I'm struggling to see where my new Harley is going to come from before next summer ....

My Bonneville has a similar predicament.

Where you live* in Sydney that just makes you a social climber

* I'm only guessing roughly where you live.

I'm just a battler from the western suburbs.

The heartland of Australia.

Sydney's west.

KT has been running a secret review since February and it looks like there'll finally be some changes to our stale football program. That's promising.

I'm tiring of the anti-Kane and anti-Brett sentiments on this board.

If it makes you feel any better, Daniel Stewart is making me feel a lot more positively towards Brett Ebert lately because at least Brett Ebert isn't Daniel Stewart.

My PAFC Buddy curse is so strong, I will pick Kane Cornes next year.

I'm skinny and have no muscle but when I wear my guernsey, and look in the mirror, it doesn't look unusual because that's what our team is like.

I think Port started going downhill when Russell Ebert started getting involved in the club again. His absence was the most productive period in PAFC history.

lol @ these quotes from JUST the first page of this thread.

Are you Shaw?

I agree. It is an amazing place.
I've lived in many different parts of the world and know how very lucky we are here.

It's just some of the people ...

I enjoy living in Adelaide but only because I don't often leave the Lefevre Peninsular.
I've found many folk living outside 'the peninsular' to be quite different and often compliment the nanny state mentality SA gives off.

It's basically only people in the Port Adelaide zoned suburbs I find myself associating with regularly.

Adelaide has always been a city of contrasts. For everything bad there is a direct opposite. Musically, Adelaide punched well above its weight for years. So few seem to recognise how influential a group of Adelaide people were on Seattle's so-called "grunge" scene from the mid-80's to the early 90's.
To quote from Mark Arm, of Green River and Mudhoney fame - "Obviously, I didn't make grunge up. I got it from someone else. The term was already being thrown around in Australia in the mid-'80s to describe bands like King Snake Roost, The Scientists, Salamander Jim, and Beasts of Bourbon."

King Snake Roost was an Adelaide band the evolved from the ruins of Grong Grong. Guitarist Charlie Tolnay would later record with Jello Biafra as Tumour Circus. Salamander Jim was a brilliant band that played swampy blues "grunge" with 3 of its 4 mainstays, Martin Bland, Stu Spasm, and Lachlan McLeod, being from Adelaide. Tex Perkins, who spent 2 years in Adelaide, fronted the band. Perkins had been referred to as "The High Priest of Grunge" at a point in the 1980's.
Bloodloss was another Adelaide band that had a big influence on those people in Seattle. So much so, Mark Arm himself resurrected the band in Seattle in the 90's with original Adelaideans Martin Bland and Renestair EJ (RIP), touring and recording/releasing new material.
I could go on but I won't bore you all much more. Anyway, not everything about Adelaide = bad is all I'm saying.

I'll leave with this photo of former Morphett Vale High student Stu Spasm with his then wife Kat Bjelland (Babes In Toyland), Courtney Love, and Kurt Cobain. View attachment 97165

Please go on this is very interesting, I once met a guy out the frount of a Jello spoken word that gave me the run down on Timor circus .

I was pritty wasted that I can't recall mutch of the conversation other than there was a Adelaide conection.

Seen babes in toy land @ summersult festival where very entertaining.

Because there is no working class anymore. The definitions are obsolete.

We now have

CEO, Partners, Big Business
Trades, Professions and management
Semi skilled
Unskilled
Underclass

If you ain't in the first row your better off being in the last row.
