DEAR READER AREN’T YOU JUST SICK AND TIRED OF THE MALCOLM ABBOTT AND TONY TURNBULL SHOW? It just goes on and on. We deserve better than this! Surely there can’t be a more devastating index of jadedness, a more abject example of capitulation to the entropy of it all. We get so thoroughly tired of the mind numbing precitablilty of it all we can’t even be bothered releasing the caps key. It’s what happens when you get ‘Ideas Boom Overload’. Is there a cure for three word slogans? What happens after prolonged exposure to ‘IBO’?

Glad then, that Beau has sent us this visual diary of what happened in New Orleans when he stepped outside with camera in hand. Not since LIFE was made lifeless has the camera captured Life. It’s a resuscitation we all need. The soul of humanity.

Back to the same-ol tomorrow then.

And now a few words from Beau: (in his very own words)

‘I got a new camera last week because I am tired of things being out of focus when I want them to be IN focus, and there have been

moments here in the USofA that I’d like to put on the wall of our already overcrowded home for memory’s sake, but what I’ve ended up with has been altogether too small for the purpose.

and Noo Awlins is of course PARTY TOWN and we all so happy (and slim) ……

But why is it that, on the whole, black faces are more interesting than white ones? Am I just being patronising about this? Is it just would-be liberal white man’s projection? Black kiddies are just sooooo cute (before they turn into THUGS and start dealing meth and carrying firearms). This one was concentrating hard, playing hangman with Elli. The game would be more up to date if it were called “lethal injection”:

Considerations of this sort keep Beauregard ruminating rather than pontificating at present’.
