Despite prevailing wind beginning to shift (or perhaps because of it) weather has, if anything, gotten worse. Impressive thunderstorms, heat and high humidity may, as has been alleged by ostensibly credible sources who are seemingly sincere, decrease as the "dry" season advances. Too bad Charles (a seminal thinker who provided a proper answer to one of humanity's great questions.. oops, there goes some readership) couldn't have been immortalized by namesaking a neat place like Sydney. Perth or Freemantle might have been OK too.

Celebrated Jan's birthday (it's actually just an anniversary because, as with most freethinkers, birth is a one-time deal.. oops, lost a few more) last night with mates at a restaurant on the end of Stokes Hill Wharf, "Crustaceans". Ironically nearly everyone had steak and no one had lobster or barnacles (rarely served even in seafood restaurants, perhaps because they're more trouble than they're worth being very small, tough and tasting like crap). Fun. We'll enjoy their company while we can as all heading to Indonesia in July. Hope to catch up in Malaysia or Thailand before end of year.

See how unseemly idle hands (the devil's playground) can be? With no work to do (or more precisely not doing it) there is little to fetter the extravagances of convoluted reflection conveyed into words before dissemination into the ether to corrupt sensible discourse. That last sentence is a prime example. The slightest sense of shame should prevent such things.
