The world's most famous seagull, Jonathan Livingston Seagull ,has been flying over North Queensland spreading the powerful message for Australians to be tough-minded about the bushfires and get rid of the small-minded flock of buzzards endangering the nation and the planet through their blind stance against climate change .
The seagull was named after test pilot John H. Livingston, employed by the Waco Aircraft Company , who died of a heart attack at the age of 76 after flying an aerobatic home-built Pitts Special .
The book Jonathan Livingston Seagull began as a series of short stories in Flight magazine in the l960s and developed into a fable in novella form by Richard Bach , illustrated by Russell Munson . It became a best seller , made into a film .
Taken to another plane , Jonathan was exposed to the teachings of the wisest gull, named Chiang , and was empowered to fly anywhere in the world , inspire gulls outlawed on Earth for non conformity .
A gutsy 75 year old woman, concerned about the future of the planet and children , protesting about the proposed Adani coalmine, caused a flap recently when she chained herself outside the Adani office in Townsville and was charged with obstruction after police cut her free . In the Townsville Bulletin's poorly laid out text the editor section, much used by rednecks , boofheads and drones , repetitive ones obviously writing from the same guide sheet , it was said the woman should go back to Brisbane and do something useful with her life .
Over Norwegian sardines on toast , Jonathan Seagull told our Shipping Reporter , in Molly Malone's Irish Pub, he intends pecking out the eyes of the person who posted this jibe under the name Kim , who sounded as if she was from the Kath and Kim show . If there is one thing Murdoch media loves , from Darwin to Sydney, it is having a go at them thar bloody southerners . It strikes a real accord in Queensland, where bone-headed Joh-thinking still holds sway in certain backwaters and is force fed by the Murdoch blats, which fan division and the flames of discontent.
The Bulletin reported that Adani had been "slapped" with a $20,000 fine for " a land clearing error " at its Carmichael mine . The paper also recently ran a report saying some right wing pollie was "standing tall " supporting Adani, etc. Presumably anyone against , seagulls included , lacks backbone , is a limp midget.
