  • Mater’s Mischief #6: This raises some interesting questions

    Will they be checking Vaccination Certificates? Will there be density limits (apart from between their ears)? Will it be considered ‘essential’ and be allowed to proceed amidst any Covid restrictions? Will Dan be the keynote speaker (with so many contenders to choose from in Victoria)? If so, will he make it up the stairs to…

  • What a djoke!

    If it were up to Scott Morrison, or even Daniel Andrews, there is little doubt Novak Djokovic would be allowed to compete in the Australian Open. But we are in the midst of a mania where his presence, even if it presents ZERO risk to anyone else, is intolerable to the voting population so out…

  • Mater’s Musings #48: YOUR risk of dying from Covid-19 – Part 2

    Ok, due to the interest generated from my post yesterday, and the efforts to quantify the ACTUAL risk versus government propaganda, I took a path that is usually an enigma to my professionalism. I extrapolated off some grainy, low fidelity screenshots of government graphs which I found on the two relevant infographics (found here). I…

  • Mater’s Musings #47: YOUR risk of dying from Covid-19

    In its push to get you vaccinated, here we have the Federal Health Department giving YOU a definitive answer on what YOUR risk of dying from Covid-19 is: Where do they get that figure from, I hear you ask. Well, when you follow the link they provide, it takes you to the website of an…

  1. More good news. From the Oz. Queensland’s new Coalition government has moved to repeal Path to Treaty legislation in the first…
