Oops. Perhaps I made an insensitive comment on my sister's blog. The problem with living several thousand miles away is you lose perspective on people's sense of humor about aging. In my defense though, we were all thinking it. I just said it. Sorry Kath.

The Dutch beat Uruguay today. That means Europe is guaranteed to win its first cup held outside the continent. If Spain manages to beat Germany, the winner will be a nation that's never won before. Fingers crossed!

In 1789, the governor of Australia granted land and some animals to James Ruse in an experiment to see how long it would take him to support himself. Within 15 months he had become self sufficient. The area is still known as Experiment Farm. This is my Experiment Farm to see how long it will take me to support myself by writing.
