  1. We walked back from the pub in the dark and had to out stare about a dozen kangaroos who think they own our place. Now 10.43 pm.
  2. Speaking of old bikes, my club holds a really great swap meet.
  3. This is what four cue bits looks like.
  4. If we didn’t have power you could really talk about death and destruction!
  5. In the last week or two there has been a notable change in press reporting and public statements from authorities. We seem to have crossed the hump of climate craziness and now there is an acknowledgement that we will need oil and gas for decades to come. Australian governments are rushing to catch up. Larry Fink of Black Rock has changed his investment direction. There is hope!
  6. BP is Better Petrol because it's Benzol Powered. (said Bob Dyer) Go well, go Shell, it's a good, good feeling. It's a good, good feeling and it's swell.
  7. There was a young man from Melbourne, whose parents were wealthy and well born... I forget the rest, but it has to rhyme!
  8. Its an old photo of the Qantas executive bog.
  9. And pneumatic gear extension.
  10. This clip enabled the Ukrainians to identify the site. Expect a big explosion in a few days from now.
  11. My uncle was a policeman and I remember him as a kind and gentle man. I don’t think he was much promoted.
  12. When the woman went missing we were in our caravan and out of phone coverage. I went to some trouble to get onto the police website to say that I know the area well and I would be looking along Skirkas Road Buninyong where there are hidden mine shafts. This morning I read that the police focus is now in Skirkas road! I don’t understand how they can have the perp but not the body. I guess they don’t use phone books any more.
  13. There are separate prohibitions on denigrating shortness and blackness. Also on ordering people to do anything unless you are in the military. Best to stay at home.

    Brain Teaser

    As this is a brain teaser and not a knowledge quiz, I will say The Longest Day.
  15. Onetrack... 1974 From my scrap book..
  16. It also varies a lot year to year. The mining industry deaths include vehicle accidents anywhere on the lease including access roads. You might have only four or five total fatalities across Australia one year and a dozen the next.
