Submarines, Roll Up!

If I was going to be a Trans-Morpher, android incognito, I’d be the submarine. When I was a kid and everyone at my school watched the show, we’d all come in the day after each episode and discuss it. My mates would be all like ‘did you see that fight on the highway with the …

Plants: Our Children

Oh, I’m weird am I? Is it weird to want to take care of the environment at all costs? Well, you know, I don’t even care. I’m a proud eco-warrior, and if people find it slightly strange that I’ve sewn a special pouch into my slouch bag that means I can keep a pot plant …

Gateway Gripes

I’m not sure about our front door. I don’t trust it for security, for starters – it’s so old that it looks like you could kick it in with ease. Actually, I think I could kick it in, and that’s saying something. I’m just waiting for the day that someone decides to try it. Then …

Unleash the Lemurs

Lemurs. For real, lemurs. It’s time to face the facts that lemurs don’t belong in captivity; they should be running wild in their natural habitat. And that natural habitat…is an urban jungle. Man, just think about how cool that would be! We set them all free and they become the new magpies, just everywhere at …

Surfing the Cycles

Winter is… not coming. I mean, it’s mid-Autumn and I’m still getting around in a tank top and board shorts. What’s up with that? I want to say it’s global warming, but deep down I know it’s actually the beach gods repaying me for my dedication to the waves over the years.   The downside, as …
