Spring has sprung, the grass is riz, I wonder where the birdie is?

Where are the RiotACT birdies going to be this lovely spring weekend? The sun is out, the wind is down, love is in the air and it’s our only long weekend of second semester. What’s the best place to celebrate?

Yep, today is St. Michael’s day (patron saint of wallopers) and National Police Rememberance Day. Also the opening of the said memorial next to the lake. Been working down there all day, a very nice setup

That informal family day would be tomorrow, incidentally. It would be nice if I ever got around to re-reading my posts before posting ’em…

The thing for the police would probably be opening the Police Memorial (which is the new-ish area down near Lake Burley Griffin, sorta near the Carillion – there’s a little turn-off of Kings Avenue Bridge that leads to it).

The dedication ceremony’s happening today, and there’s an informal Family Day for the family, friends and associates of those named on the memorial (i.e. those killed in the line of duty).

Celebrity criminal On The Run tours with little red paintball guns so you can have a DIY reenactment and pose for photos with real police officers for 2 dollars a pop?

Vending machines with portions of his blood stained garments so we can ‘smell the justice’?

you know I could go well below the line with that Master Evil, given my mood but I won’t 🙂

“when they run out of their recovered marijuana stash and need money for more? (for the humourless that is a joke”

Maybe they could auction DJ’s shottie? That’d bring in a bit of cash.

anyone know when/where police auction off all their recovered ‘stolen’ gear ?

Going down the coast and having a party for my son’s 7th birthday.

Apparently there’s something on for the police – heard it on the radio. vg might know more.

foxtel played that just episode after he died! Coincidence???

The Rostovs, The Suits and The Ashburys tonight at the Pot Belly Bar, and I have a free pass for the evening, HOORAY!!!!

I believe the Hall markets are on on Sunday…

I prefer index finger.

just keep your thumb out of its anus and you’ll be fine.

heading down the coast to play with the fishes – and having a new found respect and caution for bull rays

Karnivool tonight at the ANU… one of the best bands in australia at the moment..

I here the running of the sheep is on at Boroowa on Sun around high noon!

Some say the bird is on the wing, I say the wing is on the bird…

Brumbies/Reds Friday night. Reds are staying in Bowral, so travel sickness will not help their cause.

Beat the retreat is on at the War Memorial parade ground tonight and Saturday, possibly at 6pm (I’m told the ADFA parade ground is being dug up).

Also Floriade continues on its merry way. Early in the morning is the best time to avoid crowds.
