mymob.au is running a "web app".

It's been very rewarding to pick up old skills (along with old habits) to develop an interface whereby bills in parliament can be presented to punters and they get to aye or nay them.

I've spent a ridiculous amount of time building it. I've pushed it out to a few and got the attention of some tertiary course providers looking for project material for their students.

Today I zoom with one such group!

Meanwhile, we have every reason to anticipate an independent candidate winning the seat in this area in the 2025 election. Their platform includes "doing democracy differently". This has been my theme and I think I did get some of the idea across to these people in 2022.

de soto

 Funny how things happen. Not just shit.

Confluence - flow together....

oh gosh

How to stitch all these threads - weave.

Anyway, the meat in this sandwich must be apology - the nature and form thereof.

I am distracted right now but I'll be back.

Here goes: I had promised to try to get help to understand why, as a parent of a troubled adult child, I fail to understand the origin of my progeny's trouble. Quite a task!

It turns out that the best way to restore family relations is to heal myself! What a surprise! I am being directed back 10 years when I became blissfully aware that we all come from and are headed to the same place.

Anyway, Shelto gave me a nudge and that all came rushing back just at a time when I was focusing on the stuff of now which has been, and is, quite diverting.

At this time my recall is suggesting that I had always believed that the deSoto belonged to Linda and that she had left it in my care to try to sell it. Perhaps I should try to corroborate that legend.

I recall clearly a day at Coffs Jetty when there was a gang of "classic car" club tyoe people and I tuned up with a for sale sticker on the dusty deSoto only to be frowned upon.

If all that is wrong and it was Shelto's car, then maybe I owe an apology. I googled apology and discovered that a good way to cmpose such a thing is to imagine what I would like to receive in apology from someone who had trespassed against me. I am struggling to think of someone who owes me an apology. I guess that means I've been more of a trespasser than a tresspassee.

But I guess it would be along the lines of "Oh shit! Sorry".
