  1. You don't get re-runs of your bad efforts either.
  2. It is disturbing that a minority are now hanging sh#t on the NO voters, who are the majority of Australians, saying they are less educated or gullible or did not do their homework. None of those things are true about me or the circle of friends who I know did not support the Voice. It was always a bad idea and the majority were smart enough to work that out.
  3. Headline in the Age this morning: Devastating verdict: Australia tells First Nations people ‘you are not special'. they nailed it, exactly! No Australian is special. We all have the same responsibilities and must obey the same laws, and we all have access to the same political processes.
  4. A referendum cannot fail. There is no success or failure. A referendum is put to determine what the people want.
  5. In the 1960s the ABC in South Australia had an advert campaign for ‘I like Clive' who was a popular presenter. Someone should dig out a copy and play it for us.
  6. I have seen virtually no NO advertising, but YES is everywhere. I voted already, NO changing my mind now!
  7. Billy Thorpe?
  8. ABC is 100% yes. No balanced reporting at all. Same with the Age.
  9. At the point they leave home, they are an emigrant.
  10. There are dashcam videos showing fatal Russian car accidents. I am starting to enjoy them.
  11. It’s not the only ethical question for the Russian government.
  12. Two weeks in 10% molasses and they would be bright. Cost hardly anything.
  13. Not sure that I believe that. Could be faked. The energy transfer would be incredible.
  14. I can make room for that in my shed.
  15. He was a mate of Max Headroom.
  16. If you get the ball type don't put it anywhere else.
  17. It is suddenly easier to breathe here.
  18. Avon means river in the old language. Middlesex was probably a haven for transsexuals.
  19. We have yes posters everywhere, but no no posters. Shows the power of intimidation. No one is game to put up a no poster, even though the majority will vote no.
  20. I have hit two Roos and an emu in 54 years of driving. Never had a roo bar and never would for the good reasons given by OME.
  21. Mr Ed was a stable genius.
  22. Yes but it wasn’t written that way. Even then it would have been provocative. Mum thought it was clever.
  23. We had a nearby business converting cheap small cars into battery electric about ten years ago. He did a couple of hundred then disappeared.
  24. Day? I don't know whether this should go here, or in the immigration thread. When I was small and we lived in Northmead, Sydney, a shopkeeper had a sign that read "shop now, before the day goes".
  25. 60 years ago the "stolen" kids were living in religiously minded families in our town. Generally, with two or three white children of the family. But the sad part was they were only kept for a year or two then passed on to another family. I can see why they felt stolen and unloved.
