Yeast are the real celebrities at my house.

Why has a swimmers sexuality generated so much news?

Blah blah. Totally agree. Only posting to say this re your post: The Selector should be at number one, then The Cure, then The Jam and then Paul Weller

But what about Johnny Cash

 

[Online Brewing Supplies]

yeah I just dont care about small issues like someone else sexual tastes unless it a ped.
There are bigger social issues that should be media-rised.

 

[djar007]

Will he be so forthcoming with admissions of doping and drug use. Doubtful.

 

[Dave70]

Not unless theres a substantial drink in it for him that is.

My wife refuses to pay any attention at all to the news. It alternately shits me and inspires me.

I haven't watched commercial "news" on tv for years, although I will look at news.com.au and wonder why I wasted the energy typing the URL in every time. Its like a bad dirty habit (perhaps I'll go blind). Sad thing is that half the content is absolute piffle imported from the US.

Its not perfect, but thank goodness for the ABC. I get most of my news from the local ABC radio station. I hope the cuts don't ruin the journalism.

It changes whenever I plug my ipod in to charge.

That's because the news is amongst other things, misinformation with an agenda and fear mongering. A society in fear is easilly controlled.

 

[Mardoo]

Yep. We need to stop buying the stories.

 

[Dave70]

What if it news about beer?

 

[pk.sax]

You can't always buy into what they are saying!

Beer does not cause you to drink, drunkenness causes you to drink beer.

I claim bullshit
I drink to slake my thirst,to ...umm " taste test my brews".
The end result if I go too far is drunkeness.
Cheers....spog....

Yep.
Its a fine line between aperitif and quaffer when you get cocky with that 8.5% strong ale.

 

[Ducatiboy stu]

But, beer does cause you to get drunk.

We're talking about news!
You are NOT supposed to join the dots.

 

[Danwood]

That's right, no dot joining.

Go around, under and over the dots until the picture suits your needs.

If the picture happens to include a couple of dots (hereafter referred to as facts) then that is a happy coincidence, but it is certainly not necessary.

Sounds like politics and astrology have that in common.

Haven't got a rant, but have a rave about Cairns, took the wife and kids to Cairns during the school holidays, I remember going there about 23 years ago and thinking then what a ramshackle rat trap of a place it was. But what a great place to visit, those tourist dollars must be pouring in, I would say the Chinese outnumber the Japanese and Korean visitors but what a contrast in such a short time. Well done Cairns
