Hmmm - and opportunistic thieves. Parked outside our accommodation in Ballarat last week, we had 5 bikes on the rack. The 4 best ones had a bike chain with combination lock threaded around them. Mine, the dodgiest, did not (the chain was too short for all 5). One night I couldn't be bothered taking them all off the rack and putting them behind the house. Next morning, there were only 4 bikes on the rack - my unchained one was gone. I'm just hoping that whoever nicked it, it was someone who really needed it - not just a drunk who couldn't be bothered walking home.

That's not going to work. Give the cup a 90 degree twist when lifting and the lock will come out too.

I just find it amusing that all this is based on Tickle and Giggle. Sounds like a fun case.

Sun's always in the north for us. In winter it's lower on the horizon.

Sounds like a solution in search of a problem to me. I work with geographically disbursed teams and it's no problem to remember that the Adelaideans are half an hour behind and the banana benders during daylight saving are 1 hour + 20 years behind...

Actually if you read his stickers, I'd say he's on the progressive side. He probably annoys the far right.

I wonder why the writers of the sitcom "Leave it to Beaver" thought that "Beaver Cleaver" would be a good name for the lead character.

He's a chip off the old block.

You can whip up a very realistic looking facsimile of any pistol you can think of on your 3D printer now. No problem with customs. Even make your own vodka bottles out of them if that's what you want.

I actually watched this episode. Got to the one with the arrows and lost it there. Never would have got the 1% question.

I think the "alphabet sexuality" is more positive than not. My son (13) quite matter-of-factly told us that one of his mates is gay, another is pansexual and there's an intersex person in his class. This is said without judgement or prejudice. Imagine when you were at school. Would those "different" kids be as fairly treated by their peers?

Don't watch regular TV. A Britbox subscription will get you all that British stuff at $10 a month.

Is it really a huge increase, or just better labelling? Maybe in the old days they were just the "bad kids" in class and there wasn't a word for it.

Before you worry too much Peter, I think the message history in Ebay shows messages from both parties. So have a look at your own history - if it's got your messages to the seller and the seller's to you, then chances are they get both sides of the conversation too. So it could be their screenshot, not yours.

Here you go Spacey. This won't put you over the limit.

That's "emperor's new clothes" style transparency.

Guess that if a group of guys want to call themselves dull, get on the internet and swap pictures of cups of tea, it's not hurting anyone. Kind of weird, but at least they're talking to someone. Better to be dull and talking than being dull and alone.

Start your own, Peter. Call it the "Slightly more interesting than 'dull' men's club".

If Trump as president once isn't sufficient proof of the absence of a deity (at least one without a sense of humour), then praying for him to not get in again isn't going to work.

The climate change debate continues.

Your mum took seriously something that was poked at her in fun. -
Trump voters don't do irony.

Oh, I missed the bit about it being a 24-hour clock. On a normal clock all digit change when the time flicks over from 11:59:59 to 00:00:00 and again when it goes from 09:59:59 to 10:00:00. That would be 2. For a 24-hour clock you'd have 10:00:00, 20:00:00 and 00:00:00. So 3?
