APEC Continues

Just dabbling a little into the real-world for a bit because the constant hum of the helicopters is driving me nuts. Basically, there are 21 world leaders here in Sydney for the APEC summit and things are a little crazy. The city is under its biggest security lockdown in all of its history. Half the city has been blocked off with concrete and fencing, and we're spending something to the tune of $30million dollars a day in security. There a snipers on key buildings' roofs and Friday was declared a public holiday.

Anyway...despite all of this...our famour comedians, the Chasers...managed to get 10m away from Bush's hotel with the dodgiest getup and the crappiest security passes. So much for security.

And for all this...Bush in his speech today...called us Austrians, called the summit OPEC, and got lost getting off the stage.



The fake security passes that worked.
