Hello darkness my old friend

Not sure how you make babies on a bicycle. Good balance required!

I was hoping Ranelagh got the same rain we did.

Interesting article about AI and how it's probably not the best idea to be an early adopter. What's this got to do with old house reno's? The example they used was Greece being the first to develop flushing toilets. However, in Greece now there's warning signs not to flush paper down the loo, because it'll stuff the plumbing. Why? Because for some historical reason they use 50mm drains which is half the diameter of Australian sewage drains. Original is not always the best.

I assume that every party compiles a shit list on anyone not in their party, and probably many in their party too. Not a good look, but judging by what everyone is saying about her, it wouldn't be a big list anyway.

I can see the other side of it too. Especially on the bike, you're on a lovely twisty road but there's someone in front of you doing 5km below the limit and slowing even more for a corner you'd take at full speed. Very frustrating.

All the best to you and your better half Peter. Hope it doesn't get any closer to your place.

He was killed by another politician/businessman who happened to be Vietnamese, but any opportunity for a bit of casual racism I guess

"Useful idiot" is how Putin would see him.
-
Knowing about his sexual behaviour is different from seeing it. Video of their President's corpulent body squashing some reluctant model might change the mind of some of his religious conservative voters
-
I seriously think Putin must hold some compromising video on Trump. It's the only thing that could explain his treasonous behaviour.
