Rostrum!
Hello
And welcome to our first Rostrum open discussion thread on The Daily Trash. I hope you are all enjoying the new home.
Personally I feel a lot happier now that we’ve dispensed with the formality of The Farnham Report.
Well it’s been an interesting week in this place we call “the world,” with Julian Assange (who?) seeking refuge at the Embassy of Ecuador in London.
Ecuador. Where even is it…?
It’s a strange choice of destination for the world’s most self-publicising press freedom crusader.
The small South American republic sits in 104th spot in the press freedom index and there have been recent government-enforced shutdowns in the broadcast media.
Nevertheless, Julian is seeking diplomatic asylum to stop him being sent to Sweden to answer accusations of rape and assault, which he denies.
Jules has lashed out at the Gillard Government rejecting claims that he has been offered diplomatic assistance from the government.
He says that he has mounted his bid because his “native Australia” had made an “effective declaration of abandonment” by refusing to intervene in his planned extradition.
He has accused the US ambassador to Australia and Julia Gillard of using “slimy rhetoric” when it comes to government claims that he has been receiving “ongoing consular assistance.”
And in Breaking News (BREAKING NEWS!), we can reveal that there has been another ZOMBIE ATTACK in Florida, with reports coming in that another black naked man Charles Baker has attached and chewed off the arm of another man.
But there’s no need to be alarmed.
Have a lovely weekend.

Oh how everyone laughed when I mentioned some time ago that I considered the MRRT unconstitutional. Oh and how people sneered when I said that I had spoken to a QC friend who shared that view.
Well obviously another QC shares the view because today we hear this…..

Why didn’t Assange flee to the Australian embassy and seek asylum there?
Oh how everyone laughed when I mentioned some time ago that I considered the MRRT unconstitutional
Shouldn’t you be waiting for the HC decision before having a gloat?

The more this Assange saga “extends” I think he’s a publicity seeking twit …
Ecuador – Quito is quite interesting Guayaquil isn’t. Banos has hot water and nice food. There’s some good surf along the coast. Beer is cheap.
No, TB, I expressed it as an opinion. Not as a fact. The very fact of it being the subject now of a High Court challenge confirms it was an opinion of reasonable credibility, and makes fools of those who were at the time so quick to laugh.
I can highly recommend this red for any weekend imbibers…

Canberra is apparently a gay bubble.
‘Nick Clegg, Britain’s Deputy Prime Minister, has admitted that the Rio+20 deal is “disappointing.” He blamed China and other developing countries that have huge reserves of coal and want to continue using fossil fuels to grow, for failing to back plans for the green economy. “The political significance of Rio is that the G77 nations are antagonistic to our European ideas on the green economy,” said Mr Clegg. He said Europe can no longer take the lead in such international negotiations because power is shifting “from West to East”.’

G’day ToSY! Now, back to those questions on family and occupation, mate … what were they again? (Useful for my research into “blog posting” …) 🙂
Alan Turing would be 100 today …
Next time you think your hotel bill is too high you might want to consider this…
A husband and wife are travelling by car from Brisbane to Melbourne.
After almost ten hours on the road, they’re too tired to continue and they decide to stop for a rest. They stop at a nice hotel and take a room, but they only plan to sleep for four hours and then get back on the road.
When they check out four hours later, the desk clerk; hands them a bill for $450.00.
The man explodes and demands to know why the charge is so high. He tells the clerk although it’s a nice hotel; the rooms certainly aren’t worth $450.00.
When the clerk tells him $450.00 is the standard rate, the man insists on speaking to the Manager.
The Manager appears, listens to the man, and then explains that the hotel has an Olympic-sized pool and a huge conference centre that were available for the husband and wife to use.
‘But we didn’t use them,’ the man complains.
‘Well, they are here, and you could have,’ explains the Manager. He goes on to explain they could have taken in one of the shows for which the hotel is famous. ‘The best entertainers perform here,’ the Manager says.
‘But we didn’t go to any of those shows,’ complains the man again.
‘Well, we have them, and you could have,’ the Manager replies.
No matter what amenity the Manager mentions! the man replies, ‘But we didn’t use it!’
The Manager is unmoved, and eventually the man gives up and agrees to pay. He writes a cheque and gives it to the Manager.
The Manager is surprised when he looks at the cheque. ‘But sir,’ he says, ‘this cheque is only made out for $50.00.’
‘That’s correct,’ says the man. ‘I charged you $400 for sleeping with my wife.’
‘But I didn’t!’ exclaims the Manager.
‘Well, too bad,’ the man replies. ‘She was here and you could have!’
Smart folk them Queenslanders, hey, Tosy …?
What did you say you did for a living?
TB and Oh how everyone laughed when I mentioned some time ago that I considered the MRRT unconstitutional
Shouldn’t you be waiting for the HC decision before having a gloat? See s99 of the Constitution. It’s what WA and Twiggy are running with “a preference” to one State over another. It will all get down to whether our minerals and resources belong to a state government or belong to the people of Australia.
I didn’t.
Geez, TB. Everyone knows he’s an ambulance chasing grave digging debt collecting Richmond Supporter! 🙄
Don’t you pay attention?!
But seriously.
I sympathise with not wanting to divulge professional status.
Internet peoplez tend to have a way of taking what little crumbs that they know about a man & filling in the blanks according to their own imagination. Fuckwits like scaper et al, for example, who thought he’d deduced (incorrectly, coz he’s dumb as dogshit) my address & employer…& from that extrapolated my role in employment (so far off the mark it was just plain stupid)…then try & use their false deductions to insult & attack.
I have a hunch that Tony would rather let his points do the talking. I have no idea what he does, that’s his business & I’m comfortable with individuals only divulging what they’re happy with. I suspect that whatever merciless profession he’s engaged in, he thinks that if it was publicised it would become a wedge against his comments.
You may have noticed that what can seem like jovial, friendly blogging communities can turn into spiteful viper nests on occasion! 😯
For all we know, Tony may be a nom de plume for Steve Bracks…& that’s fine.
Some excellent points (& counterpoints) about Assange seeking asylum in Ecuador, here…
http://anonymouslefty.wordpress.com/2012/06/21/indefinite-detention-without-charge-equals-a-country-that-does-not-deserve-to-have-prisoners-extradited-to-it/
In particular, there is a great rationalisation & history of why Assange legitimately fears extradition to the US from Sweden.
The campaign against the man is a sideways approach at trying to destroy whistleblowing, imo.
*hahaha, they called splatter a troll, in comments, funny.
C’arn the Pies. 😉
Nooooooooooooooooooo!
* Who ever loses that one, The Crows win & go top. West Coast & Collingwood will neutralise each other.
Being called a troll at ‘lefty’ is amusing, this must be a distinguishing characteristic of Daily Trash reporters.
Min, See s99 of the Constitution … yep, I read Forescue’s affidavit yesterday … my comment was aimed at, James’ “gloating” over simply having an opinion … something we do … have an opinion, that is … and an opinion not yet proved in court … a strange postion for a lawyer to take, methinks …
… any law can be appealed constitutionally (why would you argue that?) … in fact I have documentation somewhere, that the Federation itself, is illegal … therefore the Constitution and any instruments therefrom (ie the High Court) are non-entities …

Aw, c’mon, HD, that’s like saying people would have a go at me ’cause they know how old I am … just wouldn’t happen … that’s why I post here … 🙄
Seriously, my argument for providing personal information is twofold … I believe it provides foundation and reason for particular statements (even though I could be bullshitting) … I’ve got nothing to hide … in fact these days I’d make the perfect pollie … no skeletons in my closet …
Looks like they’re giving a troll the door prize at the cafe. If true…its a disgrace.
Fuckwits like scaper et al, for example … </i.
They need to be on guard at, CW, then … I see he got past the bouncer(s) … 😉
“Currently we are experiencing the lowest temperature rise of a 17-year series since satellite temperature data began. At the moment the warming rate is a minsicule 0.04°C per decade; this is an absolute record low. A few years ago the figure was up to 0.26°C per decade, i.e. more than six times higher.”

TB, fear not. I’m keeping a good eye on the blog while M* is unwell.
It’s interesting that so many on the blogs have decided it’s fine to politicise the recent asylum seeker tragedy. I’m at a loss to understand how people can be so mean spirited.
Perhaps someone could explain the difference between saying “another boat, another policy failure” and “stop the boats”. It’s the difference between a 3 word slogan and one that’s 5.
The fact is that both major parties have used this issue for the most base of political motivations, both have played on xenophobia, and it’s no use pretending that the ALP has better motivations than the Liberals.
Though barrackers do this.
I’m at a loss to understand how people can be so mean spirited.
My only conclusion, ToM, is greed for power and control … the downfall of the human race … 😦
TB, fear not.
I fear not, Min … 🙂
Yes TB, I find it quite repulsive that some people are still claiming relative levels in the moral high ground.
It’s time for them to say – “our lot is duplicitous, but a little less so than the others”
Well this couldn’t happen in Australia … could it! Thanks Mr Howard …

Makes you wonder what the outcome could have been … 😯

… er … ToM, your doing exactly what you are accusing others of doing … politicising a human tragedy … 🙄
FMD!
12 days in Taswegia (first two weeks of september) as follows:
3 nights Hobart
2 nights Strahan (pronounced “strawn”, I believe)
1 night Cradle Mt (pronounced “cradle mountain”, I believe)
2 nights Stanley
2 nights Launceston
2 nights Swansea
1 night Hobart
Hired a Nissan X Trail (or “similar”)
What do the experts reckon?
32 nights Hobart24 nights Strahan (pronounced “strawn”, I believe)13 night Cradle Mt (pronounced “cradle mountain”, I believe)2 nights Stanley
21 nights Launceston2 nights Swansea1 night HobartI don’t think Tasmanian towns are very interesting.
ToM, no “towns” in Australia are “interesting” in themselves (maybe Charters Towers, Kalgoorlie) …
The “towns” are where we “sleep” … but I’m guessing that there are “things” to “see” and/or “do” nearby, the towns … maybe I should have been more “explicit”
I’m getting the feeling that you are actually some kind of control freak … in your defence though, I did ask for opinions … however expert …
Why do I bother …
Well TB, I just think you’re spending too much time driving around. That’s my expert opinion.
—————————
Surf is nice here. I think if all those people got a board, they’d never want to get on a boat and head for the cold Australian water.
Reb, if you’re about, you might recall that “we” decided you were a North supporter. Now would be a good time to adopt that and say a big HI to Toilet.
As the anniversary of Rudd’s knifing draws near, I have little further to add.

TB
I agree with ToM . You should spend a little longer at Strachan as you’ll likely do the cruise up the river on one day to see Sarah Island convict settlement (the joint that the 2 inmates escaped from and one ate the other) plus you’ll do a bit of a bush walking for Huon Pine. Great seafood I recall from 15 years ago.
Plus Cradle Mountain is definitely more than one night. You’ll really be annoyed with yourself otherwise. Make sure you take a decent camera as stacks of wilderness. Plus take some apples etc for the possums who will open the doors to your cabin and barge on in. There used to be plenty of Tasmanian Devils there too as they used to live under the main amenities building and come out in daylight. I assume its still accommodation in cabins only with one main building.
Launceston is nice but not a lot there. And of course Hobart is rather nice down by the docks.
We never got there but Freycinet National Park is supposed to be outstanding as well
Reb, Collingwood..we’re now top of the ladder..and I know that you always like to be on a winner. 😉
ToM and Wally … seriously, thanks for your advice … we’ve already booked the cabins at each place but we thought we’d get to see a fair cross section of the island that way …
.. as for travelling, we both enjoy car travel (and we do come from Queensland, so distance is not an issue for either of us 🙂 ) …
Yep, will take both my video and still (might talk The Minister into a new DSLR, I still operate a Sony DSCV1, I bought over 8 years ago, and still … a pun! … going strong!) … just looking at images of Taswegia anywhere we go should be interesting and I’m looking forward to the epicuniary delights promised in reviews of Tasmania …
The latest tragedy involving asylum seekers has certainly crystallised the debate. It’s apparently all Abbott’s fault, or perhaps Gillard’s.
I’m not in favour of off shore processing, and I don’t really see any reason to change my mind. I would be more inclined to accept temporary protection visas than sending children to Malaysia to Nauru. On the rationale of both parties it is the prospect of permanent settlement that is lure.
So I really don’t understand all the name calling, and the politically motivated urging of some compromise about Malaysia vs Nauru. Permanent settle is the only “business model” of people smugglers.
Take a jumper, TB. A nice bone cable knit should suit you nicely.
James, do I wear it under or over my suit jacket?

As I said when it all began in Egypt … “be careful what you wish for”
Yes, you did say that TB.
Interesting times for Egypt, and the Middle East.
… and, I should think, the rest of us … ToM
… I’m just glad I’ve been to Egypt … it’s a bit unnerving to see a coach blown up at Cairo Museum, that you sat in three months earlier … and in the same car park slot!
I’m also glad my son-in-law will be ourt of Saudi Arabia permanently in about four months!
I was just rambling through my email archives from my business (yeah, I keep everthing!) and came across an email I sent to a minesite OH&S Manager I used to know … he was in Nashos at the same base, at the same time, as I was (19th intake Singleton 1970!) and we didn’t know until we were chatting one day in 2004! Our service numbers end 202 and 303! very weird!
Anyway … this is for Toillette and any others of course! (apologies re >>>> I just couldn’t be bothered …)
Hope the blogmaster is well, the Melburnian waters are known to upset the stomach.
About three weeks ago all commercial activity came to a grinding halt in my town and everyone was mystified…was it the tax or contagion from afar which had spooked the punters?

“… it’s a bit unnerving to see a coach blown up at Cairo Museum…”
We had a similar experience in Morocco, upon boarding our otherwise very modern tourist coach I discretely enquired of the tour director what are all these holes alomng the side of the bus ( I already had a pretty good idea). She replied that the bus had recently returned from the “wilds of Algeria”.
“Dee men in Algeria they get very upset sometime and they have a many AK47 in Algeria and many many bullet……………….how you say………….automatic gun …….there are many there…………………”
I replied………….”That’s nice”
I replied………….”That’s nice”
She probably told the American tourists it was for ventilation … they generally believe anything …
I recall climbing into the Great Pyramid of Giza (single file) and I’d become friendly with a guy who owned two Maccas in Arkansas … as a joke I said, “Hey, Ray, when was that earthquake scheduled for this morning?” … he replied, “There’s an earthquake scheduled!” … I still shake my head.
On the way out … I said it again … and some young, Pommie bloke yelled out, “Ya can’t schedule a bloody earthquake!” Just highlights the difference to me … Ray was a great bloke too … sent me a stack of free Maccas vouchers for when 😯 I went to “Arkansaw”!
Well is Frau Merkel keeps this up for much longer the funeral of the Euro should occur by Christmas.
“ 0935 [Dow Jones] Australia’s S&P/ASX 200 may drop sharply Tuesday amid a growing conviction that the upcoming E.U. leaders summit won’t deliver an agreement to ease the region’s debt problems.
IG Markets tips a 0.9% opening fall to 3993, but weakness may be compounded by negative technical indicators. The S&P/ASX 200 formed a “death cross” on Monday, with the 50-day moving average crossing below the 200-day moving average.
A break of the year’s low at 3985 could trigger a test of major Fibonacci retracement support at 3850, according to Dow Jones Newswires technical analysis.
Overnight, German Chancellor Merkel said euro bonds, euro bills and European deposit insurance with joint liability would be “economically wrong and counterproductive.”
Europe’s Stoxx 600 fell 1.5% and the U.S. S&P 500 dived 1.6%, while peripheral European bond yields surged, and U.S. 10-year bond yields fell 7 basis points on safe-haven buying. ADRs suggest BHP (BHP.AU) will fall 1.4% to A$30.62. The Index last closed at 4027.8. “
Overnight, German Chancellor Merkel said euro bonds, euro bills and European deposit insurance with joint liability would be “economically wrong and counterproductive.”
LOL! And what they’ve got now is “productive”???
Hope the blogmaster is well …
In the throes of moving (again?) I believe, egg …
Yes……that bit is rather amusing.
Ya gotta wonder what the Germans are expecting. They are the ones with the cash to back everyone else in the Euro up to an extent. They have the cash because the Euro has conveniently acted as a defacto deflated deutschmark. They have done very nicely out of it. Well now its time for them to either cough up if they want to save it.
Lets face it just look around at how many BMWs, VWs, Audis are on the road these days compared to a little over a decade ago.
BMWs used to be for the well educated professional class.
FMD even people on less that $100,000 can afford a BMW theses days.
The prestige car market once the preserve of the well to do has been totally debased by German greed and avarice.
Europe is stuffed, and only the financially disciplined Germany is holding it together.
Is any more proof needed that it is just stupid to spend your way out of economic difficulty? It really is remarkable that so many of the self professed “left” just don’t get it.
Is there an explanation of why some people seem to think that it is necessary to adopt excessive spending and taxing to have a social conscience?
Europe is indeed stuffed. Donald Rumsfeld referred to it as the “Old World” if I recall correctly and they howled him down.
Germany is indeed the only one that can hold it together. But will they put up the cash is the real question.
I doubt it.
And if they do the “fix” will just be temporary.
Not sure I’d use Rumsfeld as a reference for anything … the Yanks don’t want a united europe it’s not in their commercial interests … it reduces their power and influence in the world.
It really is remarkable that so many of the self professed “left” just don’t get it.
That’s quite a loaded statement and can be tackled from many different angles … least of all that the concept is not a “left” concept … in fact it’s not about “political theory” it’s about “economic theory” … one that was developed after the banks in 1930 were “starved” of capital … that’s where/how the Great Depression was born … which do you prefer?
I’m not in favour of off shore processing, and I don’t really see any reason to change my mind.
Me neither. The two majors in coming up with their inglorious and inhumane ‘solutions’ to an international problem, have validated public xenophobia and prejudice instead of encouraging humanity and compassion.
TB
I agree with tom & jaws
You can drive from hobart to launceston in three hours if you wanted to, but to really see the wild west of tassie you need to stop and travel the river, parks and surrounding areas. I think that the east and west are so different that you need a week of visiting each area. The west is a wonderful natural wilderness while the east is beautiful seaside and you can get drunk (as I did) touring and “tasting” the local wineries. Good times!
We never got there but Freycinet National Park is supposed to be outstanding as well…
Freycinet is beautiful and I love coles bay!
I would say plan a few tassie visits and travel a different section each time, N,S, E, W and then through the centre. There’s plenty to see.
I’m not so certain TB. I did economic history (admittedly over 2 decades ago), and I don’t recall that “the left” was invented in the 1930s. Even I was quite brilliant at the subject, there may not have been a huge amount that penetrated my long term memory.
“Even though I was quite brilliant..”
Me neither. The two majors in coming up with their inglorious and inhumane ‘solutions’ to an international problem, have validated public xenophobia and prejudice instead of encouraging humanity and compassion.
Problem with that, Kittylitter, is that you must then be in favour of sending ships over to collect the asylum seekers. Where is the line to be drawn?
‘…instead of encouraging humanity and compassion.’
It wouldn’t have been a disaster if we had got to them sooner…it’s sad but there’s no easy solution.
In the US there are 11 million illegal immigrants.
Drowning 800 people is not ‘encouraging humanity and compassion’.
Curious and curiouser.
I did economic history (admittedly over 2 decades ago), and I don’t recall that “the left” was invented in the 1930s
Capitalism is an economic system (as opposed to Command) but democracy is a political system (as opposed to single Party Communism – not to be confused with Socialism) both political systems have a left and right wing … so, confusing the two doesn’t make sense … as you did in your original statement … it wasn’t a “left” decision … had Howard won the election he would have been advised to do the same, by Treasury … and then Costello would have been gloating about the “planning” that had gone into accumulating a surplus (instead of building infrastructure) … and how Howard and Costello had saved
the planetAustralia …++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Thanks to the Spaniards and Greeks it looks like my favourite stocks BHP and Woodside should revisit a few sub $30 lows soon for the first time since 2009.
But enough of resource stocks.
One of the next booms will be in food production. That is sustainable food production. Our neighbours to our North will continue to seek out high protein producers.
That’s why companies like AAC (Australian Agricultural Company) are important.
It has excellent exposure to the Live Cattle Trade.

See, Wally, we agree on so much … 😉
SB, Kathy Jackson has continually said she’s not lily white.
I’m sure some barrackers will find the distraction involving Jackson entertaining, but she’s only a union official, she’s not in parliament. She can be dealt with by the members or the administrator acting on their behalf.
Thomson is a proven liar, and he’s an MP on the public payroll. We’re entitled to be offended by his behaviour. He’s changed his excuse so many times that I’ve lost count. But his barrackers just fall into line with whatever his latest is.
The issues involving Jackson are entertaining, but they don’t provide anything other than a minor distraction for Thomson.
ToM, I’ve hardly been uncritical of Thomson. And Jackson will probably have at least 3 years before FWA get a report done. No doubt a lot of what is said about Jackson is just Unionland payback for her breaking their code of silence. I wish more people would do that. Then we might get a better look at the seething morass of corruption that is labour politics in this country.

Anyway … re my Tassie holiday … our last stop is at Swansea Beach Chalets* and that’s approx. 1 hour from the Freycinet National Park … so that will be a visit!
I wonder if reb has forgot he set up the Daily Trash. Did he go on a huge bender and is now suffering an alco blackout much like Toilet does when he forgets his common sense
🙂
Has anyone checked over at the Farnham Report. He might be sitting over there wondering where everyone went .

Speaking of holidays, I’m currently surfing for about 4 or 5 hours a day. Nice too.
You’d freeze your arse off here … it must be like Taswegia … cold, miserable and raining … in fact Taswegia is looking pretty good, weather wise, at the moment!
Brissy should be cold at night and lovely sunshine during the day (like last week) but not wet and miserable … we even suggested to our UK rellies to visit us in winter!
Climate change warming, my arse!

On the AAC I’m with Jaws …agriculture should be a good investment, but won’t eclipse dirt for real value.
‘Religious leaders have taken a swipe at Sydney’s Catholic archbishop George Pell for denying the science of climate change and drowning out other voices in the debate.

‘Rabbi Kamins said too many people incorrectly believed religion had an antipathy towards science.’

Otherwise I daresay he would be a hypocrit
Limited News is also sacking people in the digital wing, not a good time to be in the industry.
‘Editorial staff, who were directed not to comment about the announcements, took to social media to vent their frustrations.
“… well that horrible moment finally arrived – en masse … to my colleagues and friends who lost their jobs today … you are all in my thoughts,” one wrote on Facebook.
‘Another said: “Crap time to be in the newspaper industry. Thoughts go out to all the subs at The Townsville Bulletin.”

‘Fairfax has been run too long by a board full of accountants and management men most of whom – with the exception of the passing appearance of John Fairfax – knew absolutely nothing about the running of newspapers.

I’m guessing reb has man flu.
He’s moving, egg, currently no internet access, only phone. 🙂
I thought no one was supposed to comment on court cases per ToMs Barrackers ?
Not quite true, if information is on public record, why not, its available to the public … Emma even tried to get Shorten to speculate re conspiracy … they both knew he wouldn’t/couldn’t do that … what they discussed would/could have no influence on the case anyway …
… I also agree with Bill Shorten, all we want is the truth … and all he did “suggest” is that any Liberal Party members involved, stand up and be counted … as if ..
… I too can see a Godwin Greche moment looming on the horizon …

Those to our North are hungry and increasingly thirsty.
That’s why I like Aust Agric Company (ASX :AAC)(curently building an abbatoir in Darwin) and Treasury Wine Estates (Penfolds, Wolf Blass etc) (ASX:TWE)
I’ll be researching a bit more on the cheese and baby formula producers like Bega next (ASX:BGA)

James, I don’t think he’d get a visa … 😦
Because of the Katter Rule?
Hello everybodies!
All I’ve got to say is “fking hell..”
Who’s idea was it to move again..?
Anyway, talk about a fking nightmare… It’s just aswell my better half is a project manager.
What an ordeal…
When moving from one apartment to another apartment you have to book a time in with the building managers – one where you’re moving from, and another where you’re moving to…
So just to make things a bit more stressful, the removalists turned up late, then had to do two trips because their truck wasn’t big enough (for all our antique artworks, gold bullion and wine collection)…
So then the “cut off time” for moving in to the new place is 4pm and we’re still moving stuff at 6.30…
The building manager started to get the shits saying things like “I’m meant to finish at 4pm” and then I lost it telling him that they have such a stupid fkn system where the removalists have to offload everything on the ground floor then manually cart it up two levels to get to the lift rather than straight into the lift from the ground floor….
Then he started going on about how it’s a system that’s “worked for ten years” and “we should’ve asked” beforehand.
At this point I’d had a gutsful. “I don’t appreciate your tone” I said…
Which I’ve come to appreciate, is quite an eloquent, pompous and condescending way of belittling and ridiculing someone without actually resorting to the profanity of saying “get fked you fkn cnut” but more or less conveying the same sentiment.
At this point he looked liked he was about to have an aneurysm.
My partner quickly shoved me into the lift before things deteriorated…
But then in the lift, we had the building manager’s offsider… Some moronic boofhead who was also complaining about finishing at 4pm..
“Well we would’ve all liked to have finished earlier” I said…
“But I don’t appreciate getting attitude from you two when we’re all trying to get things done as fast as we can..”
“What you two fail to realise is that it’s our fees that are paying your fkn wages.” I added pointedly.
“And I don’t need some fucking moron lecturing me about how to move stuff” I concluded (yes I did call his boss a fkn moron)…
So that was yesterday. What joy.
Anyway we won’t have intertubes at home for another week or so, so I’ll just have to blog on the company’s time.
” I’ll just have to blog on the company’s time.
…and who could possibly object to that? It’s not as if you’re a public servant, wasting our money.
Dont you have an iPhone ?
Turn your “hotspot” on and use your laptop.
Even some Android sets have “hotspots” I believe
Turn my “hotspot” on…?
Now there’s an invitation I didn’t expect.
I have an iphone and an ipad… I’ll try it tonight..
Its very simple if you have not tried before.
We use it in the car with our iPad alot

BTW, we’re going with IINET for home phone and internet.. Hopefuly it will be ok..

I actually had a bit of a look ‘tother day. FMD, conservatives do feel sooooo marginalised & victimised, don’t they! like the whole world outside of their own headspace is some kind of conspiracy set up to malign them. 🙄
FKN Queensland conservatives…the worst of the lot!

I think lefty’s get a bit suspicious about the whole sordid Slipper mess on account of Grech being in their recent memories; as weebee says.
Personally, I’m a little wary of blaming bad smells on conspiracy theories.
Quadrant is a pile of vomit, nonetheless.

Is the surf that good?! the photos make it look like Utopia…if a little crowded. The water down here at the moment is enough to make a toilet’s hands numb & face blue (but still fun).

Yeah, I forgot it initially, the smilie that is.
I thought common sense was/is uncommon anyways.
Well HD, fortunately (form me) the surf in Uluwatu is currently a little smaller than in the images!
There are reef breaks everywhere along this part of the coast, and no crowds. The waves come through in quick sets so there’s plenty for everyone. It’s a remarkably pleasant way to spend a week. Get up, surf, relax, then surf, a little more relaxing… It beats Tasmania.
I just figured out we don’t need to visit Taswegia, it’s visiting us …

We need to laugh more, I reckon….
Yep, sreb, brilliant I didn’t know that the French had such a sense of humour!
Hhahahahahaw … we do need to laugh more … hahahahahahaha!

Wow
This is getting interesting. Fairfax board have refused Gina R.

It’s a band aid so I would not watch movies/ youtube
Clive Palmer is on Lateline. Since he was born in Victoria can you Melbourne people confirm whether he is related to Sam Kekovich ?
Reb, Li’l Sancty and I are huge fans of the insect show. It’s on Fox frequently. Mrs Sancty hates it which makes it all the better.

This is for TB and his concern that history is repeating itself.

Thanks, egg, I’m used to most people being slow on the uptake 😉 (after all the GFC began in 2007) …
Not sure that investing in property is clever if WW3 break out!
I notice its not only the newspaper drawing similar parallels …
I’ve oft quoted The Creature From Jekyll Island … the history of the Federal Reserve Bank (and all its derivitives – including our own central bank) … their simple purpose is to protect the banks … that’s why the Fed was set up by the Morgans and the Rothschilds … and why they are NOT GOVERNMENT CONTROLLED AT ALL … as noted in your linked article …
We need to laugh more I reckon … just arrived in my email inbox …
LOL TB
Oh Geezus, and here’s me without my nappies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HA!

Now we know where Reb’s been this last week!!
By the way, I TOLD you it wasn’t terry towelling………
That’s CLEARLY a heavy cotton or denim type material….
SO … I just “won” a refund in “my favour” via a Paypal dispute … I think …
I ordered a laptop battery from au.batteryshop.com displaying an Australia Post logo at the top of the website and a Paypal verfied site on the bottom …
… 2-6 days delivery became 10 days… and the battery I received bore no resemblance at all to the one I had ordered …
I had paid $45.99 delivered … remeber this amount …
I then contacted the Seller IN CHINA on his .CO.UK email …
… Sunny, (easier to pronounce than, Xianghua Luo), … in due course, replied and after a few emails finally agreed to send another battery after I initiated a Dispute in Paypal …
… I then waited five days (patient, hey?) for information on the shipping … before asking the Seller, Sunny, via the Dispute protocol on Paypal, what was happening? Had he sent my new battery? Could I track it? Was I simply to get a refund? Had he changed his mind?…
… his reply … we have been celebrating the Dragon Boat Festival and it would be sent “today” … (Google research told me that the Dragon Boat Festival was on the 5th May each year! This was the middle of JUNE) …
I decided to escalate the Paypal Dispute to a Paypal Claim …
… after two days I was informed by Paypal that they had found in my favour and I was entitled to a refund … but to get it I had to send the incorrect battery back to China — with tracking …
… the cheapest shipping from Australia to China I found was $53 with Australia Post … and why should I pay for, Sunny’s, stuff up anyway?
… so who actually “won” the dispute?
(I have since contacted Paypal and am waiting for a reply … don’t expect too much from them but I did use the words “justice”, “verified”, responsibility” and “cynical” in my email … I was tempted to play the “just a pensioner” card but that’s not quite true just yet!)
Caveat emptor!
ebay and paypal are works of the devil.
I don’t use either of them any more following a comparable bad experience.
Fck it, TB, you’re retired. Pursue it to the end. Send back the part. Pay for the postage (I’ll stump up the $$ if you don’t want to) and claim for that as well. And annoy and persist and complain and finally go to A Current Affair.
Geezus those stories shit me. If I’d done that I’d be mortified and have the correct part in express mail same day.
Not eBay, sreb, a webstore (like you, I rarely if ever buy on eBay) … it was the silliness of “in your favour” … that struck me … I’m currently looking at other Australian sites with an ABN no that I can check … the laptop in question is an 8yo Dell Inspiron so I’m not keen to splash out!
“the laptop in question is an 8yo Dell Inspiron”
8 years old….?????!!!
That thing must weigh a tonne… Honestly for the love of god, why don’t you just chuck it away and get a new one…
James, but sometimes its not worth the “effort” (being retired doesn’t mean your life “stops” and time is infinite ……….. )
Thanks very much for the offer … 🙂 but this Chinese dickhead has form, I found the forum thread this morning on Whirlpool …
http://forums.whirlpool.net.au/archive/1467717
And I don’t think ACA would be interested … they seem to be more interested in celebs divorcing and footballers getting cought and olympic athletes making twits of themselves than bringing companies like these to air (and I include Paypal) …
GO QUEENSLANDER!!!
That thing must weigh a tonne… Honestly for the love of god, why don’t you just chuck it away and get a new one…
Well yes it does weigh a ton but I use it primarily for my midi backing files when I have a gig … and it really is/has been reliable …
I simply can’t justify the outlay for a new laptop … The Minister for War, Water, Power(now!), Finance & Fun would have a fit!
I have a little Fujitsu netbook, as a back-up, that my Teutonic friend gave me one night, out of the blue – just put it in front of me and said, “that is for you, my friend” – I sat there stunned for about 30 seconds.
Thanks for the support, HD! (got the letters the right way around an’ all!)
“the laptop in question is an 8yo Dell Inspiron”
Faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaark
8 years old ?
TB
There must be plenty of really tall 8 year old office towers that have perfectly good top floor decks that you could test to see what speed your 8 year old computer could actually go…………………………………..with the help of gravity
“… after two days I was informed by Paypal that they had found in my favour and I was entitled to a refund … but to get it I had to send the incorrect battery back to China — with tracking …
… the cheapest shipping from Australia to China I found was $53 with Australia Post … and why should I pay for, Sunny’s, stuff up anyway?”
I’ve had exactly the same issue with them, TB – cost of return > than cost of item.
My experience with Paypal is that they are absolutely hopeless to deal with and not interested in really helping their customers. As a virtual monopoly why should they bother?
I noticed this little netbook which would be handy to have. I still prefer netbooks to tablets, especially at this price.
I don’t know if this is completely true or not but I just heard an expert on refrigeration on radio saying that the Carbon Tax on 1 kilogram of airconditioning gas ( Yes not one tonne but one kilogram) will be $30 from 1 July.
Consequently the 40 kilo bulk bottles that he will purchase on Saturday are set to rise from $400 to over $1,700 by Monday.
Too bad if your aircon needs regasing

Last time I checked they were $42!
Seriously, as I said in reply to, sreb, I use the Inspiron for my midi files and that includes the karaoke files I use when I’m singing (my memory isn’t good enough to remember the words for over 250 songs) …
… and the Inspiron has a large 15″ screen and isn’t shiny like modern screens … and doesn’t need much power to drive the external Creative sound card I use into my PA …
… the netbook is certainly powerful enough but a 10″ screen is a bit tiny to read, when your singing … squinting isn’t a good look in front of an audience … 😉
I don’t know if this is completely true or not …
You don’t? (I’s have a bloody good guess) And your an accountant? So, do your clients understand what price “gouging” is and that there are severe state and federal penalties for it?
I’m talking about how much CO2 goes into a kilo of refrigerent………………. Not bloody price gouging.
Work it out for me on your fucking 8 year old abacus.
Considering you still have an 8 year old computer I reckon you are the type whose wardrobe also still harbours a pair of Amco denims.

I’ve been at the cafe getting a hiding. My own fault hanging out with that vicious crowd.
Vicious or vacuous ?
LOL
A most bizarre thing happened tonite. We were parked in warringah mall westfields tonite. I had reversed into the spot. I had the drivers side passenger door halfway open on the 4wd moving stuff between the back seat and the boot when a Hyundai excel came in nose first and manouvered on and on and on to fit . Then the nutcase suddenly reverses at an acute angle and manages to rip his wing mirror off on the edge of my open rear door.
Then proceeds to blame me. I’m unpacking a trolley into the boot when it happens.
Some people

The Euro will be extinct by Christmas if Germany does not stump up the cash or guarantee debts very very very soon
I’m on one of my surf safaris JAWS. Good today. Big conditions, probably more suited to the nimble youth who are quicker to their feet.
Do you take Fifi surfing ToM or is she off shopping for a leopard skin bikini and other outfits in torquay ?
In fact a man of your means and intelligence possibly would have sent her off to Ascot so she could be very knowledgeable about what to wear for the upcoming Spring Carnival I expect
🙂
Fifi doesn’t surf. Though she may take it up, now that Rip Curl has a range of wetsuits in hot pink, though not the leopard skin print yet.
Good to hear. Im sure she spends far too much of your money staying beautiful for all of it to be spoilt by salt water.
Perhaps a leopard skin surfboard cover ?
It’d look great driving by the local Greens office with her rack in your car and that on your roof rack
LOL
Only if it’s genuine leopard.
Thanx for your reassuring words Jaws, the vacuous mob at the cafe will not weary me. I’m only hanging out on one thread down there… to vent my spleen as July 1 draws ever closer.
