Modern Day Magi

Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man. For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil. - Ecclesiastes 12:13-14............. Now the Bereans were of more noble character than the Thessalonians, for they received the message with great eagerness and examined the Scriptures every day to see if what Paul said was true. - Acts 17:11

Brisbane, Australia - a city of BLOODY IDIOTS!

Here in Australia the Roads and Traffic authorities have used a popular Australian phrase in their anti-drink-driving campaigns.

"If you Drink then Drive, you're a Bloody Idiot!"

Its fairly logical, Drunk drivers kill people, make quadroplegics out of able bodied people, they smash vehicles, and drive dangerously.
Don't do it!

In Brisbane, Australia (where I live) this weekend just gone there was a major offencive by police on people D.U.I (Driving Under the Influence of alchohol or drugs) in one suberb alone "the Valley" a very popular venue for live bands and night clubs, 375 people were arrested for D.U.I. and 17 for driving without a licence.

Wake up Brisbane, we are not all Bloody Idiots, surely?

    The head of St Vincents Hospital in Sydney said that illicit drugs don't even appear on the radar compared to Alcohol related deaths.

    Perhaps swearing is an epidemic too :)

    pb - being an australian yourself you should know that this word is not a swear word! But I guess to other cultures it could be - considering all the hype over a current tourism advertisment.
