1) Feds accept Peak Oil
In a blow to those who deny the theory of Peak Oil, a Senate committee looking into the future of oil and its impact on Australia has announced in its interim report that it accepts Peak Oil as highly likely within about 20 years and that we should get off our arses and do something about it. Of course, this is a blow to “charlatans” like Mangled Douglas who quotes from the world’s dodgiest looking website to prove that oil isn’t a fossil fuel after all, and that Steve Bracks and The Age (et al.) are responsible for a worldwide ruse:

The Gas Resources Corporation explains why oil is produced cehmically, deep below the mantle in abundance, and is not a ‘fossil fuel’. Indeed, the G.R.C. only illminates what, when carefully considered, stands as nothing less than dum beleif in magic, oil is a product of fossils.

2) Steve Irwin’s death huge around world
Just check out The Guardian’s top stories last week:

Bloody Brits letting a bit of cricket get ahead of a True Aussie Bloke.

3) Teflon Pete slides it in
In a campaign effort that will be immortalised in political studies textbooks (what not to do), the National/ Liberal coalition actually managed to lose more seats in yesterday’s election to a widely disliked and distrusted Queensland Labor party led by Peter Beattie. After this clear indication that the coalition’s appeal for a sympathy vote backfired, The Editor has now given up all hope and expects the same reaction in GrodsCageFight voting.

4) US Senate finds no link between Osama and Saddam
No shit.
