I used to get it driving, just going someplace, looking out the window, some great song playing away behind. I get it from the kids sometimes now, but to be honest, I can't remember the last time. I'm looking for things that flow at the moment. Doesn't matter what it is, it just has to move easily.

The softness of his thick fur is incredible.<br /><br />Did David Malouf mention the way humans are connected? We are only as strong as the weakest link, so to speak. Japan, the Middle East and the local suburb of Glenorchy trouble me - I think it's part of being a compassionate member of the human race.
