Be careful out there


It all in the way you told (or fold) it: We are off to Perth soon. The local paper printed an edition as follows headlining their new PM but when the paper boys (they have such a thing??) folded it over it was a bit of a laugh.

US $$$$$: The NZ dollar continues to rise against the US, now at around 0.75 cents but the Aussie is at 0.99. The US is on the downward spiral and like Rome the citizens don't seem to realise it. They say the US is the only economy that is a war economy in peacetime as they spend more on the Military than the rest of the world combined. Eisenhower warned them against the Military-Industrial complex but the didn't listen.

Music: John Lennon would have been 70 today.
