Wat back in June 99

Thursday the 10th of June. Yes, time really is flying. You may be interested to know that I have been to the bank to see if I can have a home loan. Indeed I can! All I need is a $10,000 deposit. So time to tighten the old belt and save. Should have by the end of the year, which is something to look forward to. To counter balance that I may be out of a job next year. Telstra looks to be pushing almost everything to private contractors. I have heard repeatedly from all sorts of people that they don't want that to happen, just as they don't want government department sold off. It has been proven not to work overseas time and time again. It seems the government want to prove that it doesn't work here either.
I am not a political sort of person, I don't like any of them to be honest. I a bit of an anarchist, in a perfect world people would know what has to done and it would be done. But then I suspect in a perfect world people would not exist in the first place. I read recently that humanity is a rogue species. I think that could well be true. We are the only creature on earth that would improve the place by its absence. {June 10 '99}

Well, it's been a seems to have been a long time since I have been here. I have managed to keep on an even keel, more or less. I have been visiting Chat City quite a lot lately, talking mainly privately to one particular couple in Brisbane, hi Sis and Tom. I had heard how people can make good friends though chat rooms and now I have proved it. Perhaps the fact that you don't actually meet people takes the stress away, enabling you to relax more and be yourself. I think it is safe to assume that meeting people face to face sets up automatic preconceived ideas, even if you are not aware of it.
