Well, there you go then!

Well, that's what I reckon!
Well, that's what I reckon!
... and I am back! Here I am, eighteen months down the track and I am riled. Despite my best intentions I have neglected my undertaking to blog!
Where was I? I came back aboard for a reason - just have to recall what it was. I am primed with a number of "dark and stormies" (for the unitiated, that is copious amounts of Bundy with lashings of ginger beer - good quality stuff - Cascade in fact!). I've been watching the news, on Channel 10 of all places. It is a channel that I don't have a lot of respect for but by accident I happened to be tuned in this afternoon. I must watch it occasionally because I recognised their weatherman. Is his name Ron ....? He is magic. Someone just has to grab him and put him up on a reputable TV channel. He is really entertaining! No, I am not his brother, nor his father, nor even his cousin. I don't even know his name, but I recognise a talent and he is one just waiting to be plucked. Get your finger out Channel 9! ... or the ABC!

An update!
I decided to visit and add something to my deplorable attempt to date!
I was considering an incident which seriously recently affected our friend's family. The incident related to a practice which our friend believes is more prevalent in Australia than it is in other parts of the World and which has inadequate legislative barriers in Australia to its perpetuation. I refer to the use of mercury as a preservative for the purpose of extending the shelf-life of certain vaccines used in the treatment of autism (and perhaps other vaccines for all I know!!!).
I hadn't developed my thoughts sufficiently to deal with the topic and my mind wandered to other things. In the process curiosity lead me to another blogg-site. I was impressed by the site and scanned it cursorily. I was absolutely amazed to find references to the very matter that had engaged my attention only minutes before, notwithstanding that I had not heard of the problem except the incident affecting the grandchildren of our friends. And, I might add, the subject had been treated much more thoroughly than I could possibly have done, and with authoritative links to boot.
My mind is still spinning. If I have got your attention - go to mikemcclary.blogspot.com and check it out. Also explore the relevant links! Good work Mike!

A little more about me!
Well, basically I'm tired, like in "slack". Evidence, the fact that it has been two weeks now since I started this blog and I haven't written a word. Also inclined to be lazy, averse to solid research. More inclined to just "reckon" so my words should not be taken at face value but more as a jogger to hopefully strike a chord with like-minded, but not so lazy, people. I detest reports, or news stories, which raise more questions than they answer and I am inclined to draw attention to these. Don't waste my time and yours by chastising me for these basic flaws - too late to teach an old dog new tricks.
Over and out!
