Seemed quite logical to me when you explained it, although it didn't sound as though what the Spirit did was very Holy. That was a bit disappointing.
-
People say they will be the best looking battleships ever built. Like nothing ever seen before. Not even close.
-
Does that mean he's going to learn how to weld too?
-
He said he’s going to be personally involved in designing them because he’a a ‘very aesthetic person’ and he doesn’t like the current flat sided shapes used for stealth reasons. That tells you all you need to know. There are a few other problems - there’s no money allocated for their design and construction, the shipyards don’t have the capacity, and the two and a half years he says it will take to build each ship is totally unrealistic. Every warship they are currently building is at least a year behind schedule.
-
Someone should remind him that battleships are obsolete. Doesn’t look good for our submarines if the shipyards are now going to be busy building battleships.

I hope the American taxpayers are happy with their new plaques.

An optimist would probably have thought he meant Natural Intelligence. Apparently, I'm not an optimist.

I've had two big gum trees fall on the house in a severe storm earlier this year. They were not even our trees. They were on the road verge but were tall enough to reach the house and cause a lot of damage. Not a nice experience.
-
When someone was asked how they were coping with all the stress and anxiety and uncertainty caused by the constantly changing Covid medical advice and lockdowns, they said " No problem, I'm used to all that. I shop at Aldi." -
IGA and ALDI are the main ones.

He had a mental and physical breakdown which he describes in the book.
-
Robert Pirsig as I recall. Read it years ago although I've never ridden a motorbike.
-
Of course not. And I agree.
-
Because the suggestions he made about what could and should be done to try and prevent another Bondi happening in the future were reasoned and sensible. He was a good treasurer in his time and Albo is a good Prime Minister, but neither have a monopoly on good ideas.
-
Josh Frydenberg just gave Albo and the government an angry serve on their failure to do enough to counter anti-semitism. Made some very good points and handed him an action plan. I hope Albo’s listening.
-
That’s rubbish.

Looks pretty excessive to me: https://www.theguardian.com/world/gallery/2025/jan/20/devastation-aerial-views-gaza-ceasefire-in-pictures

A cuppa? I made a thermos and it still wasn’t enough!
-
The claim that President Trump declared "war on foreign names" and ordered all states and cities to be renamed in "good old English" is false.
-
According to the label they're not only boneless, but `inverted' as well. That doesn't sound good.
-
Not all of them were happy about the $85,000 either because there was a cut-off date as I recall and some missed out, and others thought they should have got more. It's a tough one and there's no easy answer but at least the WA Govt tried to do something to compensate for past mistakes.
-
Tradition, or they just haven't caught up with the news yet?
-
She's good at her job and probably didn't do anything she wasn't allowed to under the rules, however she (and a lot of other politicians of all stripes) should have seen the warning flags and paid out of her own pocket for her family to attend these events. However the obvious point is that the rules need to change to align with public expectations and Albo needs to get onto it.

Americanism over riding Aus, why don't people care.

Probably because somebody picked it up to have a look at it. -

Don't bother with the spell checker. Half the fun of reading Jerry's posts is figuring out what he's trying to say.
