A Christmas musing: Dear furry friends,
All the best for the festive season and the New Year. Please read the card I have for you at http://www.jacquielawson.com/preview.asp?cont=1&hdn=0&pv=3274601&path=98301
Cheers,
Your mate Rex
PS Go easy on the cherry cheer and fruit cake. I know from experience that it plays havoc with me, but I still cannot resist a bit of over-indulgence at this time of year.
A Rats in teh Ranks musing: My little canine friend, Veronica Lake, paid close attention when her humans were at the breakfast table this week and overhead them discussing the fact that someone in the Tweed had the hide to suggest to the Regional Australia Committee that east coast river water should be piped into the Murray-Darling Basin. Now the only east coast river currently under discussion is the Clarence River and Ronnie thinks the chappie has a hide seeing that the Clarence Valley stood with the Tweed and Richmond when they resisted their water being nicked a few years back. Ronnie said her mob were also sniggering at the sly mention being made of Charles Dean's love of dams in an email sent to the Committee.
A ponder musing: In the face of yet another parliamentary inquiry into water security, I wonder who it was that appears to have convinced one free local newspaper that the issue of Clarence River water diversion is just a media beat-up by a rival paper? Hmmmmm.......
A Which Bank? musing: There is one local who is frankly confused. His bank first sent him letter apologising for 'accidentally' sending his phone account details to a total stranger, then followed it with a letter asking him to destroy a letter never received which supposedly had contained someone else's account details. Finally it capped off it's strange banking behaviour by giving his name and number to a survey company so that it could conduct a survey on bank customers. Whatever happened to privacy?
A court house musing: Maclean moggies have been indulging in some catty muttering about the Grafton legal eagle who stubbornly brought a high profile on-going prosecution to a dead halt because he wanted to attend the Jacaranda Festival's Hazy Thursday and wasn't going to accommodate the court, briefs or defendants and their families who may have wished otherwise.
A they should be sacked musing: Rexie tells me that his petit ami Clouseau was saying that although he's endowed with ears that are close to the ground, sometimes the information picked up isn't fit for dogs' ears, let alone humans. In his recent travels around the Northern Rivers he heard that at a licensed sports club which has CCTV cameras a number of blokes (who are club members and/or visitors and perhaps even staff) have availed themselves of the club's camera facilities to observe at least one female member of staff getting changed in the women's rooms. Gee, those blokes are sick! sick! sick!
A bouquet musing: Rex the German Shepherd sent me this email about a very pleased neighbour............ A bouquet for HP (Hewlett-Packard - Australia) and its authorised repairer North Coast Information Technology in Ballina. A bloke I know created a bit of a problem for himself when he inflicted some minor damage on his HP notebook. With the notebook still under warranty, the bloke decided it was best to contact HP and obtain advice about how he should go about having the damage rectified. HP told him he'd need to have an HP authorised repairer do the job - the nearest repairers are in Ballina and Coffs Harbour - so he opted to take it to Ballina, thinking the job would cost him an arm and a leg. A couple of days later North Coast Information Technology rang the bloke and told him the notebook was repaired. The bloke asked how much the service would cost him. NCIT replied, "No charge, it wasn't a very difficult or time-consuming job to fix your notebook." Three cheers for NCIT! PS. NCIT staff members Colin, Jo and a technician, whose name escaped the bloke, are to be commended for their 5-star service. 
Boy
