Yes, Obama seems a nice enough guy but what he could possibly have accomplished as a senator from Illinois to warrant his being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize was a real head scratcher. It couldn't have been for anything he'd done as president because he'd barely been in office five minutes.

These sorts of things make the award kind of meaningless 

Okay, I admit I am not a fan of his but even people I know who are devoted were bemused to learn he'd been awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature. I just don't get it, beyond its being the ultimate sop to the Boomer generation. 

I would imagine the vast majority of people under the age of 50 would have trouble placing the name, and virtually no millennials would have heard of him at all. Not that obscurity has ever been a barrier to winning the prize - since when has the Prize gone to an author the man on the street has even heard of, let alone read? 

Makes you wonder who will be the Nobel Laureate in 2056. Adele? Taylor Swift? Katy Price?

Yes, the song is Kookaburra Sits on The Old Gum Tree

I'm sure it's lovely in Welsh, but I think I prefer the Australian version

The tune for Waltzing Matilda was originally Scottish - Thou Bonnie Wood of Craiglea

Of course for true lovers of poetry there is always this classic Eddie Murphy Skit from Saturday Night Live many years ago. The poem? Images, by Tyrone Greene
