The Autocue.
That Bazza O'Bazza has the gift of the gab is undeniable. He would have me captivated announcing he was putting the cat out. Watched, listened to, got emailed, YouTubed his speech at the inauguration just an hour ago. Well, I had no choice did I? It was even on Radio Sport. Got into the vehicular transport to escape the oratory for an erudite discussion on jockstraps and there he was again bending the ear of every power pole I drove past. But how does he do it?
That it is pre-written is a given. Even the bloke who half the world thinks walks on water can't make that sort of stuff up on the hoof. He obviously has a short term memory problem as he couldn't even remember half a sentence of his oath without ballsing it up. So where is the autocue? He doesn't wear glasses so its not in the frames of those. Etched on a contact lens by some secret NASA engraving process? Projected onto the sides of his nose from a microprojector in his tie? A hologram emanating from that irritating stars and stripes brooch they all wear? Could be that as he had an extra one on his overcoat; they are normally a lounge suit appendage. One of his cute daughters (not sure if I can stand four years - or even eight - of SWMBO going gagga over those) holding up handwritten notes on the back of envelopes? He looks out into the distance when speaking so is it in sky writing? Dozens of F16s performing Gettysburgesque barrel rolls over Maryland? Got me beat.
Anyone remember what he actually said?
