Congratulations man, they are wonderful. They kind of remind me of something....... deja vu hahahahahaha great job!!

couldn't agree more - there's a lot of interesting free stuff out there but the good commercial grade stuff usually sounds better on the whole One virtual modular synth that really impressed me is Vaz Modular. It's fairly intuitive to use and can be used as a vst plugin inside a sequencer host or stand-alone, has it's own effects (which can process external inputs), has it's own sequencer and sounds rich, phat, fantastic. It's a small enough download, should be available on torrents here and there. Seems like it went into some kind of maintenance phase several years ago and hasn't been maintained since, but is still stable enough to rely on.

Good communication is critical to smooth trading. If something is going to be late for whatever reason, let the recipient know in advance instead of having them return from the mailbox disappointed and wondering if they've been ripped off. It doesn't take much to keep people informed but it makes a big difference to the overall experience. That said, if you've traded with someone (especially for cash in advance) why wouldn't it be a priority for you to get the package out to them ASAP? Anything much longer than 2 weeks is pushing it IMO. EDIT: I also find it helps when ppl msg once they've posted, then you have a better idea of when to expect the item(s)

Love a good doco, I can recommend the following - Between the Folds - a doco about origami (of all things!?) - its beauty, complexity and some incredible applications to science (http://www.greenfusefilms.com/) The Daddy of Rock n Roll - the heartwarming story of pschizophrenic artist Wesley Willis HATED - interesting look at the scat punk artist/fucking idiot GG Allin, student doco Shamans of the Amazon (Dean Jefferys) - locally produced doco about aya and DMT, including live experience reports, Terrence McKenna interviews etc Also, pretty much any of the TED talks have that mind-blowing ability too

and time - I think you're being a bit impatient. Perhaps use a shallower container (oven tray etc), less soil and definitely a heat mat.... Don't expect anything for at least a few weeks and try to resist the urge to look at them daily. I've dropped containers and spilled the babies before with my unecessary checking. Don't over-mist either, or the seedlings will rot. All the best, it's really not that hard in the end.

Link It's crazy the lengths they're going to for a legal big night out. The mere thought of a pack of meat head rugby players out on the town together under the influence of a stilnox/red bull/alcohol combo is bloody frightening!

Stupid thing is that such a combo induces a delerium that prevents the experiencer from literally knowing what they're doing, making the whole thing a pointless and extremely risky exercise... this coupled with their powerful bodies, juvenile nature, violent tendencies, pack mentality etc makes for frightening possibilities

I'm immensley enjoying this thread and its revelations keep em coming

Online News story The drug testing bit is obviously not the focus of the article, but this is a bit of a bombshell, no?

This was my understanding too and upon searching around the web for swab tests I've found a myriad of detection windows mentioned, from 1 day to 30 days... so I'm a little confused. Obviously it will depend on personal metabolism, cumulative uses and swab test types, but it seems hard to get consistent general stats.

Cool, thanks for clearing that up. It may still be slightly worrying for the regular MJ users out there: Blood Testing Cannabis is detectable in the blood for approximately 2-3 days after use in an infrequent user. Frequent use can be detected in the blood for approximately 2 weeks.

These are mandatory drug blood tests, which I believe will show a positive for certain substances (ie: MJ) long after the affect has worn off..... So if you've toked MJ sometime in the last 6 weeks and are unfortunate enough to have an accident, you will likey be prosecuted for having it in your blood at the time of the accident, despite the fact that it was not related to the accident at all!

Unfortunately I think you over-estimate the average modern person in this modern materialistic society... most people would rather get as much $$$ from someone as a way to 'get justice' than criminally prosecuting to the extent of the law, especially with the knoweldge that the accused has a LOT of money to throw around.... I reckon advice would have been received at some stage that said the quickest and easiest way to get a lot of money out of the situation would be to aim for something out of court, and to hell with criminal prosecution Why would an innocent person ever consider that? I don't want to buy into the debate over whether he was a pedo or not, but I think it's just as bad to trial him as guilty OR innocent with mere speculation

Not at all. In all honesty I believe he was a very misunderstood individual and an interesting example of what a very twisted life experience can do. I'm not casting aspersions one way or the other on the pedophile accusations, just sharing the obligatory bad jokes when something like this happens. Such as: What do Michael Jackson and the Collingwood Football Club have in common? They are both black and white and die mid year. and so they continue....

I heard he died from food poisoning, apparently he had been chewing on some 12 year old nuts. Ba-doom tish

When he died they melted him down to make plastic toys so all the kids could play with HIM for once

It's all too obvious when you see em slouching around the streets of tassie wearing faded adidas tracksuits with spoons and bottles of water stashed in their pouches

I got tickets to the 3rd show in melbourne The first 2 shows sold out in 45 mins total. Thats 110,000 tickets in 45 mins which is over 40 per second - and at an average of $125 per ticket thats $5000 per second = $300,000 per minute = $1 million every 3.5 minutes = $17 million per hour No wonder they're consistently in the BRW top 20 rich list Anyway, should be a blast! Gonna rock up in stonewash jeans and flanny in me ute, pissed on VB, smokin winnie blues and choof, with me mullet hair cut and moccasins etc...

#3 for me please! Thanks again VS

Yeah I second that. If we get it for $250 (hopefully much less) that would be $25 each which is what most of us seem happy enough to go up to. Good luck with the bidding VS, I'll be watching

I'm in too, I think that makes 10 of us I'm happy to chip in $20. As Bit said, it will be a real bastard to dig out properly, would be much easier taking cuttings to re-root. Cool, let me know how I can be of assistance - I'm in front of a PC all day and have won my fair share of ebay auctions. I think the best tact is to lay quiet for the auction, then put your maximum bid in with about 5 seconds to go. Dibs on not doing the pick up bit though... Cheers

Hahahahaha very nicely said mate!

Hi guys, I'm not going to make it.... we've just moved bush and have had to come in to the city nearly every day since for various things and I'm over it and just wanna spend 2 days in a row at home without 2+ hours of driving. Also getting the car put on gas this weekend, so might even be without wheels anyway. Apologies, have a blast....

I couldn't get beyond 30 seconds of this shit
