2009 Chevy Camaro In Melbourne, Wears Black

You've probably already heard that the 2009 Chevy Camaro has come out of the closet and waved its 1970s inspired butt around a bit. Well, not only did it wave said butt around at GM HQ in the US it also waved its butt around at GM Holden’s Melbourne headquarters where the Aussie team involved in the design of the Transformer car were present.

At the Melbourne reveal a few earlier versions of the Camaro hung out with their cool little brother who was dressed appropriately for the occasion in Melbourne black. Included amongst the old folks was the 1969 Camaro SS of reigning V8 Supercar Champion Garth Tander.

Melbourne Water: The Heady Days of 1997


So it looks like all our water saving shinanigans might finally be paying off. The interactive year-by-year storage chart at the Melbourne Water website shows that since about February we've had slightly more water in storage than the previous year. Of course that's nothing compared to the rediculous amount of water 10-years-ago Me had access to. Those were the days... back when you could just get a glass of fresh, clean and FREE water out of the kitchen tap... *sigh*
