      This week, we’re going to ‘do that Santa thing’ and find out who’s really naughty or nice. So, for something a little different, the questions can be applied to one of two subjects.     If you’re feeling naughty , apply the five questions to “Sexual Favours”   If you’re feeling nice (or perhaps shy, awww, so sweet !), apply them to “Christmas Gifts”   (If you’re feeling something in-between,...

  Okay, so we don't have 'Turkey Day' in Australia, but in honour of your fine tradition, I thought we could give thanks to our fellow bloggers.   There are members of this community - some well known, some not so well-known, some established 'regulars', some less prolific posters - who deserve to be thanked for their efforts in making JU a nicer place to be.   So, feel free to name any blogger who has inspired you in any way, and give them a big 'thankyou' ...

  Nobody in the world today seems to like themselves enough. We’re all so concerned with belting ourselves over the head with our failures and shortcomings that we don’t have any time to reflect on the good we do. Compare yourself and your activities today to the activities of the persons on your evening news bulletin tonight. Chances are you didn’t shoot up a bunch of people ‘cause the store ran out of your favourite snack. It’s unlikely that you mugged a little old lady...

  This week, we’re going to move to another planet and begin a JU master-race.   For the sake of the exercise, we can assume that: (a) our families, partners, and pets are with us (without needing to be listed), and, (  we have adequate wildlife, plantlife, water, fuel, food, soil, light, power and shelter.   Make your Martian migration list here.

  This week, you can take 5 'things' from anywhere in the world and make them your own. T hey must be actual 'things' and not money or spirituality-related 'issues'. (Although you can ask for thing/s you want to on-sell). You can have a building. You can have a person. You can even have a country if you like. Whatever you want that laws, or money, or logistics have so far made impossible, it's now yours. S o, what in the world will you choose...

  This week, we're going back to school. *Sigh*. Like it or hate it (or, in my case, utterly despise it), we’ve all been there. No matter who we ultimately turned out to be, our young years were all the same: full of crushes, awkward moments, and events both momentous and minor that began to shape the adult we would become. So, were your schooldays filled with cheerful, childish, laughter, uneventful education and sugar-sweet dreams of the future ? ... or were you a heinou...

It's confession time, people . This week we're going to dig deep into the dark, dingy litle recesses of your brain, to uncover the scary, sordid, salicious little secrets that you keep tucked away. Well, something like that, anyway. If you're as old and boring as I am, I suggest you make something up. (Actually, my answer to all five this week is yes !.) Have you ever ... 1/ Been arrested ? 2/ Punched anyone ? 3/ 'Lost it' in public...

I am horrified to admit, gentle reader, that, last night, while I was supposed to be posting the "Friday Five", I was actually at the Plantation Hotel watching my friends' band and behaving in a rather undignified manner !. I should explain that I avoid alcohol for two main reasons. One being that it tends to, err, intensify my personality. (ie: I begin to say even more things that I should only think ), and the other being that drinking just does not seem to agree with my body. Alcoh...
