Dear ASIO
October 23, 2005 1:32 pm general chit chatDear ASIO web trackers,
In case you are tracking my sight to gain information about my terrorist activities I would like to make the following statement.
It is true that I have not shaven in a while and have thus produced quite a thick beard. This beard is not in any way a reasons to suspect me as being a terrorist. I’m not a terrorist, I’m just lazy and cant be bothered shaving.
It may also come to your attention that I in the last 24 hours have been off on a camp at a rural property in western NSW. And yes several hours of the camp were spent I an underground cave system. I would like to point out that this camp was not a training camp for any militant group but merely a youth camp.
And just in case you have bugged me and have been listening to my conversations in the last few days, it is true that I was laughing at a joke told in Arabic, but I do not understand Arabic I merely laughed because the person who told the joke (who does speak Arabic but is not a terrorist) said in English before telling the joke “here is the joke in Arabic”.
So I conclude this letter by saying that yes I have a beard and yes I laugh at Arabic jokes and yes I was down in caves on a camp, but I am not a terrorist and I don’t know ant terrorist and I don’t agree with terrorism.
I would also like to add that if I do get detained, I don’t like sleeping on the top bunk.
sincerely.
Howie

Thank you for explanation.
Although we are still concerned about your reference to poo. We believe this may be a code word for something more sinister. And whether your blockage problems maybe due to your carrying substances in your body for terriost acts.
We are still watching you…..
