  1. Marty 1:1. Yea, I tell unto ye, many will quote some ancient fiction as though it bear relevance or meaning. Marty 1:2. It doesn't.
  2. The only answer is to make it compulsory to number every box.
  3. Your chances of winning the lottery are exactly the same each time (well, accounting for other factors like the number of tickets bought etc) regardless of whether you've won multiple times before or never won a cent.

    Quickies part 2

    The "family" bush is a bit worrying. Getting into 1-tooth, 3-string banjo territory there.
  5. From a mathematical perspective they should be the same number, unless you stay down...
  6. Kirk Douglas?
  7. Why would you need to? They sell beer in the supermarkets.
  8. It beggars belief that in a country of well over 300million people, the two running for President are geriatric white men, one a criminal. Is this the best they can do? It's a failing of both parties. The Republicans because they decided to race for the bottom, but more importantly the Democrats because they didn't plan for a replacement for someone whose age cohort is usually found in nursing homes. Why didn't they make an agreement with Joe that he would serve 1 term, then endorse a younger candidate to run in 2024? Is there NO Democrat suitable?
  9. ...what their wives do on date night?
  10. Is it a Chinese phenomenon?
  11. It depends if the fast charge batteries become widespread. The ability to swap out the battery becomes less important if you have a battery that can be charged in 5 minutes and the infrastructure to do so.

    Brain Teaser

    What.
  13. Peter,(Red750 not the other Peter), I apologise if I did misinterpret the meaning of your post.
  14. Willedoo, that's your opinion which you are fully entitled to have, but I don't agree with it.
  15. Whichever government does the murdering - we NEED investigative journalists to keep shedding light on them. Charging them with espionage offenses and locking them up has a chilling effect on future whistleblowers. If you want a society like China or Russia where you're not allowed to criticize the government or even know what they are doing, that's exactly what you'll get if you treat journalists like the US treated Assange. He may be a flawed individual but all he did was expose the rot.
  16. So... you support the right of the US to murder civilians and keep it quiet under the threadbare fig leaf of "National Security"?
  17. They were only released yesterday.
  18. Now the opposition are trying desperately to find some relevance by acting horrified that the PM rang Julian Assange. Why the hell would he NOT ring an Australian citizen and award-winning journalist who has been either seeking asylum or imprisoned in a foreign country for the past 12 years?? Shows how desperate the LNP are. Even Barmy Joyce, occasional acting PM when their side was in, has very publicly stated that Assange should be brought home.
  19. Good result OME! Hopefully you'll soon be cruising the highways with your CHiP uniform...
  20. He's world famous. If he put up a crowd-funding appeal to pay for the costs he'll get it all back.
  21. The rest of people you mean? I agree. Maybe instead of the technology for detecting that molecule of THC that you smoked 2 weeks ago, the cops should bring back an ability test. Make the driver reverse park behind the cop car. That should pull up anyone under the influence plus plenty of sober people who shouldn't be behind the wheel.
  22. More informed than most, given your background.
  23. As opposed to the laws they'll have to bring in to reverse the ban on nuclear in some states and then force unwilling residents to accept a nuclear power plant next door?
  24. Haven't you seen Full Monty? She could reverse up to it.
  25. Maybe he's having a sly dig. If the BEST thing about Trump is his honesty, then he has no good attributes at all. What, she grabs women on the pussy too?
