Default Spinning Jenny

Jenny Ward, an unfortunately well-known Sydney anti-cyclist nutbag is at it again. An example of Jenny's previous diatribes:
http://www.users.bigpond.net.au/lbug/canetoads.html

From Todays Age (see below) Think Jennys stupidity requires more than writing letters in response, she needs to have her awareness (politely) broadened. Anyone have a contact for her in Sydney & willing to take her out for a spin on Sydneys streets? Again, politely of course.

The Age: send your letters to: letters@theage.com.au
Fax: +61 (0)3 96012414
Snailmail: 250 Spencer Street, Melbourne 3000

Soup and other Nazis (30th August 2005)
http://www.theage.com.au/letters/index.html

MEAGHAN Wilson-Anastasios (Letters, 29/8), have you not seen the "Soup Nazi" episode of Seinfeld? Jim Schembri has made a legitimate, humorous comment on the superior attitude of some cyclists, who consider their needs above those of their fellow users of public spaces.

Obviously, you have never been subjected to the bully-boy tactics of the lycra louts who infest the footpaths and streets. Either you are very fortunate, or you should get out more.

Better say that this is still a sick Dave masquarading as kathy.
(I have a streak of mastiness that is totally lacking in the Kathy)

A crackdown on the idiot element is indeed overdue. However it seems to
be legal to be an idiot. Thats how come this prat gets published.

If the Dave is masquerading as a Kathy, is he allowed to borrow the OCR as well?

NOT expect him to go for my underwear...

I will go for her underwear anytime I like. But I dont see the point if
she aint wearing it

Oh Kathy home today sick. I did make it to work but thought I should
come back and look after Kathy rather than go home. This is the house of
plague
At home my flatmate being suprisingly understanding, And the cat has
all but disowned me.

For anyone interested the wind at hotham the other day oficially
qualified as a cat 3 cyclone. Seriously


Dave

As in the pressure was below 1000, and .... something else I can't
remember...?

I've got a 2 cat cyclone in my loungeroom. Why do they keep running
into the bike and knocking it over when I am asleep?

1. Because you're asleep?

2. Because they can?

3. Because their felines?

Cats aren't meant to be nice, they're here to punish us for our sins
whether you've actually committed any or were thinking about committing any
or committed some in a previous life and are now living an enlighted
Buddist lifestyle.

But they're never boring.

Cheers

I got told by a Chinese girl that if you look after a cat then in your
next life they will come back as a woman and look after you.
