About @ndy
I live in Melbourne, Australia. I like anarchy. I don't like nazis. I enjoy eating pizza and drinking beer. I barrack for the greatest football team on Earth: Collingwood Magpies. The 2016 premiership's a cakewalk for the good old Collingwood.

RE: The last two comments. The good news is these days all of the horse shit in the world is starting to unfold and can just simply be pointed out.

People are just scared, you can’t hate them for that.
Question: Been meaning to ask what your stance is on Ron Paul. Thought you might have blogged on it?
