Dude, that's awesome. I'm so proud of Australia right now!

having worked for the previous Labor Government once upon a time I'm stoked to see them back in power after 11 years of the Tories. it's almost enough to make this Aussie want to go back :)

Awesome! Midnight Oil was my first concert. My sister took me and we saw them several times including the last in NYC a few years back before Peter went political full-time. The best big gangly dancing guy ever! I'll have to watch the show they did on a flat bed in front of exxon's offices again. At some point he says something about coming out of your office with its window that never opens to stand under a tree and understand what the arguement is about! Word.

This is truly awesome! Do you think Michael Stipe will get any ideas? How could he possibly hang out so much with Bono and Garrett and not think about at least being Mayor of Athens, GA?

I bet Thom Yorke could be elected King of England right about now.
