on the nose, by any other name

* apparently there was a media struggle here on the corby case. apparently Packer had all the rights and blew the case way out of proportion (ive basically ignored the story), and apparently it was murdoch who was trying to give the story a bit more balance. anyway, apparently there was a 'biological weapon' or some such was sent to the indo embassy in canberra. im pretty sure it isnt any more biological than a bachelors kitchen - but the response has been pretty funny. and i offer a $50 to the first journo who dares call it terrorism.

if Packer starts a war with indonesia, who would win? the public here is apparently in a frenzy. and murdoch is defending indonesia - he has a sordid past with these folk, including a very odd murdoch story about a literal, physical sabotage of all military communications channels between oz and indo. i dont pretend to understand.
