The UP side of Anger

Fairytale marriages are just that .This no holes barred comedy is really good value because it doesn't preach, it just reminds us of how to deal with the dragons in our lives and learn to love again and more deeply.
Teenage Daughter feeling left out, unloved and frustrated with her mothers high expectations and mums own personal limits in full view of everyone  - who wouldn't feel frustrated !!!!!
after honestly putting this to her mum  " you used to be so sweet " ( and successful)  she says "you don't seem to love me " ( this girl tries really hard and mum is " never happy " with her efforts ( bit like sin is to God  )
Implication " am I hopeless?" Cause i am sure feeling it right now

No she says " your just like a lot of people in my life at the moment .You need to listen MORE CLOSELY to what I say !
Point taken
Don't let the determinists and faith deniers kill your appreciation of the need to deal with anger and the demons within.  Strong women and strong men are those who use nature as a base , not as a bottom line, or worse an excuse. The DJ

Talk about an embarassing parent - a bloody mary driven tirade at a restuarant .
Take your teenagers along for the ride !!!!

YES YES Prime Minister

 Ya GOTTA see YES PRIME MINISTER because you might never see it on the ABC. 25 years after Anthony Jay ( who witnessed the events) and Jonathon Lyn wrote the first series , these blokes have done it all again . Heartwrenchingly funny and brilliantly honest --all with a touch of Faulty Towers ( in the Prime Minister at some of his most harrowing moments) . A masterstoke because it tells the truth, tests belief and bares all about the extreme poverty and wastefulness of reactionary politics.
You may not like it, but it portrays patterned predictability that is unworthy of thinking people and our own public broadcasters and "public servants ". Only the PM and Bernard come out heroes in a play that should rock the nation - a morality play for our day . See what they are saying about it in the blue room
