Got this in the post the other day… and it made me wonder just what sort of idiots these scam artists think we are? Just *who* in their right minds would respond to a letter that ‘out of the blue’ tells you you suddenly own $800,000? Just *who* in their right minds would send off … More Nigerian scam artists.
Well ok this wordpress.com version of blog is still here tho not being used right now. The main blog is still where it always was at Opinion Australia so feel free to drop by and say hi if you’ve a mind to?

The Powerball jackpot which eventually accumulated to AU$58,000,000 has been won… by a single person… but sadly *not* by anyone in New South Wales so it looks as if the wife still has to go to work today. Still, there’s always next week to look forward to. 🙂

Alan is still held prisoner by militants in in Gaza since March 12th. We’re adding the ‘widget’ to the blog for people to be able to follow the progress of efforts to secure his release. We trust he *is* still alive and will be released soon. His only ‘crime’ after all was to try to … More Alan Johnston
We’d all like some… me especially. As regulars know last year I tried to sort out some online finance only to have the bank account hacked twice and lost all the profits… which sort of put me off it.

It would appear that the wife will be leaving Qantas at just the right time. Moves are afoot that might see a onsortium of Australian and foreign venture capitalists to purchase up to 49% of the company giving them effective control.
