somewhat looking like snow. It was so heavy that it actually woke me up. Morning frost is the forecast until next Wednesday. One more reason for me to snack away!

Credit crunch? Think again!

For a number of months now, credit crisis, recession, massive cuts in jobs have been a hot topic in both local and international newspapers. They are painting a very bleak outlook for 09. I for one believe all of them got it very wrong!

I reckon we have more cash than ever to spend. Credit availability is overflowing in the market. No one is thinking twice in buying anything, not to mention if they need it in the first place.

Don't trust me? I have solid evidence!

Original price was $179.50, "reduced" to $901!

There is a new "sale" in town!
