  2. Hyped up the Ford v Expensive Daewoo on the adds..."the show you've all been waiting for" And there I was, thinking I'd actually get some information from that show.... got sweet FA. (apart from the fact that psuedo Hamster dosn't know sh1t about how to launch a phoon.) All in all, a gutless effort I think. it's now "the show were all still waiting for" next time pseudo James May picks up a texta and paper for the show, they should break his fingers. pseudo-Clarkson remainds me too much of darryl eastlake; both annoying in the extreme. Aus-stig has the most screen presence and personallity out of the lot of 'em. All this would be OK if it were funny. But it aint. P.S Sadly, it's still better television than 95% of the cr@p on free to air.
  3. You're not that old Brad!!? C-64 elite a revolution when it came out. discs of tron, I'd love to find one of those cabinets floating around.....
  4. we call 'em tricky scnapper up here (the giveaway is the blue markings near the eyes) in foil with a bit of butter and lemon slices then in the oven for 20 mins once defosted (depending on size) don't over cook it. tricky_snapper_fish_note.pdf
  5. lol... She bought a liberty turbo sti version, 1 of 250.
  6. People voted labor because the libs had been in for a long time. After a while, people vote to change things because they hope they'll get a better deal, there's also the "tall poppy" syndrome to consider. looking at how the NT and WA elections went recently, I don't think the labor lads will have long in office anyway. (don't let the door hit you on your arse on the way out kevin..)
  7. F'ken classic. was at the ford dealer the other day, helping my missus pick out a new car, man the phoon's look the goods now a days. I'm gussing the 310 on the boot refers to Kws....
  8. Actually... I see probably an equal number of Expensive Daewoo drivers + ford drivers who feel the need to act like twats when I'm in the Evo. Though I must say, the Expensive Daewoo lads at least come and have a go on the track, haven't seen a T there in yonks.... That said it's the commies who ALWAYS drive with the foggies ON.
  9. you're even more paranoid than me! (ggod point)
  10. none of my cars listed here, I'll have to try harder.
  11. If you need to cull a roo, a rifle shot to the head does it quickly and humanely. My dog has chased them in the past, luckily she's to fat old and slow now....(like me) I often wonder about Pig-hunting with dogs and knifes...cops dogs and people ripped open... it's not my cup of tea, people up here seem to love it though. Anybody partake of that sport here?
  12. Haven't seen the vid, don't want to, but the poor thing probably had roo chalymidia, causes blindness, they just stand there or hop in circles....
  13. You think that's wierd, look up "Boltzmann brains"
  14. BS. what's a higgs-boson or two going to do to the time-space continum?
  15. Just make sure your lines to the turbo aren't leaking. I managed to break 3 turbos up here before I got rid of the T.
  16. Argh... don't get me started... Oops too late! 50 deaths this year as opposed to 34 last year. axing the open limit has had sweet FA effect on the road toll. what a *beep*, he may as well have kept going.
  17. Never lost it, Partook of my youthful idiocy in an XB 250 wagon,( pretty hard to be naughty in that, but I managed...) got booked and went to court lots of times, but things were different then, $60 fine, $60 court costs see ya later.... only been booked twice in the last 5 years, 10 kph over in a hurry to get somewhere before closing. Lucky enough to have hidden Valley race days to get it out of my system.
  18. There's only one reason to tell your supervisor you're going for an interview: Your planning to leave anyway.... Once the "boss" knows your looking your commitment to the job will be in question and they'll start looking for your replacement. Or if it's a plumb job your boss may apply for it, or kybosh your chances with a narky phonecall, just out of spite. the first they need know is the day you hand in your resignation.
  19. never sent this one. Opted for "the quiet exit" During my time working at this site, I have endured three wet seasons, budget cuts, board interference with programs, constant harassment to produce results “quicker” and being paraded in front of investors and bankers like a trained monkey. This place is inflicted with more nepotism than a Bengalese carpet shop and strategic planning occurs based on whim. Indeed I do find this job challenging, it’s a challenge not to tell my co-workers who come to me ready to quit that they’d be better off elsewhere and it’s a challenge to try and get my point across without having to threaten to leave every second day. My advice has been constantly questioned, argued with or just ignored. Expectation levels are so high, you’d need to climb a waste dump to even see the top and alternatively, the drama, panic and fear spawned by minor mishaps rivals that caused by the Mongol invasion. I’m constantly second-guessed by a sheep farmer who’s sheep have more honesty and integrity than he does and a geologist who is so old that when he looks at the Proterozic, it’s with fond memories of it’s deposition. To top this lot off, you’ve appointed a Perth Office Parasite to be in charge of me who wouldn’t know “rise mining” from “Plummeting Shareprice.” The company option plan is so far away that astronomers have seen it and named it the 10th planet, “Dubious” and when I read “Dilbert” alas, it’s no-longer with a feeling of ironic familiarity but with jealousy as I compare his lot with mine. Indeed I do have options, in fact two , these are to leave or stay and go insane. I choose life
  20. I'll start, there's heaps of competition for good geologists at the moment in the mining industry, it wasn't always so.... I got lots of letters when I started out, thanks for applying...b;ah blah...tough competition...blah blah.... anyways the tables have turned, check out this old one I used while working for a bunch of twits in Kal: It is with some regret that I am informing you that in this instance, you have been unsuccessful In remaining my employer, I appreciate the efforts that you have gone to in the attempt to secure my continued employment, however the competition for the role of acting as my employer has been quite fierce. Please do not feel that this in any way prejudices me against any future applications on your part to secure the position as my employer and your records shall be kept on file for future reference. Best of luck in your efforts to build a professional, efficient and profitable mining company, you’re going to need it
  21. Pfft. Call it whatever, it's still VFL. Top effort on your part
  22. Thanks for that. Well worth a laugh. I'll even put a bid in for it, despite not being a VFL fan.
  23. well, there's sum'n ya don't see everyday...
  24. Noam Chompski hit it pretty well on the head, Read "Manufacturing Consent" Nobody wants to pay more taxes, so you have to convince them its for their own good....
