Big boobies?

If you had a foot you probably would just get it cut down to six inches.

It’s great to see the smiling photo of Albo riding the Cairns Skyrail as his way of helping people impacted by the the NQ floods. He is showing that Cairns residents should ride the Skyrail to Kuranda until the water subsides.

I have been on minus 40 a few times, in the Arctic. My main memory is wanting to be somewhere else.

Positive is I got car painting job done today. Negative is that it turned out crap, I will have to sand it back in a couple of weeks and recoat it. -
I am surprised that pilots on both sides in WW1 got to 20,000 feet for periods of 10-15 minutes without oxygen. They usually got quite ill at the end of it and some blacked out, to recover in a spin at lower altitudes. By mid 1918 they were using oxygen and patrolling up to 21,000 feet. At the extreme altitudes, a height advantage of 50 feet would determine whether you could bring your guns to bear on the enemy, or stall and spin as you raised the nose.

I am ten years older and more concerned with terroir than terrain.

Back in the day, artificial eyes were made of wood, painted. A bloke with an artificial eye asked a girl to go out with him. “Would I!” She exclaimed. “Your not so flash yourself you skinny bitch” he replied.

When I was young I worked in a mine 3500 feet deep and before work I did flying lessons at around 5000 feet a couple of days a week. Had no effect, except for the farting. That has persisted, like long Covid.

I haven't heard of a gin clear day before. As distinct from a Scotch mist, or a wine-dark sea? -
The political and philosophical arguments are too complex. All Russians are responsible for Putin and all Gazans are responsible for Hamas, and get what they deserve. If Australia ever attacks another country then I will be responsible. What, we did? Then thank goodness we prevailed, as winning trumps morality, as Putin and Hamas both know.

I see the word aircrafts a lot lately.

Years ago in Perth there were birds that mimicked the pedestrian crossing sounds at the lights. I wondered if any blind people stepped out as a result.

A clay pot - ask my wife!

Again, thunder, rain, no power. Gone to bed.

Governments today focus on the important things like transgender athletes, whingeing first nations people and LGBalphabet people.

We haven't really had any summer yet. Grass all around is still green. Only a handful of hot days, lots of very cool ones. We had a fire at Christmas.

I had a school mate M.Bell who may have ended up out there. He grew up along the dog fence.

No power, heavy rain, no broadband. 4G is running at slow speed. Thunder fairly continuous.

It’s defenestration, a very old political move.

I first saw coloured smoke pouring out of a footpath coffee shop in London about twenty years ago. Took me a few days and asking around to figure out what I had seen.
