The SCG is a shit place to play AFL finals.
One kick from the centre gets you to full forward. You can’t do that at nearly all other grounds in the comp.
That said, I think the Pies are sunk unless Buddy does a groin. The umps should wipe the grease of the bugger before the game starts like a boxing referee. It’s a low grade form of cheating.
Russia did Crimea before Trump and the Ukraine after Trump but didn’t try anything during the 4 years he was President.
Kind of speaks for itself I’d think.
Who is Buddles?
It didn’t turn out to be much of a holiday, Monty just expanded to fill in the gaps.
Who is Buddles?
You need a welcome to country and mental elf training.
Shut up Gez!
Reminds me of Ellery Hanley and Andy Gregory coating the ball in vaseline before the kick off of a Rugby League Ashes Test.
If Buddles is guilty of anything, it’s using some common sense – and within the rules, it would seem.
Watch out Bespoke.
I’ve got my teeth out and a can of Woodstock in hand.
Gez – that last time I was in Perth (Jan 2020) as a guest of Jupes and his better half, he took me to a suburb in Perth where the Weagles training grounds were – to meet his son and girlfriend before heading off to a nearby Cafe for breakfast.
Looking at the training grounds I noticed (it was very difficult not to) a massive, empty and very flat oval next to the main ground that appeared to have been installed recently and with a very particular purpose.
Me: “So who plays cricket there, Squire?”
Jupes: “It’s a purpose built replica, dimension wise, of the MCG, Rabz.”
Constructed purely so the Weagles could train on a ground the size of the MCG, as they rarely played there during the season and if they made the important finals, they’d be playing there.
The Turkeys presumably don’t have that sort of looxury.
So have I.
Watching WestWorld the original.
Yeah, no.
Bit unfair to accuse Eddles of low acts like doxxing, BTW.
He’s had a break, he may have been unwell, for all we know.
A woman goes to the doctor and says “Doctor, my husband is an animal in the bedroom. He wants sex five, six, seven times a day. I love the man and the sex, but it’s just too much. Can you help me?” The doctor replied “Well, medically, I can’t really think of anything. Theoretically, this might work. From now on, whenever he demands sex, demand money. $10 in the kitchen, $30 in the living room, $50 in the bedroom. The man isn’t made of money, that should slow him down”. She agrees and thanks the doctor. Excited, she goes home ready to use his advice. She starts to prepare dinner. Her husband comes home, doesn’t even ask about dinner, but immediately sneaks up behind her, brushes up against her and plays grab ass. She turns to him and says “Honey, I have a new rule regarding sex”. He replies “Okay hon, shoot!” She continues “From now on, I demand money for sex. $10 in the kitchen, $30 in the living room, $50 in the bedroom”. He looks at her and says “Okay, I think you deserve that, you do so much, no problem”. He reaches for his wallet and sees he has a $50 bill in his wallet and hands it to his wife. She says “Okay let’s go up to the bedroom”. He shouts “NO! FIVE TIMES IN THE KITCHEN!!”
Zatara, the Georgia defensive line looks brutal this year.
Ford pardoned d’Aquino when it became clear she was set up by the FBI in 1948 to boost Truman’s re-election chances. The principle witnesses that gave evidence that sent her down for treason were essentially kidnapped from Tokyo:
The FBI: a proud tradition of political policing for the Democrats.

Trigger Warning: Fat Ugly Braindead Lamestream Meeja ALPBC Imbecile
I’m given to understand that Trump told Putin if he played up Moscow would be nuked.
Trump may have been bluffing, but Putin wasn’t sure.
Putin & October
From Martin Armstrong –
“Despite all the propaganda that was put out by John McCain, Putin was selected by Yeltsin because he was being blackmailed on the one side by the oligarchs in July 1999 and the communists on the other who introduced a motion in the Duma to impeach him for corruption that was related to the Bank of New York scandal.
Putin NEVER sought to resurrect the old USSR. In fact, he was the ONLY Russian leader to even criticize Lenin as just a bolshevik who destroyed a great empire of the Tsars. Lost in the pages of history, Russia at the time in 1917 had the largest gold reserves of any nation. Those gold reserves vanished and to this day have not been found. It was believed that they were hidden to prevent the Communists from seizing them.
Putin was there to restore Russia after the oligarchs plundered it and the Harvard boys who advised Russia on how to make the transition from Communism to Capitalism utterly never understood the most basic element of such a transition – the people. Putin’s most important achievement of his 20 years in power was restoring normalcy and stability to Russia. He went after the oligarchs and told them they could keep their money, but to stop interfering in politics.
The unwritten history that has been omitted from all books on the subject is that in 1991 when the USSR collapsed, NATO solicited Russia to join NATO. That was one of the reasons there was a coup for the hardliners saw this would be a surrender of Russia to the USA. That is when Yeltsin stood on the tank and became President. Yeltsin was himself corrupt and he actually facilitated the rise of the oligarchs.
When Yeltsin turned to Putin out of desperation, the people cheered for Putin was neither an oligarch nor a communist. Despite the propaganda from the West, Putin truly enjoyed a 70%+ approval rating for the people neither wanted to lose all freedom to the communists and the oligarchs exploited the people to gain wealth.
Putin has refused to institute a draft to shore up Russian forces. However, despite all the propaganda that pours out of Ukraine, removing Putin will turn Russia very hard right and they are already criticizing Putin for being too soft.”

Just hang on a minute there Rabz. 22 points in it.
… trying to push the workload onto those who challenge his position.
Hang on a flash.
I didn’t make the original comment re Pope, though I do support the gist of it.
This guy is the first Pope to be Pope while the previous Pope is still[?] alive.
So, like Joe Biden isn’t really Prez, he’s not really Pope, though how he got there is fairly well documented.
So, rather than play attack the messenger for meaningless brownie points, find out some basic info about Pope Jorge Bergoglio before hurling abuse.
KD – another quarter, with many many Turkeys goals. 🙂
Wrong.
Wrong (again).
Putin NEVER sought to resurrect the old USSR. In fact, he was the ONLY Russian leader to even criticize Lenin as just a bolshevik who destroyed a great empire of the Tsars.
Strike 1 against Putin.
Lenin was the great man who established the Soviet Union.
Lost in the pages of history, Russia at the time in 1917 had the largest gold reserves of any nation. Those gold reserves vanished and to this day have not been found. It was believed that they were hidden to prevent the Communists from seizing them.
Okaaaay.
Putin was there to restore Russia after the oligarchs plundered it and the Harvard boys who advised Russia on how to make the transition from Communism to Capitalism utterly never understood the most basic element of such a transition – the people.
Rubbish.
Putin was a Communist, a career KGB officer and the successor to Yeltsin, who was a Flamer [and a Drunk].
The achievements of Putin were absolutely Nil up to 24/2/2022, but since then he’s managed to get maybe 50,000 Russian soldiers killed for no good reason.
3/4 time. 23 points down.
Given the Pies have been right here plenty of times before in the back half of this season, I am very comfortable with that.
Er…Putin made his first fortune ripping off the people of his home town, St. Petersburg, on a deal that was supposed to supply them with cooking oil.
Pope Ratzinger was likely a Flamer, but did he have a history or promoting and protecting pederasts?
The evidence just isn’t there.
Tic Tac dick umps are once again parading their inadequacy in big games.
KD – a Cats V Maggies Grand Final may still be a possibility, but the Turkeys have dominated this contest.
Have the maggies been in front at all during the game?
No.
Do they look like pulling off some miracle victory?
Possibly (invoking the evil spirits of that loathsome grotesque hitlerist jug eared imbecile might do it for them).
When you’re covered in twattoos, blessed without teeth or a brain and lerving centrelink long time, you presumably have nothing else to exist for.
The most important part of the Russia/Ukraine war (the economic war) is currently being won by Russia…
Ruble is the strongest performing currency this year, Russian gas companies have shipped less product and turned a greater profit than last year.
Add to that, they are securing new gas and oil trade contracts with China and India.
Europe gets to have the fun of people freezing to death this winter.
As for the kinetic war, the West underestimated Putin.
NATO tried to push too far and now the Ukrainian people suffer.
This could all be over tomorrow if the West stops trying to bully Russia…
“Russia did Crimea before Trump and the Ukraine after Trump but didn’t try anything during the 4 years he was President.
Kind of speaks for itself I’d think.”
Yep……I think Putin and Xi respected Trump. With the Sniffer, there’s no respect which is probably why Putin has gambled.
Do they look like pulling off some miracle victory?
Keep sucking those Woodstocks and it’s all possible.
Is that Munty running on?
Gee, thanks for that, Eddles.
“Albansleazey is likely an Alpaca farmer, but did he have a history of promoting and protecting Thai massage providing chickees*? The evidence could be alleged to be there.”
*Who were later revealed to possess a “middle leg”
16 points Rabz.
We’re well past that point.
Russia has again reiterated that this war won’t be over until they achieve their objectives.
It seems they’ve adopted a crash through or crash posture.
Or they could reassess their objectives over the winter. We’ll see.
Mihocek needs to step up, and step up hard.
Ed-mongs brain surgery binned the wrong bit again?
15.
AFL umpires are pimps for whichever home crowd they’re officiating in front of. The AFL trains them to be mentally weak so they’re receptive to this week’s narrative. AFL umpires are good little Germans.
omg … make it stop.
Ah, that ol’ saying “Never go the gloat until it is actually all over”.
😕
14.
Missing chances though.
Tom, events have just proven your point.
Push in the back and a dropped mark, but let’s give it to the bloke anyway. 20 points.
And the lead blows out twenty, peoples!
KD – “How soon is now?”
Tic Tac dick does it again,
Push in the back and the ball hits the ground. Mark payed naturally.
Daily Mail
MSM is telling the truth [that the Ukesters are winning] but don’t tell you it’s because:
1. Putin is either incompetent to manage a War, or an outright traitor; and
2. The U.S. is pouring weapons into Ukraine.
Yeah, the weapons are being operated by U.S. Troops and the Uke side of the War is being managed by the Pentagon, while the bucolic Ukes are providing the cannon fodder, but, contrary to the popular opinion, managing Wars for their own interests is the United States reason for being and they’re very good at it.
Is there a football game on?
Mihocek! By popular request!
15!
Piss off Roger.
This is serious.
Hossssssskin-Elliott!!!
9!
AFL is not a serious game.
You get a point for missing the goal, for heaven’s sake.
Eddles – you’re purveying the “Masters of War” viewpoint.
‘stan – twenty years of blood and treasure and zero to show for it, except a newly equipped and emboldened bunch of goat pleasurers.
The place should have been handed over to the Covenant for a full glassing after 9/11.
The thing about Russia-Ukraine and Trump is that unless you actually solve the problem all you’ve done is kick the can down the road.
Go you GOOOD BOYS!!!!!
THREE POINTS!
Sacré bleu! 🙁
Woke is basically part of the old USSR demoralisation campaign and one does not get to be a KGB colonel like Putin without a hatred of capitalism and America/the West.
As a KGB Colonel he would have had access to real intel about the true state of the USSR and the capitalist West. Professional intel officers don’t do hatred. It’s just a job. Do your part to hold it all together as long as possible. In SF see Dominic Flandry by the late, great, Poul Anderson.
What?
Did somebody’s put icecream there Crêpes Suzette.
Ah, fuck.
Those mighty Turkeys! 🙂
One point – might as well have been seventy.
Victory for the theatregoers!
Despite being a Pies man, I enjoyed that.
I think Cats will flog Sydney next week.
BTW
Piss of Roger.
The POTUS, even a Trump, can’t solve eastern Europe’s problems.
He can only keep a lid on them.
I’m reporting Roger every time now.
The Pies win the close ones.
Mostly.
Stupid Channel 7 floozie interviewing Buddy. Sweetie, he’s not a match-winner — he a marketing device in a city of gullible theatregoers.

AFL contends with soccer for silly game status.
Blows raspberry.
do you live with a Collingwood supporter?
No.
this noise won’t die until she sleeps
The Sydney Mancravers didn’t win. They escaped.
They escaped, and they know it.
However. From 17th at the end of 2021 to going within a point of the GF the next – I’m not happy with it, but I’m satisfied with it.
err, Tommy – he was out there doing the hard yards early on, including being belted mercilessly by the maggies’ players handbags.
The oil on the shoulders and upper arms was pure Sydneystan.
Get a grip, the Eddie McGuire todger inhalers could not.
LOL..
I am sayink naffink.
Who or what is Collingwood?
Reported again Roger.
Papley.
Cost the Pies a goal they had to get back. Almost up there with the Great Wayne Harmes Fit-Up of 1979.
The struggle is real.
Roger, it’s OK if you don’t understand why Australian Rules is a $4.7 billion sports rights goldmine in the only country on earth with four professional football codes.
It’s the only game that didn’t come from somewhere else.
throw all yr hopes and dreams into a 44 gallon drum along with all your money
wait 5 minutes for your neighbour to set fire to it
…that’s Collingwood
Not mostly enough in the ones that matter.
err, KD – if it’s any consolation, a man much wiser than me once observed:
“Football fans should be herded into shipping containers and bulldozed off a high cliff into the sea”.
🙂
Listen to Kid Rock while you wait.
..
Your humanitarian impulses do you no credit.
Why wouldn’t you set fire to the containers first?
Indeed. I am preparing for a 90 minute sobfest from my Sunday morning walking partner. I may be indisposed given the gloating I copped after my mob were eliminated last weekend.
Geelong will thrash Sydney.
Go ahead…make my day.
I secretly love the attention, don’t you know.
It’s the only game that didn’t come from somewhere else.
Seems to me it owes a lot to Gaelic football, Tom.
So….who won?
We always know when Collingwood loses because they tend to break the trees on the way home. If they win they only break a few.
Gaelic football is a retarded version of soccer.
Seems to me it owes a lot to Gaelic football, Tom.
History says otherwise.
The first games were played between Protestant schools.
None of the early clubs had particularly Irish connections, colours etc. (Green didn’t form part of the colours of any VFL/AFL club till the Dockers were formed.)
The first rules were written by two Cambridge University men, Tom Wills from Rugby School, and a teacher from Scotch College who was Irish but from the “Protestant Ascendancy”. There’s zero evidence that any of them (except perhaps the teacher at Scotch) had ever even heard of Gaelic football – not surprisingly since Gaelic football wasn’t codified into anything like a uniform game till well after Australian Rules was established.
‘stan – twenty years of blood and treasure and zero to show for it, except a newly equipped and emboldened bunch of goat pleasurers.
The stated goal was to bring OBL to justice, so Mission Accomplished.
All the gear they left there didn’t matter, Australia lost many men at the tail end of Vietnam trying to salvage and repatriate tanks & c. to what end?
The Yanks did the same in Australia in 1944/45, there were still Blitz Trucks running round on farms in the 1980s.
Arks, you’d set fire to the containers after they’ve thudded onto the earth.
Just to be sure, to be sure … 🙂
Putin’s counterparts are just openly humiliating him at the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation meetings.
https://twitter.com/skazal_on/status/1570824858401116161
Yeah, and some say China reckons the Russian Far East is theirs.
While I wouldn’t predict Putin’s Downfall just yet, his SMO has been a colossal blunder.
OK, Cats – as the saying goes – I’m not having it (again).
Football is the world’s greatest game.
A simple game, with simple rules, for simple personages.
Which is why “The Show”, commencing in November will be the greatest sporting event since mid 2018, when the last Show was held.
The Schlockeroos have been at every Show since 2006, after that mighty revenge victory against Uruguay in 2005*.
If that makes me a bad personage, then so be it. 🙂
*Thanks to the Schwarzer, like the Redmayne – incredible saves.
But what about hurling? It has the same goals and the far more manly approach involving clubs.
Retardation is what they do. They do it very well. My people.
Yes it does.
It’s so boring you have to riot.
That’s sport, Squire. Blood, sweat and tears. They did well.
It’s OK, Rabz. Aussie Rules fans will never demand that everyone call their game futbol — unlike chauvinistic soccer fans.
Watch a thrilling game and then get into a bit of rioting.
Not seeing a downside.
Commiserations to the Collingwood supporters.
The Fly has done well to get them to a prelim in his first year.
I am happy Sydney won, but Collingwood being beaten by a point doesn’t have the same impact now that Nathan Buckley has gone. Sigh.
A brunette, clad in a gingham tea towel while wielding a Telecaster …
“and I knew it was all an act, I tells ya!”
Watch a thrilling game and then get into a bit of rioting.

On the OT the other day, Rosie put up a link to a report that young people were getting heart problems from supplements. I can’t find the comment now so I did a search and found the actual report.
The article – A cardiologist says she’s seeing a rise in 20-somethings with heart arrhythmias caused by herbal supplements – is from Sept 8, 2022 and was published by Insider.com.
https://www.insider.com/cardiologist-supplements-causing-heart-arrhythmias-in-young-people-2022-9
Despite the headline, the doctor, California-based cardiologist Dr. Danielle Belardo, acknowledges that ‘trying to find evidence to support the benefits or risks of a supplement is tricky,’ because there are ‘…few robust studies to go by.’ So the connection she makes is based on her ‘…probing her patients on what over-the-counter pills they take.’
Even so, after tweeting out to her followers (70k)
Given that Belgardo has already noted that studies concluding that a link exists are negligible her tweet and those supposedly supportive responses from other doctors that a definite link exists seems a bit premature especially considering the possibility of the involvement of the Covid-19 vaccines in the time frame of interest.
The entire report is basically designed as a warning to consumers to follow the advice of the American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association – organisations that would have very strong connections to the NIH, the CDC and Dr Anthony Fauci, so prompts more questions than it answers.
Why, now, after decades of large sections of the American public taking vitamin and herbal supplements – the report notes that the industry is worth US$1.5 trillion – should this be a recent phenomenon. Of course, there may be some new fashionable supplement that has taken the place by storm, but nothing like that was mentioned. (According to healthline.com bitter orange, one of the supplements referred to in the article, has been used for more than ’20 years in supplements for weight loss, athletic performance, skin care, appetite control, and brain health, as well as perfumery.) https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/bitter-orange#compounds-nutrients
So whatever adverse action may result from its use, it’s not a novel supplement in California in 2022.
Of the other supplements listed, one – ephedrine alkaloids – has been banned in the country since 2004, though one case study showed that in 2021 a patient with arrhythmia took a supplement which had that ingredient. The remaining two supplements – fish oil and ashwagandha – of which the latter one, researchers have not found a link, while the former was concerned with the interaction with blood thinners. So nothing of novel concern there.
But what really is new is the reference to “young people having heart problems,” yet no mention of the many cases of heart problems, including in the young, that have occurred since the covid jabs rolled out – the one thing that is novel during the time frame.
As to Dr. Danielle Belardo:
Dr Belardo is a Californian based cardiologist. Her website states her
Listed on her website is a select peer-reviewed original publications numbering seven, only one of which lists her as the prime author, while the majority has her listed well down in the order of authors.
The one paper that does stand out and for all the wrong reasons is A Look Back, A Path Forward: Moving Toward Diversity and Inclusion in Cardiovascular Society Presidents and which was published in February, 2022, in Voices in Cardiology – a subject matter well up there for the “woke community” and the bureaucratised medical establishment.
I think I’d rather take note of Dr Peter McCullough as my “go-to” cardiologist.
The same way Joe Biden did.
I’ve only read one or two of Norman Spinrad’s. I remember The Iron Dream. Rather naughty, but probably a good prediction of our current WEF-led priapic wankers.

Well, yes. Especially if Taiwan uses nuclear weapons in response.
Which they just might, given their illicit nukes program since the sixties.
I hope Xi has a full set of lead underpants: he might need them.
Well, the 2022 SCO Summit has certainly been a Golden Triumph for Emperor Xi.
The Chinese economy is wearing wobbly boots and struggling with Covid – but the Samarkand Declaration ticks all of China’s political boxes – and formalises China’s leadership of a massive, resource rich, win-win-win, explicitly Central Asian grouping.
Xi can go into the 2022 National Congress of the CCP confident that his opponents are underwater – and that reunification of Taiwan is a goer in Xi’s Third Quarter.
Whether Russians appreciate becoming the Eurasian Chinese satrapy remains to be seen.

DECLARATION OF INTERNATIONAL MEDICAL CRISIS DUE TO THE DISEASES AND DEATHS CO-RELATED TO THE “COVID-19 VACCINES”
We, the medical doctors and scientists from all over the world, declare that there is an international medical crisis due to the diseases and deaths co-related to the administration of products known as “COVID-19 vaccines”.
We are currently witnessing an excess in mortality in those countries where the majority of the population has received the so called “COVID-19 vaccines”. To date, this excess mortality has neither been sufficiently investigated nor studied by national and international health institutions.
The large number of sudden deaths in previously healthy young people who were inoculated with these “vaccines”, is particularly worrying, as is the high incidence of miscarriages and perinatal deaths which have not been investigated.
A large number of adverse side effects, including hospitalisations, permanent disabilities and deaths related to the so-called “COVID-19 vaccines”, have been reported officially.
The registered number has no precedent in world vaccination history.
I’d like to think the shades of the late Prince Phillip were looking on, with a quiet chuckle.

One of my mum and dad’s dogs lost to snakebite today- the second one for them gone by snake in recent history. They’d inherited the mutt from when my grandmother went into hospice last year, it had taken on the tiger snake in the garden- dodgy spot on the riverbank this time of year when they break out into new territory. I kinda fear for my mum getting nipped while gardening now- poor old girl recently ran over and killed her fourteen-y-o dog she’d inherited when my brother left for albion, and also earlier clipped the five year old who was meant to replace the dugite-bitten thirteen year old- nearly lost its leg, it was only in-house med care which saved its leg, tho the structure of the foot has collapsed.
Bloody dogs.. you love them, but the very things which make them almost human also make them live a life of risk.

Get a Jack Russell Terrier. They kill snakes.
Every terrier will go at snakes.
Every terrier will go at snakes until one day, they’re too slow.
Having said… i had a terrier (cross poodle, before it was ubiquitous) who dragged his first pulverized five foot gwadir onto the verandah when he was four months old, and he eventually only died of being seventeen.
Life’s not all bad.
Had the heartwarming good times of being in the supporters’ stand while the twelve-y-o’s hockey team went down 1-0 in hockey final. They were so genuinely thrilled to hold off the winners, who had not had a goal scored against them all season, and who had pounded them 5-0 in the prelim.
Our team is the best, our parents and friends is the best, our breast cancer fundraising round is the best. Even though I’m the wrong age and sex, we feel part of something big and eternal and traditional.
Finding one of her students making faces at others on the playground, Ms. Smith stopped to gently reprove the child. Smiling sweetly, the Sunday School teacher said “Bobby, when I was a child, I was told that if I made ugly faces, it would freeze and I would stay like that”. Bobby looked up and replied “Well, Ms. Smith, you can’t say you weren’t warned”.
Arrived in Opatija in the pouring rain – not quite the Monte or Cannes of Croatia…yet. Very quaint and noisy – there was a wedding and a great procession of cars with bouquets on the side mirrors, draped in flags and ribbons with horns blaring ran up and down the main drag.
I love weddings! And as we walked back up the hill to the hotel, there was the adorable couple at one of the hotels complete with all their guests. The rain had stopped, the sun tried to come out and all was well with the world.
The hotel itself is one of those re-furbished Habsburg villas so loved by the Austro-Hungarians. Flash, but no kettles in the rooms. 😀
Sorry about the derg, Wally. I have lost my heart to too many canines. No more for me.

Thanks, Tom.

Ahahaha!
Made my day. Thanks Tom.
Trivia quiz last night.
Did you know that Columbo, the TV series ran for 35 years?
Hardly watched any, not my genre, but 69 episodes were made and Peter Falk got 300K/episode for the first half and 600K thereafter. (Approximately)
Nice little earner.
Had to search one of those powerline headlines

You are completely dismissing the ideology of the USSR to shit on Obama and his surrogates. This is incredibly naive.
Putin was not only in the KGB and hence a party member. He was a commissioned officer, that of a colonel stationed in East Berlin. He was almost the rank of a general in a political secret police force in an occupying force of a regime that propped up the most brutal political secret police force in any of its satellites.
Professional intelligence officers don’t do ideology? Why the hell did you make this nonsense up?
Here are two very notable examples of why your presumption is wrong:
.1 Admiral Canaris otherwise would not have had the sense to betray Hitler.
.2 General Clapper would not be a poisonous, treacherous, utterly partisan toad.
A KGB colonel in East Berlin is by virtue of their position a party fanatic who hates the West and capitalism.
Make no mistake that he is an ally of China and North Korea.
Chinese rhetoric by their general staff openly discusses how they would brutally rule a conquered America.
No. They would not be better. They would not allow dissent. They would not allow the wokism they have intentionally infected the West with.
Wokism is just as insidious as communist funded and dubious “peace” movements that sought to disarm the West and let the USSR run their evil empire unabated.
All you need so is see what the CCP compromised byte dance allows on Western and Chinese til tok.

For hundreds of years, Martha’s Vineyard has suffered from the soul-crushing effects of its own whiteness. Island residents understood there was only one cure. They badly needed diversity.
Relief finally arrived from an unlikely source yesterday: Ron DeSantis.
Perfect.
Defiant Ls still doing excellent work.
Andrew Wilkie is probably a good Australian example of professional intelligence officers being unable to have the “it’s just a job, ma’am” mindset and stay out of politics.
Caravan shopping today, at least 20ft under 7 years and light proof so the Mil can rest during the day.

Also, get it on an interest free loan with reward points.
Don’t worry about the 29.99% after the interest free period.

I bet nobody had Bumming for Madge on their bingo card.
A blonde who had been unemployed for several months got a job with the council.
Her job was to paint lines down the centre of a rural road. The supervisor told her that she was on probation and that she must stay at or above the set average of two miles per day to remain employed.
The blonde agreed to the conditions and started right away.
The supervisor checking up at the end of the day, found that the blonde had completed four miles on her first day – double the average!
“Great” he told her “I think you’re really going to work out”.
The next day, however, he was disappointed to find that the blonde only accomplished two miles. The supervisor thought “Well she’s still at the average and I don’t want to discourage her, so I’ll just keep quiet”.
The third day however the blonde only did one mile and the boss thought “I need to talk to her before this gets any worse”.
He pulled the new employee in and said “You were doing so great. The first day you did four miles, the second day two miles, but yesterday you only did one mile. Why? Is there a problem? An injury? Equipment failure? What’s keeping you from meeting the two-mile minimum?” The blonde replied “Well, each day I keep getting farther and farther away from the bucket”.
