The joke reads better if one uses the American term they use for sqrt - "root".

That's only part of the equation. {b4 i (sqrt U)} RU/18

Just found out that the latest edition of allowable words for the game of Srabble has included the word "CHUNGUS', which means 'a large or overweight person'. Possibly a replacement word for POTUS??

That could be turned into a good cryptic crossward clue: What is 3.14 + 9.81?

Will someone rescue Albo from this thread drift?

This is the story from 1917 to 1948, with some comments about pre-WWI events.

I think that a problem we have at present in forming opinions about the situation impacting Israel at present is that we only seem to be aware of what has happened over rthe past few years. This thing has been going on since 1946. Fro decades in Australia we knew very little of what was happening because what was happeniung didn't impact us. So, to bettwen inform our current opinions, we must look back into history to see what was going on in those years and how it was affecting the people involved. The attached video was made by the United Nations in 1978, focusing on how those events involved created the conditions which exist into the Present. The video focusses on the Palestinians. I think it is pretty even-handed - lacking great bias. I think it is well worth the watching as an aid to the creation of your opinion. You can be sympathetic or not to the story, as long as watching it helps you wirth your opinion.

Wasn't Peta Credlin blasting Albo for not having had a face-to-face meeting with Trump? Meetings with Trump are at Trump's request (command???). He's the one who allocates time at the 19th for important meetings with staunch allies.

There is a lot of pole replacement going on in my area, which means day-long power outages. At least the power supplier gives plenty of advance warning. The next such outage is on 20 October.

Cash is still used by small retailers. I work at an Op Shop and the majority of our transactions are in cash since most purchases are under $10. We do have EFPOS facilities. We have one bank in town. It is part of that Bendigo Bank system. All the other major banks are 60 kms away in Dubbo. Because my banking is through a credit union in Sydney, I can't exchange my own small change for notes at either the bank or the post office in my town. The banks going over to all digital is a move for which they have not considered the unintentional consequences, especially as they affect rural communities.

Hasn't this topic drifted off the theme a bit? No knocking the power generation topic, but we should be getting back to Albo.

Trump addressed the General Assembly of the UN. I've only seen snippets of his speech, but the overall impression I got was that he was very successful in bolstering the impression held by the rest of the World's leaders that he is an absolute buffoon and has succeded in making the USA a laughing stock.

Put the nut onto the bolt before you cut the bolt to length. Then unscrew the nut and you'll deburr the thread as te nut comes off.

Never trust a phone number a bird gives you. I did once and got through to the City Morgue.

Do you get Mexican eggs from a chicka-chitta?

The Leader of the Frre World has deigned to give the leader of one of the USA's staunchest allies fifteen minutes of his time in 20 October. Albo was diplomatic in responding to the length of time it has taken for this meeting to be arranged, saying the Trump is busy trying to restrore peace in a troubled world. I wonder if Albo will wear a business suit or opera tails to the meeting, or should he go in national costume: T-shirt, shorts and thongs?

Yeah. I barely ever read your posts here.

What about the original Apple Corps of the 1960s? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_Corps

Just got back home after driving from Sydney - about 6 hours - and have a screaming headache. I took a paracetamol tablet. I hope I'm not pregnant.

Krispy-Kreme is another American food seller that failed in Australia. I don't know how the company has survived here at all.

The value of any object depends solely on what the purchaser thinks it is worth.

I saw some video of Trump at Windsor Castle. It showed him to be the epitome of the stereotypical Ugly American. His complete lack of attention to diplomatic protocols when dealing with the leader of a country. He actually grabbed King Charles by the arm during the hand shake. He walked ahead of the King during the inspection of the guard while looking so bored. His carriage ride around the grounds of Windsor Castle has been likened to a Disneyland ride. The thing I enjoyed most was the projection of Trump/Edelstein pictures on the walls of the castle.

Back in the day, it was common practice each morning to glance over the Births, Deaths and Marriages in the newspaper. It is becoming a habit, on this forum, to check this thread each morning for that sort of information. Births, Deaths and Mrriages was also known as "Hatches, Matches and Dispatches".

Is it still the hot-air ballooning capital of Australia?
