When we did away with 1c and 2c coins, the odd cents remained on the price of most things. On a grocery lists, they evened themselves out to within five cents. When you got to the total, the amount was rounded up or down. A total of $xx.47 became $xx.45, and $xx.48 becane $xx.50. Over a trolley of groceries, the win or loss was no more than 3c, and over a period of time the wins and losses cancelled each other out. I haven't paid cash at a register for more than 20 years. Ahhh, fantastic plastic. I don't have a bank ap to pay by waving the phone.

Are you playing silly buggers or are you really that thick?

Well that was a surprise. I had an appointment with my cardiologist this morning (or rather this afternoon after spending 3/4 of an hour in the waiting room). I thought it wa a regular reading of data stored in the pacemaker, but after the reading he said "You'll have to have a procedure. One of the wires is loose. Get a blood test and we will let you know when the booking has been made in the hospital, probably Friday."

They would have equal importance if they mustered an equal number of votes. But they don't which is why they are called "Minor Parties."

Like I said, see a doctor and get a grip on reality. Other parties come and go at the will of the people. If they had sufficient support to draw level with, or surpass the other two, they would be mentioned too.

You can make your preferences to any party, putting the two you don't trust as 11 and 12 if you like, But it comes down to who are the last two standing, and by popular or unpopukar vote, that just happens to be ALP and LNP. Think about it like a football season. Every team gets to play, but at the end of the season, the top eight play off in the finals. Each finals match, one team is eliminated, until the Grand Final, when the last two remaining teams play off. The beaten teams are eliminated don't get to play again. Abd GON, could you imagine the commentators calling the match sayimg "Team A is leading by 15 points". No, tthey call the teams by their name. That's not showing preference, and has no impact on the outcome.

You've had it explained to you but you don't seem to be able to grasp it. They are simply reporting facts, not showing favoritism. It would be the same if the two major parties were the sporting shooters party and the sidecar racing party. How are they supposed to refer to them, Party A and Party B?

3AW personality Phillip Brady, who retired from his radio program on 2 February, passed away over night. He was aged 85.

To hel with walking the walk and talking the talk. I'm just going to sit the sit.

If I woke up and nothing hurt, I would think I was dead.

I never realised how technologically advanced Moses was. He had the first tablet that connected to the cloud.

American Civil War II is under way. BREAKING: Elon rehires Nazi hacker, moves him from the Department of Stealing Your Social Security to the State Department's most sensitive classified data. Elon is a straight up enemy of our nation and he's got full control of all the levers. Moments ago, a federal judge said the Trump administration is violating his order to restore funding to the agencies Elon is illegally sabotaging. The judge said he might hold the administration in contempt of court, while Trump, JD Vance, Elon and GOP leaders said they will target and replace any federal judge they do not like. We are in a full blown constitutional crisis. We're going to need to organize a national rebellion to stop the billionaires coup.

Elon moved the Nazi hacker to the State Department, where he now has access to the nation's most classified documents and secrets. This is a teenager who calls himself 'Big Balls' who was canned from his previous job for selling trade secrets to rivals. And here's Elon, secretly moving this guy around like Catholic bishops did with pedophile priests.

Our ISP is also TPG. It's my daughters account. She went on their website via an optus mobile wifi she has, and they reported that it was the severe storm in Sydney that put their system out.

For God's sake, how are they meant to refer to them? Like those transgenger nuts, THEM and THEY? You have seriuos issues. You need to see a doctor.

Bloody NBN went down at about 7 pm tonight. All our TV is through Foxtel via NBN so no TV. With atmospheric disturbance, free to air via antenna breaks up badly,unwatchable. I am on here via the personal hotspot on my phone.

With such a large number of candidates and so close a race, there is bound to be a recount anyway. What do you mean "favouritism"? Let's say there are 100,000 electors in an electorate. 45,000 LNP supporters, 46,000 ALP. That's 91,000. The other 9,000 support minor parties. Should their votes be discarded because their first preference had no hope of getting in? If 6,000 of them preferred LNP to Labor and 3,000 preferred Labor, given only two choices, most of the 100.000 preferred LNP. That's why our preferencial system is best.
