Comments on Letter from Canberra

Holy shit. That house is on my parents' street!

No way! You a canberran?

I got to the polling place this morning as the workers got there. My favorite hardware salesman arrived at the same time and we chatted inside the polling place until it opened. After a while I wanted a cigarette. I went to go outside and saw about thirty people waiting in line. I am pretty sure that thirty people was the total number of voters for the last couple of elections in my precinct.(Mayoral and whatnot).
