WE SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT THAT ELECTRIC CAR

 It's very worrying watching the Middle East disaster unfold with the shocking attacks by Hamas and the brutal responses by Israel.

This is only going to get worse with paramilitary and terrorist organisations like Hezbollah being brought into the conflict and with Arab countries and Iran supporting Hamas which will ultimately destroy efforts over the last couple of decades to broker peace accords.

The Palestinian people in Gaza and Israeli citizens are once again under attack. "We advise Palestinians in Gaza to get out" says Netanyahu. Get out to where though? They have nowhere to go.

This latest conflict is likely to have the worst regional and indeed world-wide ramifications since the 1980s. A major war is likely that, if Saudi Arabia  sits back and watches will engulf, well, the Gulf. With the backdrop of the Russia/Ukraine war, Chinese expansionism, the simmering Afghanistan, Syria and Iraq situations and the war in Sudan we are witnessing a perfect storm last seen in the 1930s before WW2. There will be global ramifications with oil shortages just being the tip of the iceberg,

No doubt Robert's priests will be rewriting their sermons for the coming busy weekend trying to find examples of red heifer sightings.

Why heifer sightings?

Red cow. Armageddon. The Apocalypse .... Oh, I forgot you were in the G classes.

The process of bookkeeping involves four basic steps: 1) analysing financial transactions and assigning them to specific accounts; 2) writing original journal entries that credit and debit the appropriate accounts; 3) posting entries to ledger accounts; and 4) adjusting entries at the end of each accounting period.

Carry on.

Ah, thanks! Now I sort of understand. But why do they leave the milk bottles in the sun? I'll ask Mr. Moloney.
