Despite the name, the Australian Liberal Party is anything but liberal.

It was as a young woman that she changed her name from Susan to Sussan, inspired by numerology - an ancient belief that numbers have a mystical impact on people's lives.

"I read about this numerology theory that if you add the numbers that match the letters in your name you can change your personality," she told The Australian.

"I worked out that if you added an 's' I would have an incredibly exciting, interesting life and nothing would ever be boring. It's that simple."

Hoo boy.

You know, there is some legitimacy to believing things like that.

The fact that she believes that added an S to her name will make her live a more interesting life will probably encourage her to do things she otherwise would not.
