Random Things on Your Mind (Part 5)

[DREAM TEAM BUFF]

Was reminiscing about old tv shows the other day... Does anyone remember Ghost Writer? Loved that show.

Yes i do

Just quietly another drug user who played AFL has outed themselves and even quiter, if people are serious in doing something about this they'll strip any accolades this person and his team recieved . Some of the confessed usage is really good for rehab and others for second half efforts in prelim finals, as history told us with others...But Carlton cheated in other ways and were not stripped, so you can't really single anyone out anymore.

Today is packing day at my house for our move to Melbourne. Feels weird watching 5 guys pack up everything in my house and not being allowed to touch anything.

I'm sure my back will thank me for the next week!

Kind of makes sense now as to why he resigned when he did. Not even half way into his first term in office and he pulls (no pun) the pin.

Was sarcasm, my point was due to surrounding circumstances the suppression order was effectively rendered useless.

There is so many puns I'd like to use here, but won't because it might make me in contempt of court.

So my wife's cousin won a competition to toss the coin at the grand final.

Needless to say I'm trying to sweettalk him..

Had our 20 week scan this morning and all good!

Was it you who wore a west coast guernsey to the game today then?

On Thursday a bloke I know got a letter from the RAH. two weeks earlier he had an operation to remove a tumor from his bowel. This letter advised him he had an appointment the next day in the outpatients clinic at the RAH cancer center to discuss kemo options when the wound heals.

He is unable to drive until his wound heals, being on a DSP with a morgage he had no money to make the trip , he just before recieving the letter regoed his car, paid his house insurance and shit. So I drove him and put the 50 dollars into his petrol tank to get there.

We drove the 200 klicks to Gawler and caught the train in, alot less traffic and more relaxing sitting on those nice electric trains that make Gawler now. Cheap at $1.30 a ticket for me, free for him at off peak being a senior

We sit around for over an hour for a ten minute appointment and off we go back home. While leaving Roseworthy in low light just after the rain, I go to overtake a car doing about 15 under the limit, as I look I see a car on the shoulder off the road and left of the fog line with no lights on, I took it to be parked. It was a Poh-lice car driving the other way trying to line us up heading north with the radar inbuilt into that vehicle, she was popping on and off the road from the shoulder.

If I hadn't hesistated to be sure what I thought was a parked car on the other side of the fog line and she was looking at her dash trying to see radar readings.......I could of been hung out to dry on the wrong side of the road with traffic banked behind me as well. It was just before 6pm.

Big road saftey drive this long weekend....ironic.

Sadly no

Jones and the Sydney Uni Liberal Club in quite a bit of hot water over this - and I don't buy Jones' 'apology' one bit http://www.adelaidenow.com.au/jones-says-gillards-dad-died-of-shame/story-e6frea6u-1226484128451

 

[cmndstab]

Alan Jones is an idiot, no surprises there.

 

[smoovy]

Jones shouldn't throw stones in glass houses

...or London public toilet blocks

 

[brucetiki]

What's worse - Jones' comments, people in the crowd laughing in response, or the Sydney Uni Liberal Club effectively condoning the comments by tweeting that speech was 'brilliant' (they've since removed that tweet)

Could the Libs lose the unlosable election again?

If they keep saying crap like this and Abbott keeps acting like his sexiest self - they are heading that way. Yes they still have a very long way to go but they are slowly losing ground.

 

[rayven]

To get to Abbott, you got to go threw his allies.

Polls are already approaching 50-50 again. If the coalition keep self-destructing like this, then it looks like we'll be spared the indignity of having Abbott as PM.

True but when push comes to shove and it's election day - is it really going to be a 50/50 spilt?

Right now, I doubt it. In 9 months, it could be especially if the Libs run their mouth off as they are prone to do.

I'm wondering what the significance of a 'Ruby' is?
I just won one, I'm the 11th person to get one.
But I dont know what for.

I'd ask chief. But I fear he might see it was an accident and take it away from me

For those that like the SA Dog Rescue page on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/SADOGRESCUE), they have a female dog available for adoption called Karma - brings new meaning to the term 'Karma's a bitch'

I put you up for a trophy for the work you've done organising the MVP voting all year and the great work you've done with the Award Presentation thread in the post-season. That might account for it.
