Crikey Lists

Been wasting my time reading some interesting lists compiled by the crew at Crikey. This list shows that my old uni loves giving out honorary doctorates though Bradman declined one:

Griffith Uni wrote to the Don and offered one to him for services to cricket and he wrote back declining saying that the Uni should give his to Menzies instead.

Some brilliant (or appalling) examples of cheque-book journalism listed here. It's good to see that Natasha Ryan, the Bundaberg slapper who hid out in her boyfriend's cupboard for a couple of years as police searched for the "missing" teenager, was handsomely rewarded for her efforts to the tune of $250 000.

If you're interested in knowing where all Australia's mineral wealth is going, check this list out. And finally the rich Aussies list. Frightening how much money some people have. I seriously have to change fields (the CEO of Singapore Airlines has a PhD in probability from Aushtraya).

Here's to procrastination. Enjoy your weekend.
