They can't keep counting on Abbot sticking his R.M.s in his gob time after time. It's a weak defensive strategy and come election time it will be exposed. The Labor Party need a Napoleon and I don't...

Wow! some of the giants of the Labor Party, from when it actually was a Labor party. I'm impressed.

He was a giant.

Possibly those factors will apply without NewsLtd to stir the pot. I certainly hope so. Not that Labor is any great shakes as a party but they're a huge improvement over Abbott.

...and I'm just about to join you Pete. :D

It's kind of a private joke Chip. One of my mates used to be the Manager of the prison that we used to walk past on our way to school. We've recently re-established contact and we had a few laughs...

If it wasn't for the pain-killing effect I'd hate it too. I've been invited for "a few drinks" :D at the Rocks, but I doubt I'll be going. :(
I might manage a few drinks in the garden though! :D

I'm still here Pete! I had a wonky spell for a couple of days. I was walking like a shot duck and had no idea what was going on! I feel a lot better but it's left me weakened. Can't help thinking...

Stick'em up!

I agree with your diagnosis Dr. Skuthorp ,from personal experience. I've had a very mentally fuzzy feeling for most of the day. It's not a nice feeling in any way and it's not like being pleasantly...

The alternative will probably be either Methadone or Fentanyl. I've had Fentanyl and don't particularly want it again and I won't touch Methadone at all. Pethedine is supposed to be the doctor's...

Ha! I could have used some of that eye candy then! My (most recent) doctor decided, against my better judgement, to raise my regular morphine dose from 100mg. to 160mg. as I had been asking for...

I seem to have coughed and broken a rib!

No, but it's stinking hot here instead! :D

Slowly but surely I am catching up with my emails, Facebook messages and forum posts Spin. I've been sitting here helplessly knowing what people were thinking. :(
My apologies to the forum for...

Don't you have something better to do than insult a couple of people who haven't been members of the forum for many months?

This thread is THE most inappropriate place to be doing it, that's for...

I use a wireless keyboard (and wireless mouse) in conjunction with a laptop. One of the nurses dropped the keyboard onto the laptop and it stuffed the software for the mouse completely. It took me a...

It's years since I've been to a local Ag show or watched any dressage but it was always a great day out.
Come to think of it, it's quite a few years since I've been on a horse. Something else I'll...

I have a friend from Airdrie who delights in telling me the weather conditions there. That's because she bought a trailer home in Arizona and when it starts getting too cold in Canada she heads south...

..and follow through.

Yeah, ya gotta watch out for them words, they can be dangerous.

Would I be right in guessing that Obama could simply pardon all of them before leaving office, "in the national interest" or some such twaddle?

:D:D:D

DISgracefully thank you!

As you can see, I have returned to the land of the interwebs. The fatted calf may now be killed and it's barbecue for all. DavidG is bringing the beer. :D
After only a...

Getting some morphine! Wheee!
It's being provided by the heavily unionized work force here in the hospice. We don't get flat screen TVs though. :(

Back to bed now....going fishing in Rose Bay...

So we can spend that extra tax (like the cast of "Housos") on flat screen TVs and drugs while you have to work your arse off to pay for our extravagant lifestyle. You'll have to work so hard it will...

Oh you poor, poor thing. I'm in floods of tears just thinking about all those dastardly personal attacks on you. Just sobbing my heart out at the unfairness of it all. :-(

My grandfather worked as a ship's carpenter in one of those shipyards. He was in the final years of his apprenticeship until WW1 intervened. When he returned from the war 5 years later he still had...

Jamie will be singing "Kumbaya" with the rest of us humanitarians soon!

On and on and on about the same subject! I just have to wonder about theses preoccupations. Why don't you take some pics of your garden and put them up in the Gardening thread instead?

Wow! A second term! I'm very conscious of the great honour of a second term and I'll do my best to uphold the standard set by previous BRoTMs.
If there are no objections I would like to continue...

I think I put most of it straight back on.:D I was 97 kg. so I could afford to take SOME off but not that much! Fortunately my appetite returned when I went into the hospice. At the time I was beyond...

If there are no objections I would like the gardening thread to continue as "Theme of the Month" I'm enjoying it enormously and I suspect many others are too.

It's great to see you again John. How long was your banishment to the gulag for?

.
I lost 22 Kg. in 3 weeks. It was easy.

Yep, I reckon Braidwood's a conservative farming community. Offhand, I can't think of too many Labor or Greens farming communities, although I'm sure there's a few. If they existed they would be few...

Braidwood...Farming and rural activities are still one of the main industries in town,

Sorry mate, if you're referring to Rupert he's an American citizen now and he's all yours! :D

Thank you for all the pics of Japan twodot. I almost feel as though I'm there in one of my favourite places again. japan is a gardeners delight.

Thank you for an excellent post Waddie. Your situation in the US is mirrored in Australia BTW.
I had a couple of friends who were accused of murder. Fortunately they were white and middle class and...

I'm in favour of body cams. They will protect police officers and other citizens alike.
I'm also in favour of investigations into possible police misconduct being carried out by investigators who...

Come on, prove it then. If you read it (in the local paper perhaps?) then it's a document and we should be able to read it. Where is it?
As usual, you have no evidence whatsoever.
Who owns the land?

Professors? What professors?
And just what do theses "some" propose to do?
It's all a furphy. It's far more likely that it was the land owner. In fact....I know beyond any reasonable doubt that...

Quite predictably, when you're challenged on a ridiculous assertion, you fail to provide any evidence whatsoever and immediately resort to name calling!
:D:D:D
Hilarious.:D

It's kind of like a prosecutor in a court. The prosecutor makes an assertion (as you did) that the defendants (the so-called "greenies") are guilty. The prosecutor is the required to back the...

Now your blaming the "greenies",are you? Where's the evidence?

It's "families" now is it? How touching. It's a pity that concern wasn't shared with the many families who depended on GMH and the other car companies for a livelihood.

Gina Rineharts work? It's naive to think she is motivated by anything other than making more money out of us. To her, we're just a herd of livestock. She's pushing for a special tax haven in northern...

At first I was a little surprised at your post Ian. we lefties are supposed to be opposed to the draft, but now that you've explained why it makes sense to me.
My father was a lifer like most of his...
