Kelly's lyrics right on course (but Rick Price is still with me)

Not a day goes by.

Some people are annoyed with the selection of Paul Kelly's song lyrics/poetry as a possible senior text in the Victorian English course over the next few years. Salam Pax's Bagdad Blog is also on the list (the print version!).

The text list was released last year and has only been picked up by the media now? It all works to build up to the National Literacy Inquiry due to be released in early december.

I worry for DE&T if Victor Perton is around when the 'Liberal' party is next in power. This is probably going to be a long long time, but you never know. As they say oppositions don't win, governments loose and Bracks is doing a good job of turning plenty of people off.
