Another book meme. I don't remember who I got this one from, I'm had it half-finished on my desktop for months.

Who saw this in the Sydney Morning Herald yesterday?
Sexless in the city: a gender revolution
JOEL GIBSON
March 12, 2010
THIS Mardi Gras, Norrie received a gift that no other androgynous person in NSW has had before.
The night before the parade, the postman brought a certificate from the Registry of Births, Deaths and Marriages that contained neither the dreaded "M" nor its equally despised cousin, "F".
Instead, it said "sex not specified", making the 48-year-old Sydneysider, who identifies as neuter and uses only a first name, the first in the state to be neither man nor woman in the eyes of the NSW government.

How awesome!

Mar. 13th, 2010 07:24 pmI cleaned up two of my shelves today and found this:
"The Dow Jones is down, and there are rumours he's started drinking again after he was seen fumbling for his car keys and shouting abuse at passers by. The Nikkei is steady and is rumoured to be gay. The Australian Dollar slumped against the Greenback, saying he was his best friend ever and could he give him a lift home. The All Ordinaries closed five minutes early but quickly realised their mistake and opened up again, and the Hang Seng is up against the Yen in the next quarter final."
It was an ad for Martin Molloy, which should give Sydney-siders an idea of how old this is. That show was on the radio when I was in high school!
The weird thing is, I was thinking about this ad a few days ago and couldn't remember how it went. I didn't even remember writing it down. I'm glad I did though.
On the bottom of the page I also scribbled this down:
"In sport, Richmond is back after going down to Geelong. I went down to Geelong once when my car broke down and I had to walk two miles to the nearest petrol station."
Blast from the past for anyone other than me?
