The tragedy and mystery of this desperate flight to Australia

There's gunfire in the distance as a famed Dutch pilot takes off in a desperate bid to reach Australia. He's unaware that in the plane's safe are millions of dollars worth of diamonds — most of which have never been found.

Well I suppose we grow up watching the footage from before our birth date and it’s a people way out of reach. And then when the footage appears within your life timeline it is within reach. We are rapidly closing in on 50 years since our first Flag in 1975.

It’s 20 years since September 11th. Anyone born from 1998 onwards has no memory of that time

20 years?!?!?! Jeepers, there's a canal off in the distance.

Hot & rainy, but not a real bad time to go. The monsoon & cyclone risk would have largely passed and things will be fairly green and the rivers full.

Mosquitoes more a concern. Also some roads may be closed from flooding. It's beautiful and green tho.

Re. Extraditions, Have they given up on getting that Puneet Puneet guy out of India yet ?

I thought he was coming as well..

Here's your answer gents... It's all some drunk's fault at the SCG apparently:

Puneet’s new bizarre excuse to avoid extradition
Killer driver Puneet Puneet has tried to argue that because Indian cricketers were subjected to abuse he should be spared extradition.

Track back to a La Nina year and look at the weather for March-April.

If it is, I imagine it won't be for long

Today was the first I have seen them. I think they’ve done something incredible. I don’t know anything about stonks but I’m surprised this isn’t a bigger story.

They seem like a mix of the occupy Wall Street people, angry millionials, angry retail traders and a few just there to watch. They write like traders as a pisstake...I think.

I wonder what happens now? Reddit must be getting some pressure to shut them down. It’s so much money. The Wall Street people must be shitting themselves. **** I wish I was doing it with them.
