If he'd been born in Osaka though he wrote in German probably, by your reckoning, may not make him Japanese though.

No Deits.

My logic is sound but unfashionable.

    Obama did nothing but toady to Israel and drop bombs and talk sweetly. Clinton was just as bad. The damage he and Albright did to Iraq, just for starters, was way beyond the pale.

    Obama will be compared to the great fairy flosses of the world, full of sweet sound and broken promises ( Quantanimo, exiting Iraq and Afghanistan) while piling on the murders by Drones, not to mention his complicity in the rape of Libya and Syria.

    Well Dieter I believe all US leaders believe in their right to attack their enemies off shore, wherever it may arise in the world. That gives them the right to ferment revolution or assination locally. And we have witnessed that throughout Central and South America and in Asia of course in the 20th century.

    Obama is just following a well worn national tradition.

    Have the Germans and Japanese taken over the banana industry? 

    Yes, we have no bananas today.

    Man, you wanna just talk peanuts by the sound of it. For a start, bananas are about just as boring as nuts. Wanna talk about the weather?

    Okay, it's nice and cool in Melbourne at the moment, though we are heading for a 38 degree Tuesday, though the weather bureau keeps changing its mind about the exact figure.

    Have you ever noticed that? Does it annoy you too?

    That's akin to heresy on this thread, dieter. There are some things up with which we will not put, as your hero Winston once said.

    Couldn't agree more. The bottom line is heresy is heresy. I can feel an immolation coming on.

    List of interesting things seen transported on a scooter/bike around Saigon.

    6m long steel bars

    Bricks

    A cage of live dogs

    A fat sow

    And this is the best so far

    A double door fridge.

    That comment is far worse than anything Bbo has ever said.

    Words cannot describe the horror of that attitude.

    If I was a moderator you would be immediately banned till after the first game of 2017

    It would be an interesting social experiment to ban this thread. Even say, a freeze on the thread for a month.

    May cause an implosion of some iphones and lap taps around the country.

    After reading that Earnest I can only assume that you emerging from a heavy Christmas / New year period and your reasoning powers have not returned to your normal high standard.

    Rickshaw naturally.

    The driver is fairly exhausted and we've only done a hundred or so clicks.

    My whip needs replacing also.

    No DC.

    city folk are a bit sharp.

    Ive gone "up river" for HR and surprise.

    Recruitment is easy but the tough part is convincing DIAC that I need 43 chefs and 24 hair dressers.

    The rickshaw driver is totally pist at me but all the swimming is giving his feet a well earned rest.

    Hope you have the air con at full blast back in Borewood DC.

    Must be hellishly uncomfortable in Melbourne.

    Its gods way of punishing tennis players so all good.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
