Sigh, looks like my beer drinking shenanigans blog is no longer welcome on the internet...

I was a bit disappointed in a way.  One of the sample questions they
had on the briefing sheet was about whether anyone thought Conroy
was doing a good job.

I had a great answer locked and loaded, which was going to rattle off
the ever-growing series of trainwrecks and craters he's produced since
he became minister, and suggest that if Mr. Rudd was half as serious
about Broadband as he claimed before the election then perhaps he should
put a grown-up in charge of the Broadband department.

It was the last question on the run sheet.  Cut for time, I think :-)
