Melbourne's Water Storage Levels

Our Water Our Future - TV Commercial

This TVC opens on a helicopter flying upwards carrying a water bucket over the Thomson Dam. It continues flying above the dam until it gets smaller and smaller… ..then releases its load of water. At screen bottom a water storage update. Melbourne's water storage: 1 Nov 1996 -97%; 1 Nov 2004 -58%.

Victorian Premier, Steve Bracks

As the helicopter disappears into the distance, Steve Bracks appears over the shot.

"Victoria's had some good rains…but its been little more than a drop in the dam. Victorians' water saving efforts are working, but our dams are still almost half empty. Whatever the weather, we all need to save water everyday. It's our water… our future."

This is all very well and good, but as usual, while the State Government is preaching to the unwashed masses about what they need to do, the State Government is wasting water like it falls out of the sky or something.


Every night I ride past the domain, and on average every night, I see between 6 and 13 sprinklers aimed away from the grass, and right at the road/footpath/drain.

Might not seem like much, but these units absoloutely pump out the H20. at a collective rate of tens of thousands of litres per night, every night, for ever.

We're talking hundreds of thousands of litres from the domain alone, regardless of what other systems the City of Melbourne is neglecting to maintain.

I know exactly how much pressure it takes to spray a solid jet of liquid 25 feet in the air (see photo)



...because it's exactly what happens when I cum.

There exists s dob-in system here in Victoria, where you can call the inspectors and dob someone in for wasting water, by washing their concrete path with it and the like.

I called them up and reported Steve Bracks, and the Parks Department of the Melbourne City Council.

They actually hung up on me!



Next time Bracksie needs a favour from me, I'm telling him to go fuck himself.

4 real.



This is knifey, from 'the internet'.
