    Morgoth Jane My money please

    You two nice but well meaning fools bet the Ruddster would be run out of town by July 6. You both will fail as you know. Thus the question is, how do you reconcile your wagers. I am open to suggestions on this, Jane you being a pensioner and all i will cut you some slack. Morgoth you are...

    Now Xstrata exposed as liars.

    http://www.smh.com.au/business/xstrata-claims-on-tax-and-job-losses-do-not-add-up-20100608-xtm7.html In May Xstrata said it had paid $4.3 billion in tax and royalties since 2003. A BusinessDay analysis of the company's accounts shows the miner paid $2.2 billion in royalties, indicating it had...

    Palmer is a liar.

    Well well, who would have thought... http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2010/06/07/2919984.htm He said one of those projects would employ about 3,000 people and generate about $2 billion a year in exports. But now Mr Palmer has told tonight's Four Corners program that he was probably...

    FTA-TV Northern Exposure

    Never really got into this show when it was on originally so have made the effort to catch the re-runs on Foxtel. Really enjoying it. Love the quirkiness of it, really goes off on some weird tangents. The alaskan setting is also a plus. What a stunner Maggie was!

    Fox News

    Is it just me or are these guys even more "in the tank" for the GOP this time around than '04. From Hannity's seeming Obama paranoia to the three morning bubble heads and their ad nauseum waffle about Acorn, they just seem to be getting worse. Some of them make O'Reilly look moderate. Mind...

    Before the Bounce

    Fox sport 6.30pm Fridays. In my humble opinion the best footy show on tv. With the Chief, Spud, Billy and token media nerd, this show has it all. Great way to start the footy weekend. Just the right mix of comedy, entertainment and genuine footy content. Two thumbs up.:thumbsu::thumbsu:

    Dunstall vs Barrett

    Love it when the Chief gets stuck into the insipid Damian Barrett. Carved him up beautifully over the media's over reaction re: buddy and clarkson and then their total silence over Richo and Laidley's antics. Pissweak Damo.

    Bucks "You'll be going down tonight".

    ....to a female eagles supporter in the crowd. With a quick follow up, "the eagles that is". Top work bucks - had some fun with the girls in the wedding dresses in the crowd too.:thumbsu:

    Anybody else glad it's a Saturday arvo game...?

    I am, not a huge fan of sunday games (or saturday night really). The anticipation and waiting around just kills me. Saturday 2.10 - yessirree bob. Just like the good old days.:thumbsu:

    On the Couch talking points.

    What will the boys talk about tonight? Let's help them out. - Adelaide's double goal. - Buddy's run through the middle. Was it more than 15m? - Cyril's goal. - Melbourne woeful again. Anything else?

    Buddy's run through the middle.

    How exhilirating was that run through the middle. Breathtaking stuff. Absolutely burnt off the tigers like they weren't even there. Buddy the 6" 6" follower maybe? No way known he ran more than the 15 metres! Bloody maggots are just jealous of him!

    Any changes for next week?

    No injury concerns as far as I could see so perhaps no changes for the tigers? Will be interesting in a couple of weeks perhaps when Tuck, Boyle and Dew will be available for selection.

    Republican candidates

    So in a country of what, 300 million, this is the best the republicans can offer??!! Romney: Mormon, therefore an idiot. Next. Huckabee: Baptist I believe and a creationist at that. Goodbye. Thompson: Incredibly dull and incredibly lightweight. Not a serious chance anyway. Ron Paul...

    Rudd's press club address

    Anybody see it? Pretty smooth performance, kept it all fairly low key, no evidence of any hubris. Couple of curly questions which he straightbatted nicely. Just got to get through his grilling with Windscreens O'Brien tonight and he's home free. Yep, clear win in this debate to the...

    JWH gaffe watch

    Worth updating as we go through the campaign. So far the verbal blunders include; 1: "Well 6.25%" Actually official interest rates are 6.50% Mr Prime Minister. 2: "Mr Speaker!" In response to a heckler in the crowd at the Apple festival in his electorate of Bennelong. 3: "We commit...

    Nicole Cornes, why labor why???

    Seems to be singlehandedly defying the massive swing to labor in SA. Heard her on the radio this morning - embarassing, cringeable stuff. I actually feel sorry for her. Why labor why!!!???

    Rodent confirms: I won't serve full term

    As per 7.30 report the dessicated coconut has confirmed he won't serve the full term and will "probably" hand over to icebergs Costello. So a vote for the coconut is a vote for icebergs? Oh dear. Oh and bye bye Bennelong - that's the first of the 16 dominoes...

    Australian story Monday night 28 August

    Anybody else catch this two parter? 'Bout the seemingly innocent man jailed for the murder of a Brisbane girl 16 years ago. Immensely moving story. It would seem the mounting evidence shows he did not, could not, have committed the crime. Has been out on parole for a while but he is still...

    Morgan phone poll 23/8. 60/40 TPP.

    Latest Morgan phone poll is out. Yeah it's Morgan, which tends to overstate slightly the labor vote and the sample size is relatively small, but as in indicator of the public's attitude to strippergate; it's interesting. They don't give a stuff.:thumbsu...

    The bible code.

    Have been a couple of books on the subject by this bloke - Michael Drosnin. Essentially saying that the greatest minds from Harvard, Princeton etc have agreed with his hypothesis - there is a code in the bible that predicts all future events, which cannot be dismissed as mere coincidence...

    So it was about the oil...

    Not that anybody with a modicum of intelligence thought otherwise but... (from the BBC); The Bush administration made plans for war and for Iraq's oil before the 9/11 attacks sparking a policy battle between neo-cons and Big Oil, BBC's Newsnight has revealed. Two years ago today - when...

    Jesus the bearded wonder

    Why do most artistic representations of Jesus portray him (or should that be Him?) as a doe eyed bearded young man gazing upwards in seeming rapture? I was particularly struck by this when travelling through Europe recently. Be it a stained glass window in an ancient church or a painting in...
