More importantly, I hope nobody starts to think that all Australians sound like her.

Drift ! Drift ! Whatever happened to Bondi's bridge? I didn't even know Pam bought a bridge! (Gullible, I say)

Yep. In a message to Norway's prime minister, Trump blamed the country for not giving him the prize. "Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace.."

Rememberthat A.I. is constantly learning, and gaining better every day. As it matures, it will exceed everone's ability to pick a fake. Furthermore, our collective reliance and trust is steadily increasing. It will easily replace googling to find the answer to any question. In future I'm going down to the mens shed or the pub to get my facts.

The last comment puzzled me. After 20 years service, one of Canada's hovercraft is being sold off to be used for rescue work in 'the swamps of the Indian Ocean'. Ocean is not usually swampy.

And rupert has never forgiven you.

One trick is going to the propagandists and official PR first to identify what definitely is not a truth, and to set floors and ceilings for where reality might be. I applied that to the news about the Good murder in USA. When the WH called it domestic terrorism, I combined that with assuming that any story headline that stirs deep emotions is likely non-credible. So I figured it was murder. Of course in that particular example we'll probably never see a court ruling to confirm.

We all get caught up in major news stories from time to time. With all the tech & social media "improvements" to our information sources, what can we trust? When you say "the press", do you mean the multi-billion-dollar corporations owned and/or controlled by billionaire oligarchs? Just my opinion, but if you're still consuming, or worse paying for that stuff, it's probably best to quit the habit. These days we have to dig deeper.

At last! A post that's NOT political. How can a hovercraft be an ice breaker?

Well it was on the news in Steak-n-kidney. I clearly recall laughing my head off about it. At the time I wished I could go down to Adelaide to sit on that beach - would have been some party! (Of sceptics)

Here's another conspiracy for you. Does it confirm the new bond between Russia & USA ?

But I paid cash for it.

IF the Riley allegations are factual, they should have some provability. For instance his allegation about a military person being dishonorably discharged for watching porn (that showed a underage Riley), there should be verifyable records to support that allegation. For too long I have waited to hear any comment from victims of trafficing. If they exist, why have they not come forward?

Had a Cortina with that motor. Yes, it was fast in its day.
