Gentlemen Without Weapons - Unconditional Love (Planet Earth)
Great environmentalist anthem, this. Why it wasn't a hit remains a mystery.

Working all day, all day, all day!
Got a lot done today, managed to get Skype working on my PC again and also downloaded Microsoft Office Accounting 2009 so that I can learn how to keep track of transactions for the Young Brisbane Naturists group and Brisbane Doctor Who Fan Club once they start gaining height - can't afford to put things off and be haphazard about my money forever.
I'm gonna get back into using Neways and Tony Ferguson products now that most of my outstanding expenses have been settled. Also started a new site on Blogspot called Nude Music Videos, which is dedicated to the depiction of human nudity both male and female in music videos over the last 3 decades starting with Duran Duran's Girls On Film to the recent Erykah Badu one.
It got a good response on the International Young Naturists site, and one person has already started to follow it today! Yay!!!
Got my room tidied up, and sent off Kloe's photos and clips to her, as well as putting up vids for Aussie Allstars' "Aussie Aussie Aussie Oi! Oi! Oi!" and Sparks' "Love Will Conquer All" onto YouTube. Also going to send Steve his clips at the Troubadour when he supported The Hits there recently with his band "Screamin' Stevie's Australia".
Did a photoshoot with Caitlin Kemble-Welch at her new place in Highgate Hill today. It's a more rustic and older place than the one that she and Adric were living in in West End, but it's still nice. Got some cool boudoir and fetish shots done, and she wore some pretty far-out makeup for it with lots of rogue and colourful eyeshadow with black lipstick. I'm sending her the results during the week, and can't wait to photograph her again with Samantha for the Alexandria Bay beach day next Sunday, should be a lot of fun!
I'm going on a mission tonight to get the rest of my room sorted out from top to bottom, and tomorrow sorting through all my photos and putting them in the proper order. Very long and arduous task, but it's possible.

Don't Judge Me
I've recently written another new song called "Don't Judge Me", which I practiced for the first time yesterday with my band Laissez-Fayre. This is one of my most personal songs that I've written in a long time which deals with the hardships and offences I've faced when coming out to others that I am a nudist, and the problems that nudists face from some areas of society where having beaches closed down and being dumped on by self-righteous religious nutcases is concerned.
The most ironic thing about this song is that it is written in a style of music that I don't usually listen to, which is country & western. However it sounds more like an old-school C&W number rather than something that Billy Ray Cyrus, Taylor Swift, Keith Urban or Garth Brooks would write. I mainly wrote it in this vein because the majority of nudists (at least in Australia and America anyway) are C&W fans and in their 40's - 60's and grew up with that type of music.
For people who judge nudists, I usually think that a lot of things they say about them is unfounded. To write us all off as being swingers, child molesters, or into incest is very off-the-mark. Yes, there are some nudists who are like that but please - the majority of nudists want nothing to do with them. We've become a culture where a person is judged due to 'guilty by association'. The same thing happened to Jesus when he kept company with the societal rejects rather than the elitist leaders like the Sadduccees and the Pharisees.
Regretfully, the picture has not changed. Even in today's so-called age of enlightenment, people (especially teens and young adults) are still very judgemental and will actively vilify or ridicule what they do not understand. Being a nudist is one of those things. I find it hypocritical that those same people would not dare speak out against gay and lesbian people, or dark skinned people, so what does it have to say about our human nature? Then again, I also think that nudists need to share the blame when they closet themselves and refuse to tell and educate other people about their lifestyle.
You can read the lyrics to the song on the hyperlink at the beginning of this article. Your feedback would be most appreciated. :)

Satan's Ten Commandments
1) You can worship any god you want.
2) Better to worship a false god than no God at all. Make idols out of power, money, fame, and sex and enjoy them unfetterdly.
3) Thou shalt put your hand up a trusted girl's dress or steal money from a church and say "God told me to do that".
4) Work 24/7 even on the Sabbath. Capitalism has made godliness unnecessary.
5) Hate and disrespect your parents, they are boring old authoritarian windbags and full of shit.
6) Kill anyone whom you don't like, or whom enrages you.
7) Take whatever you want from others and from the earth without putting anything back.
8) Go behind your partner's back and have affairs whenever you want. Stolen water tastes sweeter.
9) You can have whatever your neighbour has, just take it.
10) Lie, gossip about and talk about other people behind their backs whom you don't particularly like. The sooner they are out of the picture the better.
