''I want to stay as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all kinds of things you can't see from the center.''

Cousins go by,
That merry-making laughter in their eye,

Does anybody else have this feeling of standing in a tsunami of cash, and yet remaining strangely dry? Too young for Labor's Medicare Gold; too old for the Liberals' child payment. Attractive bribe, vote, on offer ]
