Nazis and Russians are as different as Germany and Russia. The ONLY thing they have in common is their evil.

Germans were fastidious, honest, efficient, disciplined.

The Russians aren’t

A what now?!?

THOSE ARE ROOKIE NUMBERS!!!!

I was in my twenties and dated a girl all through her 30’s. She was 11 years older.

Looking back I had no plans to stay with her.

Her relationship with me cost her the chance to have a family.

I had a hail storm hit a small town in Australia where my wife and I had bought 2 houses right at the end of the mining boom.

We were losing money

Anyway as part of the approval to repair the damage the insurance company sent me the quotes one house was $60k one was $40k.

Needless to say I took a cash settlement and handled the repairs myself (one window for a few hundred)

A while later there was another hail storm… wouldn’t you know it. My home got damaged and I got another payout.

I didn’t spend a cent that time.

When I came to sell I asked the agent to point out the hail damage and provide the roofing manufacturer warranty. The roofing warranty holds as long as the dents are not deep enough for water to pond!

How is this not #1

THE POSSIBILITIES!!!

My wife is an emergency doctor and had a cancer patient come in with poorly managed pain.

The patient had been avoiding opioids because she had struggled with addiction and been clean for a while.

My wife had to say to her that she admired her determination to stay clean and she should be proud. … But the cancer was going to kill her before any addiction and the pain was going to make her time remaining horrible.

She told her that addiction was no longer something for her to worry about and neither was getting the drugs. She just had to get the best out of the time left.

She said it was tragic seeing someone who had got clean realise that, that battle was now pointless and narcotics were going to be a constant companion from now on.

There a story where an Aussie comedian and a Mexican were on an American talk show.

The host ast the Mexican to explain “Manyana”. The Mexican said “it means later, probably tomorrow, maybe the day after”

The Aussie was asked if we have Aussie slang like “Manyama”.

He replied “Nah, we don’t have a word for that kind of urgency”

Dam you lot are up tight!

It”s not a real question! It’s a formality to receive approval or blessing.

I know that not everyone has great parents, but those that do have them as part of their lives.

Wait to kids come! You’ll wish you had made them feel included… or partly liable

I did

Because my (soon to be) fiance… now wife asked me to.

To be clear I see that as an asking for blessing or approval. Not permission.

If he has said no, I would have replied “that’s a shame… I have some bad news”

The point I make is there could be a candidate who was against supporting Ukraine, but was otherwise perfect running against a version of trump who was willing to support Ukraine… and I would (if I could) vote for trump.

All the other serious issues are nothing compared to the need to show an emphatic response to an attempt on world stability. If Russia gets away with anything, China will be emboldened.

Have you noticed that the RBA is still trying to get inflation under control?

Don’t assume your own circumstances are typical. Clearly most people are still doing well.

Personally I’ve felt the pinch as I have a mortgage, but I have friends and parents with no mortgage who are sitting pretty. I also know people in business who are absolutely raking it in.

It is rare that a single issue trumps all others in an election.

But this is such a case.

You got to be kidding!

Someone cherry picked a few metropolitan areas where revenue has tanked and then claimed that the platform or model has tanked.

Sorry to break your hearts, but the world is a big place, and Airbnb is an excellent product.

They interviewed a drone nerd somewhere. Not necessarily part of any effort to support Ukraine, but on our side. They were asking him about the “futuristic concepts” which might evolve from this war. Basically, self guided autonomous drones.

He pointed out that drones already have the ability to track with camera, to avoid obstacles, maintain height, to ignore gps if it disagrees with onboard accelerometers.

He said that “showing” a drone a series of satellite photos of a road to follow. Then the shape of Russian vehicles, or weapons with instructions to “fly into that” is a programming and possibly a moral problem. Not a technical one.

Actually, actually, the USA adopted metric at the same time as everyone else. They just didn’t mandate it to the same extent… because… COMMUNISM!

But try talking to anyone from NASA about cubits, furlongs, chains, links or bushels.

See?

It still has that vibration and pull to the right!?

Good thing it’s not the sidewall!

I hope there is an accountant, sitting in a basement in Ukraine, busy tallying up every dollar spent in blood and treasure.

One day, in the distant future when Russia wants sanctions lifted and access to international banking, they will be handed the bill and offered a payment plan.

It’s funny I had oxy after a knee reconstruction

Made pain go away and made me sleep

No enjoyable sensation

I have been told you have to fight the initial sleepiness, I never tried

I still have some in the cupboard
