    Quickies part 2

    A guy got pulled over by the police. The cop walked up to his window and asked, "Do you know why I pulled you over?" The guy said, "To check how tall I am?" The cop looked definitely unimpressed and said, "Step out of the car please." The guy said, "So I was right then?"
  3. At about 3 am on the Hume Highway between Yass and Goulburn, a semi-trailer was pulling into a rest area when it was struck from behind by another semi. This pushed the first one into four others already in the rest area with drivers asleep. The trucks caught fire and were totally destroyed. All drivers walked away with only minor injuries. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2026-06-30/hume-highway-truck-crash-multiple-vehicles-drivers-injured/106859504
  4. I saw a video clip on Facebook the other day where the guy stuck a stick in the end of the Tim Tam, dipped it in marshmallow, and toasted it over an open fire. He also dropped an Oreo into a cup, covered it with milk, popped it in the microwave for a couiple of minutes then ate it.

  8. Did you know that Arnotts Tim Tam biscuits are named after a racehorse? Tim Tam was a champion American Thoroughbred racehorse foaled in 1955 and owned by Calumet Farm. Sired by Hall of Famer Tom Fool out of Two Lea, he was trained by Horace A. Jones and ridden by Bill Hartack. In 1958, Tim Tam won the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes, becoming a strong favorite for the Triple Crown. However, his bid ended in the Belmont Stakes when he fractured a sesamoid bone during the race, finishing second and ending his racing career. Tim Tam died of a heart attack in 1982 and was buried at Calumet Farm. The Australian chocolate biscuit Tim Tam is named after the horse.

  12. Just announced on the news - Starmer has announced he is stepping down and planning the handover.
  13. From 1969 to 1972, America put 12 men on the moon in nine missions. Eight of the surviving crew members (notably absent is the reclusive Neil Armstrong) talk about their experiences in a documentary called In The Shadow of The Moon, not to be confused with a movie of the same name released a few years later. The documentary was played on TV a few days ago. Here is a link to the Wikipedia article on the documentary - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_the_Shadow_of_the_Moon_(2007_film). Of all the astronauts who appeared in the film, only Buzz Aldrin demanded to be paid. A quote I recall from the end of the documentary was one of the astronauts who said "We sent nine trips to the moon but sceptics still say it was faked in a hangar. Why would we fake it nine times?"
