Creativity is connecting ideas from different fields and applying them to enrich life. Business ICT. Views are my own (unless I stole them).

@For_Film_Fans Apparently they had to redesign the Millennium Falcon, as the early concepts had a cockpit that looked like the Eagle Transporters cockpit from Space 1999. That was from a Disney+ series on ILM and their work in Star Wars.

@eric_ernie_col No mention that he was a Bevin Boy - drafted / forced to work down coal mines in WW2, that gave many heart problems in later life. Amazing that he could come out of such hardship with such talent and humour.

@LemonLymancom Leo knew, but only revealed the answer when asked. The smartest people in the room don’t need to prove it all the time.

Billionaires who aren't elected shouldn't own Australian Senators.

NATO IS NEVER THERE WHEN WE NEED THEM. TRUMP WANTED TO STEAL GREENLAND, DID NATO HELP? NO! TRUMP WANTED TO WIPE OUT AN ENTIRE CIVILIZATION, DID NATO HELP? NO! TRUMP DECLARED WAR ON BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN, DID NATO HELP? NO!

IF NATO DOESN'T PAY ITS SHARE FOR THE BALLROOM, IT'S OVER.

@PhillipAdams_1 Of all your columns, the one I remember the most was a very modernist view on why Australia didn't need a flag, let alone one which features a foreign nation. You stated that every time you saw a flagpole without a flag, you would think of Australia. Quite timely.

ABC’s John Lyons has fired back at Donald Trump’s “absurd notion” that asking legitimate questions could damage relations b/w the US & Australia
“If our job as journalists is to hold truth to power, then surely asking legitimate questions politely…should be acceptable”🔥💯#Abc

@D_Melissa2 I prioritise my grocery list based on the different locations for shopping at IGA, Aldi or Coles. It’s not that hard, and saves backtracking. 🤷‍♂️

@MayneReport @AlanKohler An excellent conversation with @JEChalmers. Yes the election is coming but this conversation covered a lot of short and long term issues. Please do it again in a years or so. Also great having the 3 amigos of the Money Cafe around the one table.

How does democracy make you feel, actually? Does it get you in the mood? Or is it kinda complicated?

We want to set you up on a Date with Democracy... what are you doing during Enlighten this year? Stay tuned for more: https://t.co/DpnS0gsDTK @EventsACT

@A1GOY As a marketer I would ask "What aspect of the current Jaguar brand was holding them back?" Most rebranding case studies show companies blowing away valuable capital (liquid and intellectual) only to end up insolvent. Was this just a case of adding to someone's Linkedin profile?

[Alex Goy @A1GOY]

Excellent

It speaks volumes that European safety officials are scrambling to keep gigantic American SUVs and trucks out of Europe because they pose unacceptable danger to those walking and biking.

Americans don't realize how deadly our cars really are.
