The car part that's almost extinct - just 8% of new models have it

Same argument goes against 22 year old flying instructors. -
Trump will achieve a lot of things that need to be done and would not have been done otherwise. He might break a few things along the way.

The Story of O was about something else entirely.

I thought it was going to be the CD player, my car has one. -
It is with great sadness that I have to mention the loss of a few local businesses as a result of political mismanagement. A local bra manufacturer has gone bust, a submarine company has gone under, a manufacturer of food blenders has gone into liquidation, a dog kennel has had to call in the retrievers and a company supplying paper for origami enthusiasts has folded. Draino has gone down the drain. The saddest one though is the ice cream van man found dead covered in nuts and raspberry sauce. He couldn't take it anymore and topped himself..

I can't stand the cold, I get depression. Grew up in a hot climate.

Way back when, if someone was a victim, a serious respectable photo of them was used in the press. Now they seem to seek out the other sort, but perhaps that is all to be found on social media. The Laos victim photos were not bad like that, but probably still lacking some of the respect that I would appreciate.

I suspect it was all much safer in the 90s than it is now. We joked about the rascals but now I would take it seriously.

Antarctica is closer to Melbourne than Darwin is. Explains a lot about the weather.

Another random thought... often when a young female is assaulted, murdered or falls victim to something else, photos of the person are published which make them look like a victim in search of a tragedy. In other words, these photos taken from Farcebook or other social media do not show young women like my children or grandchildren, but rather show pouting, over made-up girls who seem to be trying to look like hookers. I know it is absolutely forbidden to suggest that they have attracted trouble, but someone should be honest about it.

The Donbass is the richest part. I can see Trump doing a deal with the NATO allies in which they do the training and fighting, host US bases, while he spends dollars in the USA making shells, bombs and advanced weapons to send over in support. In return for mineral and technology deals with Ukraine.

Me too...we have an island bench, quite long, which I circumnavigate while the kettle boils. If I don't do it, it means I'm having a bad day.

Hmmm... they just had a democratic election with a clear outcome. So how is democracy dead?

I rely on the BBC for my news when I get contradictory stories in Australia.

Dragging a dead weight.

The more important question is where are they going?
-
All of that. Frames from local materials, and walls from rolls of plastic carried in by chopper. You could certainly hear the bloke in the next room snoring.

What colliery owners? The collieries had been nationalised into the National Coal Board.

Hands up, or I'll fill you full of bronze.

Dongas of the other extreme in PNG.

Griselda also wrote a book - Dune is a four letter word.

Competent? We have not had such a poorly-led bunch of despicable since the 1970s.

Do paper aeroplanes have stationery engines?
