Vintage T-Shirt: Ax Men Become Conservationists

Has deforestation taken a back seat on the social agenda in recent years, amid the wars, financial crises and anything else the media has a momentary fixation on?

I remember the good old days when it wasn't uncommon to flick on the evening news and see a couple of dishevelled protesters strapped to the base of a 40 ft Pine. I'd watch eagerly, hoping for some confrontation. In the eyes of their supporters, they were martyrs. To their critics, they were ferals.

I suppose the topic is as much at the forefront today as it ever has been, only now it's discussed in the broader context of climate change. Whilst logging per se hasn't been on my radar for a while now, I take comfort in the knowledge that the likes of Greenpeace and The Wilderness Society continue to fight for a tree's rights!

The Reformed Loggers Society is a support group for former ax men. Though they live with the sap on their hands of scores of tree fatalities, there is a hope.

1981: A Good Year for Arcade Games

Seems like only yesterday I was on holidays with mi dear old folks, forgoing the surf, sand and fun for fun of a different kind - you see, there was a war to be won, and the battleground was in the games room of the Pacific Caravan Park.

Leave the table tennis and billiards to the losers, all the cool kids were saving their hard earned, bobba-jobed 20 cent pieces for combat. And there could be only one winner... only one could claim the the top ranked position in the Galaga virtual hall of fame.

Alas, if only I had the uniform, it could have been me... what was once modern is now the classic vintage t-shirt.
