The totally off-topic thread

Only pawn could eat through a quota like that.

Now why would Ewing's mum be... ah, you know what, never mind - some things are better not discussed.



Have to say though - pretty cool of Internode to stop data use once it reaches the cap. Very responsible thing to do compared to the other carriers who do not offer this option and instead are happy to lay on the charges thick and heavy once you exceed your allocation.

Going to be one of those days I think, just have to remain alert.

Fortunately the cool change has come through MEL and the temperature has dropped by >10 degrees.

That's a lot of chess!

YouTube would be my guess.

Good to know - I have only gone outside once today to get some lunch and it was warm.

I actually randomly saw a certian AFFer was crossing the road and walking down the street, but I don't think he saw me though.

I think Jetstar has got the wrong idea about their passengers...

So why did the AFFer cross the road? Was he too chicken to try the QP?

'Cos there's no flight to the other side?

As much as I am loving being back in MEL I am so over the tennis on the tele. Hope this doesn't get me deported.

Is the tennis on?

The TV will only get turned on when the AFL Footy show and Sam Newman return....

Just got around to watching "It's Slade" from th BBC Slade night prior to Christmas, Proper music and a humble band. Bloody brilliant. I saw them at the Monsters of Rock festival in 1981 and they blew AC/DC, Whitesnake, and the dreadful Blue Oyster Cult away on a wet day.

Noddy Holder is a genius....clever lyrics, a genuine showman and the ability not to take himself seriously.

Related to my last post only because Rod Hull introduced Slade on a show back in the 80's.....but did Emu fall of the roof as well?

Flounging in BKK. 1.5hrs to get here, bloody Fri night traffic.
Haven't replaced my carry on bag, even hereat the airport the Tumi and Victorinox contenders are in the $700-900 bracket.
QF did concede to take a bunch of points from me, so the fam is in row 2 rather than 24 and hoping for a WP shadow.

And even better, Little Miss wants the window seat and her Daddy to sit next to her!!!!

Playground posts don't count so you're still on 499!

Which Victorinox are you considering?

I think I'm close to getting a Mobilizer 20.

Werks 4.0 is nice, I have the light carry in version which is not expandable. I think the werks is the cheaper range.

Also have a spectra which I like, if you want a 4 wheel hard shell. But it is heavier than the comparable rimowa (though half the price I think)

[h=1]Fluoro mozzies in new research[/h]

Scientists in Perth have revealed an incredible research project to track the movements of metropolitan mosquitoes - by letting them loose covered in fluorescent pink and orange paint.
Fluoro mozzies in new research - The West Australian

I reckon they'll be able to get a heap of data to mine for information. Wonder if they'll be allowed into the PER QP?

Oh and don't swat them. They're more important than you!

 

[cove]

Swat first then report the fluoro mark on the work vest if you are in the Perth QP.

There is a small enclave of anti-tennis/cricket/footy people in Melbourne. We are usually spotted by a conversation that doesn't contain references to the above. Although this can be deceiving as occasionally tennis/cricket/footy followers manage to do this too.
