Just read this news and it's a great song: Pink Floyd have reunited to record their first new material in 28 years, a protest song against the Ukraine war. Hey Hey, Rise Up! features David Gilmour and Nick Mason alongside long-time Floyd bassist Guy Pratt and Nitin Sawhney on keyboards.

I don't understand the question (because I have a (horrible) tendency to ignore theoretical considerations) - however, sex is definitely the answer!

My ex-wife is charismatic and charming (still CUTE and still has a BODY (not a good foundation for a marriage) - which is still amazing since my ex-wife is eleven years older than me - still a SCAM ARTIST (Does a tiger lose its' stripes as it gets older?) - I guess we all play the FOOL (I know I did) at some point in our Lifes (and your money is going to part from you under suspicious circumstances while you are playing the FOOL). I guess the TRICK is not to make the same mistake twice in your lifetime (easily said - harder to accomplish)!

That's called MARKETING. I have some Sketchers I have been wearing for years, I pop them in the wash. All these trendy shoes are for those woke people who want to make a statement..hey look at me I'm exercising and boo hoo to you old fat idiots. All you do is see how the shoes feel on your feet. I always look for specials. There only thing after having three kids it is not worth buying cheapo Kmart school shoes for your kids. They didn't last a term and the soles just fell off. I go to clearance shops that have premium leather school shoes at a much lower price.

i am not an adventurous but travelling to Thailand. The biggest thrill and adventure was visiting the buddist site where i got to sit and pat numerous full grown tigers.Scary and euphoric at the same time

If you want to lock yourself down for 3 days, then go ahead, knock yourself out! BUT don't force it upon those that don't want to participate. There has been too much loss of freedoms and too many restrictions! I used to LOVE the free country we once lived in, the freedom that our ancestors fought and died for!

Hopefully people will just use less sugar. I cut out sugar around 12 years ago and I'm much better for it.

I don’t use any digital assistant - I've managed for the last 60 odd years without one and think my "grey matter" is all the better off for it! (I also no not use "spell check" or calculators!)

Depends on what the drug is and why they're taking it for. If it's for enhancing like steroids, then I think they should be banned but if it's for medical purpose, then it's ok.

It only used to be rich idiots who did this...remember Yowie?...Yowie Bowie?...David hopes you don't....and the lovely Moon Unit...Frank Zappa's offspring?...they just changed their names as soon as they could...so can everyone else I guess...

have a friend who was visiting a cemetery and said she saw a tombstone that read: "beneath this sod lies another"

I was too busy dealing with survival issues (and childhood physical abuse issues) in the early stages of my life - I just can not remember!

How did it happen?.....it was a gradual process, starting in the 1970's when gay men started wearing trainers when they had no intention to do any training...that quickly spread to the whole population...then we had "girl power" which meant the only way to be equal to men was to wear your bra on the outside and wander around half naked...this has now filtered down to the general population...it can be a blessing or a curse depending on how much fat is crammed into very small quantities of a semi see through stretch material....each to their own....

School is not just about grades. School is about learning how to develop social skills, to negotiate, to converse, to organise your time, to learn about what is appropriate in different contexts ... the list goes on. These are all vital skills for the workforce. They may not help you get a job initially, but they will certainly help you keep it, and they improve your chances of progressing in work that you really enjoy.

I think we rely on it way too much,back in 1859 there was major disruotion due to a sloar flare.it wiped out the worlwide telegraph system,When,its not if but when,imagine what it would be like,every electrical circuit fried,no communications,no power,no pumpimg stations,planes falling from the sky,you have already seen how people reacted to the china virus emptying shelves,imagine how it will be when this happens,every man for himself,they estimate it would take 10 years and trillions of dollars to just get US back to normal,if anyone is interested heres a link to the carrington event https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrington_Event#:~:text=The%20Carrington%20Event%20was%20a,largest%20geomagnetic%20storm%20on%20record.

It doesn't fall into the "sexist" category at all! A man opening a door for a woman is delightful (and kinda sexy!).

i think if you date a man that expects sex after paying your dating the wrong type of man,before i married and dated women,if i asked them out i paid,not once did i expect anything in return.

some zoos are open plan and the animals are free to roam in large areas such as Monato Zoo in South Australia and Dubbo Zoo in NSW they are OK as they try and bread endangered animals

I have been a personal carer for 19 and a half years and now friday the 2nd i have now retired for ever.Yeah no more hard work.

I had a Japanese pen pal about 50 years ago but after an earthquake never heard from her again. I currently write to a friend in America who hasn't got a computer but haven't heard from him for some time so will be writing to him very soon. Hope he is still around. There has occasionally been a gap in our letter-writing so I'm not too worried about it.

Were we friends during our marriage to each other - NO! We are friends - NOW, but we are NOT married to each other - it took decades to get too this point - as we both accepted responsibility for the demise of our marriage! Fortunately - for both of us, when we were married to each other - we did not have a child!

Yes I have been and it was the most scary of times. I was taken back to my childhood where something horrendous happened and I now remember it more clearly than before.

They are being paid to do a job, so why should the brides parents pay for food and drinks for them!!!

I would not pick on any single person as I have 6 children 17 grandchildren 8 great grandchildren and 1 great great grandchild. They are all precious.

I have always recycled cards into gift tags, and yes you are correct - they are too expensive today and make the process of just sending someone a card, an awful one (when did cards get to be 10 dollars or more?!?! and that's without postage, lol).

I don\u2019t set a time limit Just enjoy doing things and they will be finished when they\u2019re done Relax

It's a petty sad state of affairs when one has to start working at any age. Once 'work' is started in never ends (even in retirement.) We should try and let kids be kids as long as possible because like time itself, once it passes it never comes back.

39 years ago I asked my current wife to join our work indoor cricket team [the twisted kids] ,she did, now 3 kids 3 grandkids so many houses 4 dogs 5 cars,i digress ,my employer of 20 years asked me to talk to my wife about quitting she had just become pregnant with our first, so i quit along with her and we started a cleaning business which went for nearly 34 yours until covid put an end to that,but it was such a good move ,we met a lot of people,so i thank them for there ignorance

The VA Hospital isn't in Australia it is Boston USA. Successive Federal, State and Territory Governments in Australia have been deliberately starving Australia's entire Health System of fundes for decades. It doesn't matter if they are from the Right or Left of politics. The Federal Government only wants to sqwuander untold hundreds of billions on Armaments and other Military equipment to "Protect Australia from foreign invasion" - they never actually tells us whom it is who is threatening Australia. The totally absurd thing about all this squandering of all that money, yes I know it is minuscule compared to the US and China, is that all of this equipment will be completely obsolete before any of it actually becomes operational! These absurd governments - since when does a country with just 26 million people need ONe Federal, 6 State & 2 Territory Governments? All are now hell-bent on squandering even more billions on Space Exploration! As if they haven't, along with all the rest of the World's Politicians, made a big enough mess of our World without doing the same to others. Spend all that money on Housing, Health and Education and stop warmongering. It is our Politicians and Religious Leaders who have been, and still are, responsible for All the Wars which have ever been waged. Decent, Honest, Ordinary people want no part of those wars, yet they are the ones who are sent out to fight and die for the wars the politcians have deliberately, and are at present trying to create.

One of my neighbours is not very friendly they turn there back when they see me lol I don't even know them some people are very strange

I moved to Melbourne from Sydney 40 years ago. I thought I was going to die. No friends, cold, wet. Anyway I am still here. I have kids now and grandkids. You need to keep social. Oh and I got rid of the husband! That greatly improved my life, regardless of where I live!

WOULD NOT WASTE MY MONEY on any screen or DVD, I have a very full and active life, dont have the desire to sit like a potatoe watching make believe, I prefer REAL LIFE with REAL people. Warts and all.

It's the New year and the Misandry Campaign is, once again, off and running. We hear, endlessly, about how Horrible, how Distrustful, how Devious, how Abusive, how Misogynistic men are. They are no longer allowed to express an opinion, they must never, ever dare to say they don't like some female, their clothes, their botoxed faces, artificially pumped up lips - the list of what men must not do and how cruel, unfeeling and hurtful they are is endless and on-going BUT we never, ever hear, or rather are never allowed to hear that Females can be every bit as bastardly as any male BUT challenge them and they will claim they are "Exercising THEIR Right to Freedom of Speech and Expression"! No apologies but Christina C's statement is typical misandrist nonsense, men are no more, nor less, likely to have ulterior motives than any woman.

NOPE< never ate as so called FAST FOOD as it was proved to sell rubbish, LOOK at al the change in health and size of people before fast food and after, tells you all you need to know, when u put rubbish in you body, you end up as rubbish. U R WHAT U EAT

Yes and I cut them out of my life completely. We seem to be conditioned to cop this rubbish and look the other way etc. Not on. Some people are drama driven, others are using these tactics to keep you under their thumb with you thinking you can or should help them for some stupid reason. Life is too short to have to deal with these types of roller coaster relationships. Being on tender hooks waiting for the boom gates to drop and you have to appease them in some way. Cut and run...

No Thanks.Nothing could get me on a cruise ships as they are breeding grounds for germs and viruses and potetial death traps(Costa Concordia).Also you cannot choose your fellow travelllers and you are stuck with them fot the hole time.Not for me.

God, no!!!! Another BS scheme by the Governments, the Greenies etc. Whilst good in theory, it just doesn't work, the outlay is too much, damage not covered, lifetime is short. I have enough problems!!!

Not me, I learnt to go remove the idiot box, radio and limit internet, go to bed early, sleep like a log. and never have a problem waking up and being grumpy.

I wonder just how many people here on this forum are aware that since October 2021 that the Australian government can hack, quite legally, your social media accounts and alter and delete them for any reason whatsoever? It's called the Identify and Disrupt Bill which was passed at 2am on a Wednesday late in that month. Go and look it up on the Australian government website if you don't believe me. I was told this by my son who happened to be working with some Barristers who were visited by a man called Arthur, whom our previous female Premier in NSW had been in a relationship with at that time, just so people don't think I'm writing this with the view to commit some kind of fraud! I cannot watch MSM any longer because my research outside of this alleged "media sources" has led me to scientific research and resulting evidence leaving no room for me to conclude anything other than the following: that what is "news" content, at least as it relates to the"magic potion" killing and maiming people across the planet, is simply propaganda and theatre. I did not draw this conclusion without facts empirically derived from Researchers, Doctors and Scientists of many varied disciplines and I KNOW that my own government has lied and continues to lie about their own involvement in this charade. This is backed up in previously confidential documents detailing the Australian Military's involvement from decades ago of weaponising biological organisms through gain of function research and funding the same. I can say with clarity that freedom has never been SO under threat as it is now, not only because the government can come in and change your own words and remove them as they see fit, but because of the terms "misinformation" and"disinformation", but WHO decides this? I can see Big Tech's involvement but who among you are aware of the infiltration of WEF members, of whom Big Tech plays a leading role, in terminology used to discredit certain viewpoints. Just as the CIA coined the term "conspiracy theorist" to describe someone who thinks outside of the mainstream narrative and make them out to be "kooks", so too have Google, You Tube Twitter etc, who are all partners in this globalist agenda for a NWO where there will be no choices, no ownership of anything including your shoes, and certainly no privacy or freedom! If we lose the right to voice our own opinions today they will be gone tomorrow and NEVER return! If we don't want to live in a smart grid with cameras recording our every movement as it already is in China and adopt their credit score system, we all need to think about what it will be like for our children and THEIR children if we don't now say that enough is enough! Thanks for reading this.

Neither. My love was the best and we loved each other having 52 years of happy marriage before she died 13 years ago

Definately take a stand and demand more rights. My place of work has warned that if we unionize, we will be fired.

does anyone think I can make 60,000 points in one month??!!! lets see shall we.. Your monthly earnings:AugustSeptemberOctoberNovember24,821 points34,498 points44,648 points57,389 points

my old man's dog named "peka", and the horse named "paka " Those two were inseparable. when the old man passed away, I got to look after them, and they look after me. Paka fell into the hole and died of his injuries, I was heartbroken, and Peka did not want to leave the place where I burry Paka.she was so sad For two weeks, she stayed there.sadly she died of heartbroken. i burried her on the same spot, and planted acoconut tree on it, that coconut tree is still standing, 50years old coconut tree

No of course a Higher Price does not mean better value. Take a trip into one of those very up-market Department Stores and those dinky little Boutiques offering, supposedly Designer Gear, Exclusive Brands by Haute Couture Houses of Fashion. Grossly over Priced garments but ALL Made in China, India, Bangladesh and other slave-to super-low Income countries. We went in to one of those Department Stores, up the escalator and into the Women's Fashion Floor. There at the top of the escalator was a display of a well-know designer. Faded Jeans with selectively placed "Tears", Price? A not-so-cool $695.00! The top? It looked liked a woman's vest-cum-Tee shirt with a tiny single row of "lace" around the neckline. The price? An equally not-so-cool $435.00! My female companion unbuttoned the top couple of buttons on her blouse to reveal an identical top with exactly the same single row of "lace". Price at the Local Market? $15.00. Our local Op Shop sells faded Levi Jeans with naturally worn, strategically sited holes - just like the Designer jeans at $695 for just $10! - I know this because they were my jeans! The only reason I was not still wearing them was because I don't think it is appropriate for Mature Age Men and Women to dress as if they were in their late teens! Brand, Price and Designer Labels mean Nothing.

Playing hopscotch on the pavement outside our house, and rambling through the bush at our holiday shack. Finding unseen caverns and playing in them.

love and still have the many items my sons, and now also grandkids have made for us through the years, especially 2 items our 2nd grandson made me 5 years ago, a wooden stool for the caravan which I still use in the kitchen to reach my top shelves, and a walking stick made from a tree branch, and it has come to be very handy since my fall and awaiting a knee replacement thank you Noah, when you gave it to me you said for when I get old, well that time has come

Same here so I have had to unsubscribe from a lot of businesses now because it has become too annoying,I mean I don't need 3-4 emails from the same company reminding me there is a big sale on in the one day,I am not stupid lol...But yes I do shop a lot online because it is more convenient although I will only shop with trusted companies now after being ripped off one too many times.

It doesn't matter where you live as there is always some risk. Weather is only one of the risks. Volcanoes, earthquakes, landslides, rock falls, forest fires to name some things.

A friend is someone who is always there for you to give comfort and support. We go through life but really you can count your "Best" friends on one hand. So many people these days are fake.

Have you noticed the decrease in weight and increase in price? Some frozen chips are 900g instead of 1kg. Biscuits have risen but the amount or size has dropped. Grow your own veges and you'll be surprised how much $$$ you save.

When all these countries get into space...in twos or threes...look down on the tiny planet...all work together, with a mixture of many nations... for the common good...they all bond...look at those happy faces on the space station...that is magic!!...that doesn't happen down here on Earth...and it gives me hope...nothing is too much bother...they would risk death for each other....maybe we should all be up there for a while..

No none. Wish I had it might motivate me to exercise more. The most I do is walk every day for approx. 30 min. with my dog. Used to love dancing the Rock and Roll. Now that kept me fit. Sometimes I wish I could go back to it again.

Take 20 litres of tap water, add a kilo of beer wort and a kilo of sugar, sprinkle a bit of yeast over it and wait a month, then bottle it... Then wait another month and drink it... Yes, tap water really does taste great..

We don't travel overseas at all, have our own Campervan, I always wanted to see my own country and we have seen a lot of it, and a lot more to go, Australia is so beautiful and such a diverse landscape, we are in wonderment all the time. No desire to travel overseas, especially since the pandemic.

Don't see how the effect is natural when it's not natural??? And I always find it amusing when people put on makeup to get a natural look! I don't understand why people put makeup on everyday. Wouldn't you want to do it on a special occasion so you look "Wow" and not your usual daily routine?

You have one or two friends from school. Then you meet lots of people at tafe, Uni, work etc. I think the best friend you can have is a cat or dog because they’re more loyal than humans!

I saw her across a field of clover. Our eyes met. She had the the most beautiful eyes I had ever seen. She was only young but the look in her eyes was enough. They my father put her into the back of the truck with the rest of the heifers and drove them off to market. Such is life.

Let’s just be humans, in the end when will we learn & be one race, I guess we just need an alien invasion to realise who we are, Happiness within.

I'm not going to say too much on this subject because enough has been said about it already but I will say that I agree with you Kimberly H.Yes a woman should be in charge of her own body but if you are in a relationship then the discussion of having children or not having children should be talked about between the both of you,not just one sided.If a woman who is single decides to not have children then that is her choice and her choice alone,no one should force her in to motherhood if she does not want to be a mother.I have a few friends who have never had children and they don't regret it.

I had to go into forced retirement due to a chronic injury and illness. I was lucky my late husband left me some money as I can't get any government benefits because I'm too young. My illness isn't recognised by centrelink so I do not get any money. I'd go back to work if it was possible.

become a license, bondable, and professional house sitter at the local, regional, national, and international level

I had a dog that was 8 when she tore a ligament in her back leg . We put her on a product called "biovet joint suplement" mixed into hamburger, within a month she walking on her own six months she was walking up and down stairs again on her own in a yr she was running around almost like when she was young . We kept her on it until she died at 14 1/2. No arthritis.

Have never wanted them and when I see what some people pay for them I feel they are being pretentious, they could do so much better with the money like helping charities

I think everyone is very naive if they think IT will be the gift to humans. Why do we need it to do our housework or open doors or 1000's of other things we humans can do for ourselves. Yes it can be helpful in operations but controlled by humans just the same. SciFi is coming true as whatever man thinks of he will eventually create and giving AI the tools to teach themselves is a dangerous road to take. I think scary times are ahead in the future with the scientists just going too far. It is already doing more than delivery of Pizza or cleaning etc. People are talking to them as if they are real live humans and some of these robots actually look very close to that.

Tamz, you are answering your own question. If you have been able to "survive" without this shallow friend in your life continue to do so. She has made contact with you, what could that reason be? Did you recently win the Lotto, is she sick, unwell, and needing support, has she apologized or is there anything to apologize for/ There are just so many questions but my initial reaction is continue on without her.

So what scientific research has come up with this conclusion. What absolute rubbish? On every flight here, we are given a sealed bottle of water.

Absolutely - You can't let them get away with bad behaviour or they will take full advantage of it and you! Let them know you are in charge and should be respected. If their parents don't like you disciplining them, they don't have to leave them with you. And they probably leave them with you because they can't control them and hope you will teach them some respect.

Depends on what your talents are I guess. I don't really have any talents unless you count dealing with people. I hate it though! I'm a Legal Executive so I deal with people all the time so I guess I have kind of used my talent.

IF I WAS ONE MINUTE LATE FINISHING. I WOULD HAVE BEEN SACKED. I WAS A NEWS VISION EDITOR, IF I DID NOT HAVE THE LEAD STORY IN THE SYSTEM WITHOUT SAYING IT WAS NOT READY HELL TO PAY. FORTUNATELY THAT NEVER HAPPENED. THE CLOSEST I CAME I REMOTED THE MACHINE AS THE READER WAS READING THE INTRO.

Is reaching out for therapy (mental health) - a good idea? YES! Is this individual at the point - that he or she knows that they need to converse with a mental health specialist/professional? Does this individual have a 'health plan' that covers depression? If not, can this individual afford to visit a mental health specialist/professional on a regular basis for 'an extended period of time'?

I only went to one camp and it was by the sea were we did a lot of things it was the only camp there was when I was at school it was a Portsea victoria

15 minute meal in my microwave! I don't cook anymore. Grocery Outlet Bargain Market gets meals in that only cost $1-$2 each, and they're very good, and inexpensive! Latest find, Jenny Craig meals for $.99 each! ;-D

I grew up watching Indy and grateful they haven't replaced him. Unlike most Hollywood films that butcher 'originals' to be more PC. Cheers to you Mr Harrison Ford.

I'm sorry, I know it's a natural process (for most women, though not all can do it), but I really don't want to have to see it.

You can also put on rainy day wear and go puddle stomping and for walks with the umbrella. Rain doesn't have to be a sentence to the indoors. Walk an indoor mall. They usually have little people areas to climb on soft big animals or ride a little train or carousel indoors. At least the malls in America have those features. Hopefully there too.

In Armadale we have a shopping centre near us where the whole front pathway of the shops is sloping. It is hairy when trying to negotiate this and feeling like you are going to tip over. One shop in the same suburb is renowned for having boxes and boxes of goods stuck in their aisles. Trying to negotiate this last year, I knocked over a pile of boxes and smashed at least one large ornament and probably more in those boxes. It is so frustrating! Have not been back in there since but have observed from outside the shop that their aisles are slightly better, but far from acceptable yet!. On the other hand my Woolworths in Kelmscott has wide clear aisles free from obstructions. And apart from that, they are always helpful and considerate. Most Woolies shops have the same wide aisles and clear pathways and on behalf of us with wheelchairs, may I say a huge thank you to them. How can we fix the problem - stick all the powers that be in wheelchairs and send them off for a day to shop! Perhaps that might wake them up. Edit: Wow, I just noticed some of the comments on here and am really gobsmacked! We do not expect perfection, but let me just say that money can be found for many minority groups who are always in the media, we can find money to float a republic, have a debate about putting an first nation voice in parliament, give pay rises to politicians who don't deserve them (some do), and fund hundreds and thousands of dollars worth of fireworks, political lunches and heaps of other selfish causes. But a ramp into a shopping centre or an even entry - wow, aren't we selfish and entitled???!!! Hope some of you don't get to the stage where you face some of the problems we do!

So is my house … stuff from my daughter still here after she got married and moved out over 6 years ago … toys from grandchildren that they have grown out of … and oodles of other stuff that just seems to accumulate over time … I just haven’t got the energy to sort it out and get rid of it ??

Forest gump high on the list ,just try to remember all those different types of shrimp ?? bubba . Defo school of rock,did love Shaun of the dead too

Don't make your work your life's priority. Employers don't give a stuff. Do your work diligently and don't take work home. Your own health and wellbeing is more important, and those who you love.

If the Federal Government would simply ban all Foreign Investment is Housing and scrap Negative Gearing for All Housing this would, reportedly, open up 10s of 1000s of Houses, Flat etc. for rent. It is also reported that those who own Housing - both Foreign and Australian Residents - deliberately keep their properties un-occupied for Tax Purposes. We hear Politicians, the Unions and others constantly complaining about how Multi-National Corporations pay Little or No Tax on their revenues in Australia - Successive Federal Governments - both ALP and Coalition - have failed to close off the mechanisms these organisations use to avoid paying any Tax. But never a word from any of them about the deliberate, but Legal, rorts, scams, cons - call them what you will, used by Politicians, Union Bosses and others to avoid paying tax on their own Housing Properties which they deliberately keep Un-Tenanted. One Federal ALP MP reportedly has $12 million invested in housing - he conveniently "forgot" to list a $1miilion property in his Asset Disclosure Statement to the Federal Parliament and his mates, both ALP and Coalition, in the very same Parliament did NOTHING. They won't do anything to put a stop to these scams because they are all up to their necks in this sort of Corruption and are Operating a Protection Racket for themselves. Faint hope it may, be but maybe the new wave of Independent, so-called Teal - Members of the Federal Parliament - unless they have their snouts in the same trough of Corruption - will force the Albanese ALP Federal Government to actually get off it's self-satisfied, greedy backside and address this issue.

My teeth are falling to pieces and since we were scammed out of $53,500 things have been tough making ends meet, I have asked WINZ 3 times for help but they keep saying you have too much in the bank, we only have enough to cover the mortgage, power, rates etc but no help. If I go to the dentist the only place the money can come from is our food money so I am well and truly stuffed. But they can put people who play the system in emergency accommodation and pay $1,000 a week. Plus help them pay rent arrears and repairs for their last house they trashed!!

Here in South Australia, if you are the first person to report a faulty street light and they don't fix it within 10 days you can get a GSL payment of $25. GSL stands for Guaranteed Service Level. We don't seem to have too many problems with street lights around where I live.

Yes, we should look after our own needs, we have a lot of poor people here as well who need to cook for their families and keep them warm. A lot of it is being "donated" to hostile parts and they are laughing at us while we scrummage to eek out a living and pay top price for EVERYTHING!

I had more friends in my 20s Noe I have a handful and they are truly close and trusted The numbers are no longer important it's the quality

I was once hacked years ago when I had my businesses. The police told me that one method most used by hackers is entering people's computers through their MSN...ICQ or YAHOO messengers ....The police advised me to delete all messengers from my computer ..... When I was hacked I was hacked on MSN messenger whilst unknowingly chatting to the person who hacked me, whilst she was in my computer sending copies of my business files to everyone on my friend's list

My father has lived in the same house but I've barely talked to him because he would always show anger for no reason and out of nowhere. So that made me distant from him. He also enabled my mom's abuse.

What a crazy idea, next people will want chocolate to be sold all year round... ohh wait.... Plus think of all the money shops would lose out on. After all cant charge a ridiculous amount because its 'only available for a short time" PS super markets and bakerys out there, feel free to leave the cross of my bun and save me a few bucks a packet

How about a Vet joke? If you lock your dog and your partner in the boot of your car and leave it locked for for10 minutes. Guess who is pleased to see you when you let them out? Apologies everyone it's just my warped sense of humour.

i have heard some beautiful Latino songs, I don't understand the words but the way the music flows is just awesome, and having visited Japan some of the songs I heard are pretty cool too. You really don't have to know the words to appreciate the music/songs..

Me like to buy cheap things on very good special at shop and eat it before it goes out of date. This is usually the same day I buy it. Me have to eat it very fast.

It is so hard sometimes as you bring your children up to be fair and honourable and it is so hard to see what the $$$ signs can do to some of them at times. Trust certainly goes out the window with those that are done wrong.

No apologies, Johana C but I thinkyour ideas are nonsense. I went to an all boys school and if anything, thanks to the plethora of paedophile teachers - including female ones, who were the biggest bullies of all - we came out as misandrists. Yes, in some ways Co-ed schools are better but let us not forget that girls can be every bit as cruel, nasty, vindictive - especially towards other girls - Their bullying techniques have, somehow, been developed into an art which is passed down from one year to the next and they take that through to their adult lives. Both demales and males will develop into decent Women and Men if they have the example set for them by their parents. Sadly today Parents would rather rake in buckets loads of money - half of which they waste on After School Care for THEIR children - than actually rearing THEIR children themselves. So children come out of school knowing nothing more than how to bully and are set to be misogynists and misandrists their entire lives.

Shaun Micaulef: brilliant, discerning and humble bloke. We had a brief chat at a small newsstand in Melbourne's CBD. His intelligence shone through his eyes intensely. He is also extremely handsome in real life. I was at Edward's Lake (Melbourne Vic) for a Labor Party rally with my parents as a kid. It rained so the venue had to be held indoors and the Great Gough nodded as he walked by. That man had the most powerful presence I have ever come across. What a man!

Not applicable in WA; our Premier thinks the sun shines from his bum and he won't get up an hour earlier for anyone!! :-)

I've slept with the same snorer my parents sleep with: Charlie (Heinz59er, dog), is the loudest sleeper; he snores, farts, barks, yips, grunts, growls, yelps, and even sleepwalks!
