The Bloody Fool has gone too far He's started a War!
rgmwa replied to old man emu's topic in General Discussion
I'm not sure this will go down all that well with the MAGA crowd, even if the only aim was to get Maduro (oh.. and all that oil of course). They thought they'd voted for a Nobel prize-winning Peace President. -

No real surprise. He's been talking about it for weeks. Apparently they've captured Maduro and his wife and flown them out of the country. I wonder if that's legal? -
Why should they take any notice of that unless he props them up with cash handouts?
-
I hope he did. He signed off the drawings so he may be taking a risk if he didn’t. On the other hand most modified/re-purposed buildings don’t fail mainly because they never see their full design loads. You could say they rely more on a factor of ignorance than a factor of safety. I bought a hangar built from recycled materials that falls into that category.
-
Sounds like he did a good job. Did he reverse engineer the existing frames to check their capacity or just draw up the plans?
-
Same here. Haven’t seen my tax accountant for about 25 years since he moved out of the city. Everything is done by email. I just send him all the details once a year and he has it done the next day.

That’s obvious dramatic nonsense. I’d be the last person to defend MAGA or Rubio but Crimea was invaded when the Democrats were in power and the US did practically nothing. Trump has made things a lot worse for Ukraine than they probably would have been under Kamala Harris but the problems pre-date both Rubio and MAGA.

It's not a horse Nev. Please stick to the facts. 😊

Well, 41 here in the Hills east of Perth this afternoon with a bit of a thunderstorm on the way by the look of it.
-
Same to you Nev, and I hope you last a fair bit longer than the next 10 days. I'm a bit younger than you, but I'd say everyone here has lost friends and relatives along the way. That's life, unfortunately, but much better to still be here among the living than listed with the missing.

Seemed quite logical to me when you explained it, although it didn't sound as though what the Spirit did was very Holy. That was a bit disappointing.
-
People say they will be the best looking battleships ever built. Like nothing ever seen before. Not even close.
-
Does that mean he's going to learn how to weld too?
-
He said he’s going to be personally involved in designing them because he’a a ‘very aesthetic person’ and he doesn’t like the current flat sided shapes used for stealth reasons. That tells you all you need to know. There are a few other problems - there’s no money allocated for their design and construction, the shipyards don’t have the capacity, and the two and a half years he says it will take to build each ship is totally unrealistic. Every warship they are currently building is at least a year behind schedule.
-
Someone should remind him that battleships are obsolete. Doesn’t look good for our submarines if the shipyards are now going to be busy building battleships.

I hope the American taxpayers are happy with their new plaques.
-
An optimist would probably have thought he meant Natural Intelligence. Apparently, I'm not an optimist.

I've had two big gum trees fall on the house in a severe storm earlier this year. They were not even our trees. They were on the road verge but were tall enough to reach the house and cause a lot of damage. Not a nice experience.
-
When someone was asked how they were coping with all the stress and anxiety and uncertainty caused by the constantly changing Covid medical advice and lockdowns, they said " No problem, I'm used to all that. I shop at Aldi."
-
IGA and ALDI are the main ones.

He had a mental and physical breakdown which he describes in the book.
-
Robert Pirsig as I recall. Read it years ago although I've never ridden a motorbike.
-
Of course not. And I agree.
-
Because the suggestions he made about what could and should be done to try and prevent another Bondi happening in the future were reasoned and sensible. He was a good treasurer in his time and Albo is a good Prime Minister, but neither have a monopoly on good ideas.
-
Josh Frydenberg just gave Albo and the government an angry serve on their failure to do enough to counter anti-semitism. Made some very good points and handed him an action plan. I hope Albo’s listening.
