btw, earl, i've never seen a 6" floppy, assuming you are referring to diskettes

would that be a cut-down 8" one?

I am not one to exaggerate as you know DC but yes I had an 8" floppy in earlier days but these days I am working with a 5.25"more often than not!

So my elderly father is absolutely convinced there's a conspiracy between the big supermarket chains in Australia to genetically modify bananas for thicker skins in order to shortchange consumers on their potassium intake per average purchase. What's this thread about?

Is OD dead or alive ? Does anyone know? Last I heard he was slurping free pinos at his sister's winery. Which BTW, is not exactly a world away from Romsey Manor, and to which free grog function, no invite was issued.

Still in recovery mode after our breaking of the 10 year hoodoo at the Cattery. Probably sipping more than a pinot or 2!

Very much alive Bbo

Had a busy weekend and with no MFC game there was little to comment on.

As to your invitation to sample the Pinot I can only assume it got lost in the mail.

Pleased to hear you're still sucking in O2 as well as Pinot OD. I must say Australia post has let me down an unusual number of times.

So he's on to us!? Our security has failed. Or maybe we have a mole... I can see I'm going to have to call Obama again to get this sorted. Thanks for the intelligence. To the red phone!

Well they are going bad Bbo.

I suppose I could email you next time that seems to be the root cause of their difficulties.

Anybody would think Auspost is run by a bunch of backward readers or something.

And I thought BBO still used courier pigeons to send his mail.

Well done lad you have entered the 19th century.

Old Dee - this is probably the most serious and tongue out of cheek question I'll ever ask on D'land. Beside the idea that their consumption attracts pernicious blood-sucking malaria-bearing parasites, what's the issue with eating too many bananas? Is your GP aligned with Woolies and Coles?

Did you forget how to play solitaire?

Was the meat a little too chewy?

Give us something OD,

you can't be expected to be invited out socially unless you dress, speak and behave as if you have something to say.

The pension may have to be scrapped entirely if you refuse to even communicate with the workforce.(alleged)

Hmm. Hyperkalemia. With some of real-world lifestyles suggested on here we should all be more aware. Time to cut back on the lady-fingers a little bit I think.

Satan's words Skuit how could you on this site!

Repent now

I hope you effers spare a thought for poor old Uncle Bitter. Due to a combination of unfortunate circumstances (one of which was the failure of Biffen's illegal immigrant labour hire service to come through) I had to drag myself from the sick bed and carry out an honest day's manual labour.

Actually made me spare a thought for the poor beggars who have to do it all the time. ......... Hang on ...... did I just feel ....compassion?

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
