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.

    Look out Valentino Rossi.

    Well when they do arrive wherever our erstwhile correspondents are geographically or temporally located please ensure there is no freckle on your banana.

    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.

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
