is there a better worldwide news service than Aljazeera? I think not.

Can Gina buy it?

Hell, they have Wogan (big for Eurovision)

Funny how the often-bombed is now becoming the most credible news source, and attracting the most dedicated journalists. The East is exerting influence, and Australia is the BEST placed nation to be in a place of advantage - if only our populace and pollies have the willingness to be smart about it.

[shmoo]

no chance of Australia capitalising on it. far too US focussed.

honestly, it is THE best news service. BBC has it's place, particularly with feature articles etc, but their breaking news stuff leaves a lot to be desired. CNN is, despite what one initially thinks, not half bad in the breaking news segment.

SBS will continue to be my source of Australia news. As far as i'm concerned, there is no other option.

^ Australia as a credible Southern Hemisphere news hub - we are in the unique position of being both part of Asia/Oceania and the Southern Hemisphere, something I hope brighter minds than mine are working on above parochial politics...

Seeing as I haven't renewed my sponsorship, I'm getting banner ads at the moment - one is of the new Bindi Irwin show on ABC 3. Is she 18 yet?

Pub-
Just got a call from the wife and while she was looking for a parking spot at Morley Centro and an older lady tried to back into a spot than quickly pulled out and went 4 spots down and parked- the lady than got out of her car and hurried off into the shops. My wife than drove to the spot she first passed up and had a look and down was a bike (didnt tell me what kind) pissing petroel and front end all smashed up. She went in and told security asap.

Hopefully the old lady was going in to tell security the same thing but i doubt it

Not cool eh that was my whinge.

[Captain Starfish]

Hopefully she got the old bint's rego down...

[madden]

yeah she did plus they have camera all over those parking garages so for her sake i hope she was going to fess up.

[Desmo]

She leave a note on the bike?
Fuck the old lady.

Sup pub?

I'm thinking of getting spotify premium. Anyone hear use it?

I here it's pretty shit.

[madden]

She leave a note on the bike?
Fuck the old lady.



.

Nope no note -hope the bike didnt belong to anyone on here.

[browncow]

Did she write a note for the bike owner with said rego and an explanation that the car that did it pulled a hit and run and she was a witness?

[Desmo]

Nope no note -hope the bike didnt belong to anyone on here.

So what was the point in getting the rego number?
You really expect a bunch of shopping centre hobby bobbies to do anything about it?

[madden]

yeah good point -lesson for next time- she had the little ones with her so maybe she also didnt feel like haning around in a car park in morley.

[madden]

sorta good ending- when i got home the mrs told me she went and told security and they went out to have a look and the rider was out there at his bike . She was able to point out the car that did the damage.

Fuck I need a drink, whilst making a nice pork belly roast I somehow forgot to remove the pad from the meat. MMmmm melted plastic sanitary product. Then after writing a diatribe about how fucked the company is in regards to training (on webmail) it timed out. Logged in and all my text gone from the draft. Gave me3 minutes to think. Having pressed 'send' may have become a career limiting move.
