  1. Be like all day jerky, I don’t think anyone’s ever wore a set out.
  2. I have a wide and varied taste, just some of the older great ones are no longer with us or touring. On my list would have been Lynard Skynard, chuck Berry, and many others
  3. Always feel like that at concerts now, Def leopard, Jon Stevens, guns n roses, Richard Marx. All these old.people like the same.music, then realise I'm one of them😄

    Brain Teaser

    A cheese plate.
  5. Allan Jackson?
  6. Like Alone, whole production crew out there, probably munging on burgers and fries whilst the contestants are eating lizards and bugs etc.
  7. I often play chuck’s music, it is always a pick me up.
  8. Just realised of all the books I have read, I have never picked up Frankenstein, if I can find a copy I might just have a read of it. When I was 11, I got a copy of a tale of two city's for my birthday, back then I found it heavy going. I have been thinking of digging it up out of my library and having a crack at it again now I might understand it better.
  9. Yet Trump can run for president from jail if he gets anytime from his trials, how stuffed up I that.
  10. I have just got a coffee tree to plant to try this for myself, might even get a few more as I have read 1 to 2 kg Max beans a year per tree, and I have 5 to 10 cups a day. Will be interesting to compare home grown to bought when it happens.
  11. Could be Victorian, that stupid use left lane to turn right nearly killed me as a young driver. I Got of the FEERY, and drove north to go to NSW, I followed the arrows in the celica, pulled to the furthest left lane and turned right across 3 lanes both ways, had to floor it to not get smashed. Nobody warned me you have to wait for the lights to change the other way. Not a good start to the trip.🙄
  12. I've seen a lot of hyundai excels nealy tip over like on What's eating Gilbert grape or nearly wheels standing around here, especially on a Thursday.
  13. OME I think we need a grammar police inspection 😉
  14. I wanted to smash my TV last night, the 60 minutes story on Theybes- the new word for children where WOKE parents want to enforce their unscientific views from day one on their children boiledmy blood. You are born in 2 ways normally , either male of female, with occasional mutations of both or none just like any other creature in the animal kingdom. One day this collective mental illness of believing you a unicorn, helicopter or any other made verb will come to a head. I don't care how any one wants to live their life, but don't force it onto unwilling participants in your car who cannot comprehend it or make an informed choice due to age/development. This will do untold damage to their future not develop them into balanced humans.
  15. Dining tables for a real small race of beings?
  16. I fell foul of a small scam a few days ago. I went to register a car, typed in renew my rego, tapped first website as it was always the top one. Typed away, hit go, then did not get rego receipt notice. Website was Aus vehicle check, took 50c first time to tell me my car is registered, after I went to correct site and done it. Then a few days later doing my MYOB stuff at work, here was Aus Vehicle Check for $1. I had not returned to their site to use it again. I figured they would keep doing this and then maybe go for a big one. My card number of 15 years, fully memorised for use had to be cancelled, and a new one issued to stop them. Now other things I have set up on it are now defaulting. It is a huge pain in the a$$. beware of doing website forms on autopilot, it could have been way worse, I will now start scrutinising the header better again now.
  17. Kind of like part of a maxwell smart sort of thing with kaos,
  18. My google home, which I bought for a bit of a joke- to turn the bedroom lights off and on, is sometimes hard to get to listen to what you want it to do. Yet when I whispered “google are you spying on me” her reply was clear, “no, I am listening to be a better assistant to you”. I think some times it should be turned off. some caravans have Alexa installed and on a training course we were advised to unplug whilst working, as some customers had found an app to listen and provide a transcript. It had caught a few other service staff out for comments made in private. paranoia is maybe our lizard brain (as Lee Child puts it in Jack Reacher novels) protecting us from things that may harm us.
  19. Daggy jeans might have helped hide him more realisticly
  20. No 6 B and S cable was 16mm2 when I started using for caravan fridges. Now 14.59mm2 and the lugs have gone down in gauge of copper tube wall thickness, now $400 crimpers I bought 16 years ago don’t crimp up tight and I have to go down 1 setting to lock ends on, then they end up with wings on side. Always go up a size now rather than down and there is less chance of overheating of copper/or failure to carry load.
  21. In NSW now if you leave your car unattended for too long, Kevin Rudd's baby bonus kids will take it for you to save the hassle of moving it, even from your own driveway🙄
  22. Mongrels have blocked it from us on copyright grounds. no sense of humour
  23. at least there is a supervisor, any council would be proud.
  24. I don’t get how there are hundreds of thousands of jobs advertised- majority would be in the city and we can’t get people to fill jobs. There are suburbs where large amounts of unemployment supposedly exist. Lots of these jobs are labouring, shelf stocking and driving deliveries etc. You don’t need to be uni educated to do these, so they are not out of bounds for the average person. The dole is meant to be too low to live on, but many seem to do it and still smoke, drink and get tattoos, iPhones etc. in the country we have a lot of imported workers to operate the chicken and red meat works here. They are reportedly great workers compared to locals. My mates when they young worked in meat works and made really good money compared to my boring factory job cutting carpet tiles for 40hrs per week. Here the young people don’t like the smell or the blood etc, so don’t take up the work. We should have very limited unemployment. Any given day that court is on, there is a large social club happening on the brick walls around it. And if you are observant the culprits are usually the same lot ( the majority) bludging and going to court has become their social outing for the week/fortnight. the increasing amount of crime going on in our area is happening at night when people who work are asleep, the offenders have the benefit of lounging around all day to strike at this opportunity. We need to do something about employment and forcing people to take what is offered as a way into the work force, you don’t have to stay at the bottom rung, but you have to start there. When the powers in charge work out how to do this then society might improve.
  25. Beginning of natural selection?
