Sallubrious

I feel locked out of information all the time, the information is still there but search engines have their filters in place to ensure approved information gets noticed first.

Of course the world's fucken flat, every time I bury my head in the sand I get to see it from underneath.

Maybe it's the MJ-12 group that Kennedy locked horns with before they whacked him ? Trump didn't have much choice as far as Flynn was concerned, if he kept backing him he would have lost all credibility as he would have been seen to be endorsing someone who'd lied about matters of state. It looks like the inner circle still has its grip on the reigns though.

Bill Kristol: White Working Class Should Be Replaced by Immigrants It seemed to work OK in Newcastle. I just heard today the 7th ex BHP worker I used to work with has necked himself. Australian men are mostly redundant as are American men, so why not let the immigrants have the so called jobs. Let the immigrants have Australia & America I say. It's way too late to stop those policies, they're the way of the future. 2 party preferred systems will set that in stone.

Is it OK to punch Skippy in these politically correct times ? Everyone's probably seen it by now so I won't post the youtube vid. I would have hit the bastard too. I've seen roos get dogs in a headlock like the one in the vid and normally it doesn't end well for the dog. I've seen dogs disembowelled or get a fractured pelvis & or leg bones. Normally it all happens very fast and the dog comes off second best. It wasn't even a very good punch, my Mrs hits harder than that.

It's been nudging 46 degrees here too a few times this year. Official BOM data is saying 43 for nearby areas so I don't know where they keep their thermometers. One of the only things I watch MSM news for is the weather reports & they seem rather quiet on the big picture about what's driving all this weather. When we're in El nino they harp on about that but aren't we supposed to be mid way through the ENSO cycle ? It's the first year I've seen an established Opuntia lose turgor and then get sunburnt because the pads have all drooped and then decide to abort 2/3 of itself to survive.

Well the black American kid obviously represents Obama and that's reinforced by the fact that you were worried about being PC with him. The matchstick 100% represents your subconscious guilt about being white, I mean if you didn't feel guilty surely you would have gone for the choc chip cookie. The white American who stole the 10 bucks represents Trump and your repressed desire to punch the crap out of him and correct the injustice done in the election where the democrats couldn't buy an election win (with the stolen $10) and reinstall Obama as the leading puppet/muppet. So if you have that dream again just eat the cookie, click your heels three times and when you wake up order will be reinstalled in the universe and the earth will again be the utopia it was meant to be before Biff got the almanac.

Turnbull has come out this morning and said the refugee deal is still going through even though Trumps doesn't like the idea. I'm just wondering what leverage Turnbull could possibly have to force his hand & why the yanks even considered it in the first place. What did we bring to that deal ? More military bases or hardware here, nukes based here or something else ? A free trade deal would seem to be off the agenda at the moment with the way Trump is & they already have free access to our markets, so what could we possibly offer the yanks to make that trade worthwhile for them ?

Now they're saying Trump hung up on Turnbull over a disagreement about the refugee resettlement. Trumps hangs up on Turnbull After the PR machine here telling us how it was all hunky dory between the two and the agreement was still going through. Who would have thought the media or the liberals would lie to us.

We at least they had the foresight not to ban guns. What could possibly go wrong with everyone being armed to the hilt ?

Getting a bit off topic but still relevant. I've posted about this here before. Does anyone remember Peter Beter and his audio letters ? When he spoke/wrote them he was of the firm belief that after the Bolsheviks/industrialists had been kicked out of Russia they took up residence in Europe & the US and installed their puppets in all levels of government especially in the US. He was predicting US aggression against Russia around 40 years ago and he believed there was still the same Russian politics playing out on world stage with the Bolsheviks using installed political puppets to do their bidding from abroad. It's not a great stretch of the imagine to join the dots and see a similar picture to what Beter saw way back then given the information we now have at our disposal. I certainly wouldn't want the Bolsheviks to resume the level of power they once had either, they made Hitler look like an amateur. I believe there have been a few questionable Russian deployments but they are also struggles with their own union, so it's a different type of aggression to US wholesale international scorched earth policies listed in the link above. .

^ there's a few notable omissions from that list Lokstok posted too. The battle of Okinawa in WW2 probably should have made the list. The mass exterminations in Indonesia maybe didn't fit the criteria but could have warranted a footnote because of the sheer size of the atrocity and the numbers of people killed. Then there's been literally thousands of quasi official military incursions into South America for various reasons, control of political figures and securing resources, docks, mines etc. Then there's the perpetual CIA/cocaine wars that no-one ever hears about. Russia has a long sordid history too. Recent history has been very tame compared to the days when the union was forged and earlier. If someone did some digging I'm sure they could paint an equally shameful list of Russian atrocities both against foreign powers and their own countrymen.

That doesn't look the best specimen to start with @sillysyban , I'd be tempted to source a healthier younger plant and plant it out in late winter to early spring. Your location says south WA and from what I've seen when I was there much of Perth and the surrounding area is a big sandy basin, so if you're in or near Perth it will need a fair bit of TLC if you plant it in that type of soil now. Tree's do better when they are transplanted in cooler weather. When you get out of Perth some areas have really heavy clay and others have some really nice soil, so it will depend on where you are. I f it dries out before winter it will die & if stays too wet for too long it could die too. It might surprise you though, if you can find a good spot for it and keep the water up to it, it might get its roots in and kick. & yes I'd cut all that old sickly looking growth off it when I plant it out. Narrow phyllode acuminata can handle a fairly aggressive pruning if it's not done too often.

With the festive season upon us and Aussie culture coercing us to drink way too much piss a few tips to avoid hangovers could help a few. I happen to have quite a bit of experience in this field so maybe someone will get some benefit from my years of research. 1. Drink Vodka or Gin - these distilled spirits are low in cogeners and other compounds known to cause problems the day after. 2. Drink water in between drinks or water your Vodka down a bit with water. 3. Try to limit cigarettes when drinking, when you get on the piss it's easy to smoke way too much which can itself make you sick for hours. You just tend not to notice the effects of the tobacco when you are pissed, it gets you the next day. 4. This is possibly the best tip I have stumbled upon. Mix some salt into a glass of water and drink it at the last moment before bed after your last piss, make it a very salty mix - about 1/4 tsp of salt to a glass of water. I use Himalyan salt, but any salt should do. It has several modes of action. Anyone with renal problems will probably want to avoid this step. If you have really overdone it and have drunk way too much it can have an emetic effect and make you hurl while you are conscious so you don't spew on yourself in bed or choke on your own vomit. For me the most important effect of the salt is that it works to prevent dehydration. If you just drink plain water before bed chances are that you will wake in a few hours for a piss then drink some more water because you are parched and then repeat that in cycles every two hours or so. The salt water alters the osmotic balance of your system and will make you retain water almost all night. That way you get a good night's sleep without waking up for the dreaded drink & piss cycle all night. When you wake you will also be hydrated much better than you would if you just drank water. As paradoxical as it sounds too much plain water can actually help cause dehydration (especially when combined with alcohol) because your kidneys are working double time to eliminate the excess water and the alcohol. None of this is backed by any formal research just me using myself as a crash test dummy for years.

Sorry to hear about that Stu I'll give you a full refund tomorrow. Just out of curiosity what booze did you did you drink and how much salt did you have ? & were you drinking on the wicked hot night where the temp rose from 8pm to midnight the night before the hangover?

If you intentionally do a brew with the fogg, I'll stand in for any friends that don't have what it takes.

Wasn't it a real tear jerker to watch obama give his sidekick a medal of freedom the other day. It was like watching Batman give Robin a kiss on the cheek or the Lone Ranger give Tonto a reach around while he fucked him up the arse. I was hoping the viewers would all vote to have biden killed off like robin but instead they give him a smiley stamp on the hand. There's a plot twist no-one expected. At least when Forest Gump got his medal he was the star and not the sidekick. obama should get several nominations for oscars this year himself, best actor, best sore loser, best white mans bitch

Tony Abbott's severed ballbag ? No doubt bitten off by an undercover nationalist midget in a sand coloured mankini Lets hope the seeds are sterile. I thought that $2.50 bet would be safe, I've got to start associating with a higher class of midgets.

I had no idea about Tassie not having white ants that attack buildings. You learn something every day.

If I could wake up to that view every morning, I'd ditch 90% of my possessions consider myself lucky to live there. Nice work on the footing & piers that's awesome man! Are you planning on capping the piers with white ant caps/ or insulators etc ? White ants get a taste for hardwood very fast, especially if any moisture is being wicked up anywhere.

Something is having a munch by the looks of that, mites being the prime candidate. It's looks like you've got it in a greenhouse too, that would also favour mites. Jurema can handle full sun from day one, even full mid summer sun. That thing won't handle full sun now as it's not acclimatised but if you can find a spot with similar light intensity outside the greenhouse and put it there for a while chances are the mites/pests will all fuck off.

Good one Cubism, I agreed with you and then you completely misinterpreted what I'd written and then felt compelled to prove yourself right. I did state that what I was referring to was not neurogenesis and tried to find some middle ground without alienating the OP from his own thread. I'd had well over 30 legal servings of alcohol before I wrote that and now it's like I'm on trial for a semantic "slip of the tongue' so to speak. I stopped coming here because of this holier than thou shit before, it might be time to leave for good this time. & people wonder why this place is dying out.
