The obsession of our time. This one comes with a free rant:
Not sure if this is worth much as a photograph (but please critique it if you're so inclined). It does, however, come with a free rant! That's right, not a stinking 4cents/litre disount, but absolutely free! free! free!
The rant is this: people seem to have gone stark raving insane on the topic of petrol prices. So petrol is more expensive than it used to be. For some people, on very tight budgets, I guess that might hurt and to some extent the price of fuel has an impact on the price of everything - especially if, as in Australia, you refuse to invest in rail infrastructure and move everything by road.
Nonetheless, we have people whinging at every turn about how expensive it is to fill their tanks, writing letters to newspapers, screaming on radio talk-back shows and the like. The Government Must Do Something!!! (as if the government doing anything about anything doesn't usually make it worse).
And our wonderful politicians are coming to the party (or pretending to). To whit, here in Oz, they've decided to spend a billion-or-so dollars (that's billion with a B in case you missed it the first time) handing out grants to convert cars from petrol to LPG. Great. The only real difference (aside from no longer having any boot space) is that LPG is taxed at a lower rate than petrol. You can guaran-bloody-tee that if this eats into revenues they'll just raise the tax on LPG. (They won't ever lower the tax on petrol, now will they?) Thus spending 1-bleedin'-billion dollars of our money to accomplish nothing except making sure you can't fit your suitcase in your car.
That's not what I call a productive investment.
And still people complain. Dad set this out for a mutual friend recently: she was quite bitter about the increased cost of filling her car, and said so to all who were there at the regular coffee morning. So Dad ran some numbers: how many kilometers do you do per year? 15,000. Call that 300/week in rough numbers. How many litres/100km do you get? 12. OK, 25 litres/week. How much has petrol gone up this year? Roughly 20 cents/litre. $5/week. I've solved your problem! Cut out one sit-down cappuccino per week and you've paid for your increased petrol bill. (Or one schooner of beer at the pub, if you're more inclined to do that.)
You'd think this would put The Greatest Problem Of Our Time in some kind of perspective. But it doesn't seem to.

Listen up I'm gonna' tell you bit about myself
I got a situation, ain't concerning nobody else
Just you and what you can do for me
(Ooh)
I had the life of ordinary, I spat it out
Now my condition's kind of scary, I need you now
Not love but I need something else
So here's my confession
This time, this time,
Don't just want you to love me
I want to be your obsession
This time, this time,
Want my name on the Marquee
I want you (To want me)
I want you (To need me)
I want you
To hear my confession
I want to be your Obsession
(Whoa)
I'll fixate you, till you never let me go
So I can feed your addiction in the stereo,
I could be, just your type of high
(I can give what you like)
Your talkin' bout' the narcissism that's in Hollywood,
I'm lovin' myself, but what I need's for you to feel good (let go)
Let the music just take control
So here's my confession
This time, this time
Don't just want you to love me
I want to be your obsession
This time, this time
Want my name on the Marquee (Whoa)
I want you (To want me)
I want you (To need me)
I want you
To hear my confession
I want to be your Obsession
I want to be your Obsession
