However, on this occasion it was pure rage that propelled me forward and sustained my sense of purpose and FIGHT, yes F-I-G-H-T, I was trained for the task – at birth! (full story and 3 comments)

 Fitzy under the whip! posted by Captain, 2009-03-25 23:51:25
Only political fools and the masses believe in conveniences and coincidences, Fitzy; watch your back (Labor and other) daggers are out for you!
While Kevin is conveniently in Washington, Defence Minister, Joel Fitzgibbon, is ‘under the whip’ in more ways than one.

It was fun watching her jump into jaguars driven by old fart execs and other chauffeur driven vehicles – they just couldn’t resist; too fuckin easy, mate! (full story and 2 comments)
