I?m a grey haired old fart and natural born cynic. Any post where somebody tells me of their ?bravery? or untested actions in any situation, the Wanker factor detector fires up. These posters are trying to impress only themselves, because the Wanker factor detector immediately dismisses what...

Just an observation The woman who stood there holding the phone and trying to talk the killer down, or the women who went to the body to assist and prevented further mutilation, showed more balls than all the keyboard warriors with their guns (and freudian threats/dreams) on here

I love pronouncements on the affairs of foreign country from those that probably don?t even own a passport, let alone wandered around the country they are making observations about. My observations; Seoul is geared for conventional warfare; there are sufficient bomb shelters to cope with twice...

These ads are shown on Prime Time TV in Australia! This is a compilation of 20 years of ads and loses the impact of each individual 30 second ad. They cover a number of different themes which gets lost in the compilation The most effective for me was the one of the mother rocking and...

Mark What Australian papers/articles are you referring to? However, rather than doing your usual cut and paste, give a small background of the writer and the source of the article (i.e. whether it is a News Limited paper or not?fair bet it will be) This is something that quality Australian...

There is a program on Australian TV called the Gruen Transfer which explores the areas of marketing and advertising. Every week they have a segment called The Pitch, where they ask two advertising agencies to pitch the unsellable, such as drinking urine or euthanasia for the above 80 year olds...

Sounds like an arse about version of preferential voting (or instant runoff voting) It would appear to have the same effect in as preferential voting in the long run, but I would be seriously concerned about 6 votes.

As an Australian taxpayer? Fuck the money; it was done because it was the right thing! Rescuing fair young maidens in distress is the stuff of heroes everywhere. Rescue her if she is alive or recover her body if she is dead. Rescue of sailors in the Southern Ocean is a bit of habit...

I have a bit of an understanding of PBS? Australia has 2 Government owned TV/radio networks. As well as the ABC, it also has SBS, which is the network that reflects our ?multicultural? nature. SBS daily shows PBS news and current affairs programmes (as it does news from about another 20...

The UK has had radio and TV licensing for years (1920?s?). It exists to pays for the BBC, which would be considered by most to be the epitome of free and fair electronic reporting in the world. Why did Mr Bailey conjure this link out of thin air? Why did Mr Bailey determine something which has...

He's spouting Bullshit! With a TD5 manual I can get 1000 km (620 miles) out of a tank (fumes at the end); translates to about 29 miles per imperial gallon, but then an imperial gallon is 4.54 litres and a US gallon is 3.85 litres. About 24 miles per US gallon The 300 Tdi I had got about the...

It?s frightening when you are doing 150 kph in the slow lane and have to pass a convoy of tanks doing about 60 kph in the same lane. You have to make a judgement as to how may you can pass in the time it takes that tiny little black spot in the rear vision mirror turns into the Beemer about a...

Funny thing is that the British are probably complaining about this as being the result of the insidious and pervasive pollution of the proud British culture by American influences
