Quotes from the near future
Perry de Havilland (London)  Humour

Peter Briffa is absolutely smoking tonight... and I hope he puts me in touch with his supplier! He has a series of 'future quotes' from a veritable constellation of leading Tranzis, such as this gem from Germaine Greer:

This is not a war about oil. This is not a war about blood. Forget all that male, patriarchal propaganda. No, this is a war, above all, about the penis. The penis of war versus the vagina of compassion. Not since I was sitting on the dunny on Bondi Beach, and a whole team of beer-swilling Collingwood footballers came in and gang-raped my great grandmother have I witnessed such bloodlust.

Outstanding.

I dunno... for me, it's always been about the vagina...

Also entirely impossible. Bondi Beach is in Sydney. The Collingwood football team are from Melbourne. And "never the twain shall meet" would be an understatement.

If its all about genetals, then why is it the ANTI-war folks who are getting naked for the cause?
