There is an Ironman comp on today. I'm not long home from witnessing the Port D. end of it.

The comp was made up of a 3.8km swim somewhere off the coast between here and Cairns. Followed by a 180km ride which meant the riders passed us by twice here at Port being the turnaround for them. Finished with a 42.5km run from somewhere down near Ellis Beach and finishing somewhere around Cairns.

The last rider round the second turnaround and on to the final 70km of the ride was an 81 year old Japanese man  O_O ... he didn't look any worse for wear than some over half his age. Pacing himself to finish the ride and go onto the run stage . Mind boggling the amount of riders over 40 years.

Britain and the USA hold their voting day during the working week. It's a tradition that suited their environment. We on the other hand choose the weekend and notably in contemporary times choose weekends when peeps may or may not be distracted by sporting events or just holidays in general ;)

lol. ... but I was waitingk for you to show seehund

Hah heh ... with the swiftness of a Chanel boomerang ! ... straight to the back of the stars :P~~

 

I do not relate to the streaker mentality at all. I hope that dipshit draped in the Aussie flag is at least fined to the billio for wiggling his bum to the world.

There's video of that floating around. He's not so much a streaker as a mooner. Still a dickhead, though.

 

Yep. Saw a pic only which should have been a clue for me ;) He's apparently a serial offender of shit behaviour.

No laptops as cabin luggage says our fearless leader Turnpoo

Crikey ! I wouldn't trust the average baggage handler with my suitcase with laptop in it :\  ... but really - speaking as a Luddite who doesn't own the latest ' phone ' -

don't most manage to do internets on them ( phone )  and not a lappy ? And if so, then doesn't the latest ' phone ' signify as much of an issue as a lappy apparently will ?

Moors Murderer Ian Brady has slipped into hell

SO does the prison system bury them or incinerate their dead ? I sort of hope he's not buried.

The aroma of the business next-door's toasted sandwich maker doing it's thing is a heavenly evil aroma.

Is that cos I fall for the ABC's shoddy re-run of Harry Morgan's death al the time ?

My older sis went to the US when Mash was running hot here. She brought me back one of their t-shirts. Drab olive green with the Mash logo.

I wore that thing till it fell to pieces,

Allan Arbus could make me cry when he was on it.

Also I logged on tonight...

 

They all logged out in shock at your approach ... " nobody came !! "   :P ~

I think    is great viewing. Thanks for the reminder . Our Aus, Gov. could do with a reminder of it.

Right bloody now really :)

At the end , I am all for removing any barrier that stands in the way of equality
But women are their own worst enemy, they tell each other that they must concern themselves with appearance and behaviour. Men do give a shit how they look

The nature of women makes them more nurturing, while men are more aggressive
We are not going to simply give control to you

Women take years off for child raising
While men climb the corporate ladder


Women believe the myth that you can have it all, family and power
Nup, to have one, you need to sacrifice the other. Examples Gillard Bishop, neither had children

A proof of your point ... http://www.abc.net.a...lection/8338698

""I feel like, honestly, I still have much more to give," she said.

"But during the next parliamentary term, [my son will] start school and he'll need to be in Adelaide. And I will need to be in Canberra if I'm the member for Adelaide.

"When I thought about all the things that I would I miss, I just decided that it would make me quite miserable."

Ms Ellis said she would wait until the election to step down, stating in a letter to her constituents that she had "no intention of causing a by-election".

Black men cannot swim here. Everybody else is welcome.

 

FTFY

For the sign to be saying " cannot", there'd need to be a red line diagonally through the diagram.

This man had soooo much talent. He played soooo many people. And he is imo the most horribly cold

bad ass Villian out there. His accent lent itself to chilling cold.

I'm glad to have seen lots of your work Sir John and look forward to revisiting it all.

Thankyou :(

I salute you Sir John Hurt.

Fuck FedEx.

Everyone have a good national patriotic day or just get drunk

Was an oppressive 30c late last night, so to wake up to a wetish morning feels pretty good. May 'chuck ' the vacuum around the place

this arvo to free up my weekend. Right now tho, not totally sold on that idea... might well do nothing whatsoever ;)

 

Having just done some vacuuming, I strongly suggest you don't!

 

seconded.
