That sounds f### torturous, mate, and I hope something pops up independent of that rancid little network that principal seems to be running. Just rest assured though - if you feel you're doing it right and by the book, and doing it for the betterment of the kids and they respond well to the...

Must revisit this game. Used to love turning out all the lights, move the chair so that my feet were actually on the big screen TV, and then try to suppress a scream and not wake up the baby after 45m trying to dodge the alien ends up a glorious failure...

I'm a 54yo with a wife who enjoys sitting on the couch watching her husband play video games...thank you, yes, my life is awesome... She got right into HFW while I was playing it, and insisted I revisit HZD because she wanted to follow the backstory. I ummed and uhhed...got a few games sitting...

You know what this is reminding me of? The BD test in 1983, when Border and Thommo put on a last wicket partnership that nearly won the match. Cummins is better than Thommo, and Labuschagne has made a couple of decent innings this summer, but like Border the knives have been out and right now...

So part two of the story... Got to the end of 2023, and was well and truly over that school. It was very clear, with a couple of dominant STEM-pushing anti-arts hods that admin loved, that music and the arts was doomed to be a filler with no support. Added to that, my ex-wife was adamant our...

Read the How Few Remain series by Harry Turtledove...research the order of the titles carefully, because the sequence isn't obvious from the names of the books. It's about half a dozen books starting from the Civil War going past WW2, all starting from a single sliding door moment where a Union...

The Suns and Giants convinced fta bidders to increase the billions of dollars they were spending on TV coverage. Nine game package and stronger presence in the Northern states, ensuring blanket coverage of more than 3/4 of Australia's population simultaneously and a huge carrot fta could swing...

Outside the AFL, Launceston and I'd assume the entire northern half of the state sells nothing at all...Hobart probably unlikely too... I'm in FNQ, and the local rugby league team is the Tully Tigers. I can go into the local clothing store in town and they have a little section where the rugby...

The length of this season for me is the only reason the Cats didn't win the flag...

True! It's a ridiculous stat though...go back through the years and the amount of times a runner up has saved their best early game for the rematch...! The derby and Anzac Day too...the TAB must brace themselves on those weekends...!

Double strength coffee and ladder predictor, trying not to look at the progressive, says: SYD - 15 HAW - 14 BRIS, CARL, WB - 13 ADEL, FREO, GEEL, PORT - 12 COLL, ESS, GWS, GC, STK, WC - 11 MELB - 10 NM - 8 RICH - 7 No percentages, so my gut top eight is: SYD, HAW, BRIS, CARL, WB, PORT, GEEL...

Pretty much spot on! Our science, however, is based upon the assumption that what we see is what we get...by the time the light reaches us, it's a record of what happened when it first started its journey, and the real mindfuk happens when we realise that what we see right now in the sky isn't...

1936 Huon, I think...don't have it in front of me...the GF was poorly organised with both the ball and the umpire not arranged! Some guy who showed up as a spectator was recruited as the umpire (like Luke Pomersbach when he went to that T20I...!), and they had to get someone to drive to another...

I found a few in Tassie just before WW2 where games were wrapped up at half time because the opposition was too depleted due to players joining the army! Mercy rule, apparently...they wanted a game but not a thrashing. The NW copped it hardest. Wynyard one year was a mile ahead of its...

How many of you guys voted No?

Sorry, Captain Buzzkill here. I just can't see the point of Gather Round!

Who knows! Consider this though - famous brains, and others not so famous but fairly renowned in scientific circles, are consistent in stating that if the conditions exist elsewhere, then the same types of processes could occur. So even if the grouping of compounds to form DNA in carbon based...

Oh, ok...maybe I should read back a bit before assuming I'm just rebutting a right winger...!

You can't just look at a thread title leading onto 150 pages you don't bother reading and make a comment on the wussiness of the posters who've contrib....... ...hang on....

No. If you don't like it, you call it out. Then, if everyone's on board, left and right, you fix it using conciliation and dialogue... The notion that everyone has to conform to the status quo an individual might agree with, which is different to conforming to a majority, is the height of...

Champion, plus I get a new source...! Thanks man...

Hey all, As the title says. I've only got one, but I might be back. I'm writing several books on Tasmanian football and want a ridiculous amount of detail... Presently, I'm putting together the carnival teams for 1924 in Hobart, and I've got the players' clubs identified except for one guy...

This is one of my favourite absolutely pointless but fascinating time wasting topics...! 4 billion years of life struggling to grow on this rock, and all it would take is one reaction in the sun to produce a super sized solar flare that hits the Earth and that's it, the planet is sterilised in...

No religion whatsoever. It's my conundrum as someone who also backs choice. Thing is, humanity trumps certain freedoms...my choice is to go kill someone, but sorry, they tell me I can't do that...my freedom to hard all of my well earned cash is compromised by taxation and assistance... So for...

Can be, certainly gets a headline from those who want it to push an agenda. However, it's also a statement of fact if you also consider that this discrimination is a hard-wired human characteristic coming from the most basic survival instinct, a distrust of those outside the tribe...every...

Hmmm...there are exceptions, but it kinda does, actually...! The "right" comes from the original French Court definition, where the King's most trusted men would stand on his right and back him rigidly...the left more likely to disagree. So the right backs the establishment, therefore "the way...

How does that stack up in the 21st century, when we can actually dig a child from the womb and artificially support it from a point significantly before that? Tellingly, you've used the word "can"...child mortality is a thing, obviously, and our medical knowledge is designed to save life in a...

Had this conversation with my wife only last night, after our son-in-law said he was going to keep his Ned Kelly beard but shave his head and she said "you'll look like a Muslim!"...he said "that's racist", and then of course the usual M-in-law v S-in-law battle that's gone on since cavemen...

I don't even pretend that I could properly empathise with the women in this position, so I don't bang on about pro-life or pro-abortion.....unlike just about everything else, I know when to shut up... I will only ever ask one question though, because the answer is there - when is the exact...

Got a few somewhere which got turned into DVD, and then stripped again...
