That is correct. The weapon of choice for professors and men in middle management everywhere is now officially the top of the fear list. Last night a person was spotted shining a laser at an aircraft from a police helicopter. The helicopter FLEW TO HIS HOUSE, LANDED AND ARRESTED HIM. Now, stop me if I’m wrong. Perhaps laser pointers are a threat to life as we know it. Perhaps a big group people are planning to simultaneously use their lasers to point at the moon at the same time with the intent of blowing the moon up. Perhaps laser pointers are, in fact, Muslim. I’m just saying that I find it a little ridiculous that a helicopter would land to arrest a guy for shining a red dot at a plane. I thought helicopters were used in important police business, like chasing O.J Simpson or catching Colombian drug lords or arresting The Veronicas for raping my ears with their music. Priorities people. Get some.

Well ranted Muff. You have inspired a rant from me. For we now have a new fear that stalks the good citizens ofthe State of New South Wales, a fear so insidious,so paralysing in the apprehension of random violence that our parliament has proscribed this one great threat to peace, prosperity and the Awstralian way. No not Bikie Gangs. But black felt marker pens. Yes that's right. Possession of a pelican permanent pen without probable cause now attracts up to 3 months gaol and police have powers to search those suspected. University lecturers, artists and other whiteboard communicators should be afraid. Very afraid. the war on graffiti demands we sacrifice that one great liberty: the Right to Bear Artliners (TM). Taggers and Terrorists beware. This follows hard on the heels of the imprisonment of a 16 year old girl for tagging Hyde Park Cafe not once, not twice but thrice! One month for each tag. Why not a flogging too for doing shit tags? In your words Muff: Priorities parliament. Get some.
But: over & out.
