My favouite book

When i was at school they had a 'compulsory' 10 minute reading class before the usual 9am lessons started. You were free to bring any book but everyone had to be silent and read for that 10 minutes.

I chose a particularly large book that took the best part of the year to finish. It was a book about God and Satan. About good and evil. About faith. About prophets and devils. About the end of the world. About holy pilgrimages and our failings as humans.

And now it would appear its being made into a movie:

Mother Nature?

This monster is about to hit Queensland. All but a few weeks after a 1 in 100 year flood hit the region hard.



When experts from the weather bureau say "Cyclone Yasi 'more life threatening than any experienced in recent generations" - there's some cause for alarm.

You have my prayers Maroons.
