From: Terry Frankcombe (Avatar) 25/03/2002 Subject: re: Miss Rambo post id: 674553 We had mixed platoons when I was training. There were two types of chicks. There were chicks who were chicks, and chicks who were blokes. There were also two types of blokes. There were blokes who responded to the chicks who were chicks as chicks, and blokes who ignored them trying to be chicks. The chicks who were chicks pissed me off no end. We were supposed to be training for combat, not flirting. I have no doubt whatsoever that in a combat situation the blokes who responded to the chicks being chicks would react very differently to, say, me or one of the chicks who were chicks getting wounded. And indeed in much less extreme situations. But it's not just the chicks who were chicks who were the problem. I reacted differently to any kind of suffering in the chicks who were blokes from how I reacted to any of the blokes suffering. Even the little blokes, who were probably physically weaker than a lot of the chicks. These are not things you can legislate away.

From: Sensible Cyril Ž Subject: re: Thinking Thinking Thinkin post id: 5487 "Order" can represent either the chaste symmetry of pure randomness, or highly-structured, semi stable patterns maintained by self-reinforcing dynamics. "Balance" generally evokes "twoness", the base number of symmetry, again characteristic of both randomness & the complex bifurcatory potentialities of highly evolved states. "Harmony" can describe the manifold polyphonic/polymorphic interactions of long, pretentious words.

From the "bad old days"... From: steve (Avatar) 3/19/02 7:16:31 AMSubject: re: eternal existence or not post id: 666632 (re Godbotherers timeslot) You start off with Joyce Meyer who is not too bad, follow that up with the Copelands who specialise in terrible accents and Hicksville preaching and then the prize - Benny Hinn. After an hour of healing and casting out devils, the inspirational Hinn flashes his carefully coiffed wig, beams his toothpaste-advert smile and demands money with menaces. (pay me all you earn or go to hell - that sort of thing). Is it surprising that after such stimulation the god-squad chooses to get on the SSSF and attack those sinful scientists? No sooner has Hinn warbled his last halleuja than they are on here god bothering.

Plants where we don’t want them are weeds. Trees where we don’t want them are weeds. That’s my philosophy. All we have to do is decide where we want them. I’m a brown. My Australia is tropical. It doesn’t rain in winter. The land is brown, the grass is brown, the creeks are brown. Green is the colour of the summer when the ground’s to wet to move and the air is too hot to breath. That’s nature in my Australia. Green is a colour for a European environment, and the green philosophy is best suited to a European environment. Australian environmentalists need to be brown. I’m a conservative. I like this country, people, land and all. I want to conserve it. I don’t want to preserve it in a bottle like rosellas in a jam. I want people to be able to live it and embrace it, not just see it through the glass.

My question concerns my voice or lack thereof....although I try awful hard I find it difficult to produce a note that is pleasant to other people's ears.....I sound OK to myself, but throughout my life I have been ejected from church choirs, karaoke sing-a-longs, and my Mrs even tells me to shutup my bathroom singing. Last night was the last straw....after a couple of Fosters and some Kava, I joined in a typical Fijian sing-a-long. Even the lubricating of my tonsils did not improve the quality of my attempt at singing, and all I seemed to do was provoke tears of laughter and put the guitarist out of tune. Am I to be forever shunned from uttering a musical note?...am I tone deaf?......as I have pointed out, to my own ears I sound great...no Caruso but OK......maybe everyone else is tone deaf....what do you lot think? Is this thread broken for everyone or just me?

Post Chernobyl , which also was chockerblock full with reassuring "scientists who knew it all".And a NEW nuclear reactor in the middle of a major city? Talk of Chernobyl is just hippy crap. Chernobyl created a national park... The facts are: (1) Radiation is good for you. (2) Chernobyl is in Russia. (3) Hippies are dumb and smoke too much pot. (4) Nobody in isotopes wants to work in Bathurst. (5) If you think it's bad, then move. If you can't move because everywhere else is more expensive, then be grateful for the cheap real estate. (6) The nuclear waste will be disposed of in patients. (7) Australia is a dumb country.

Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool. Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

I regret to have to report that your skin doesn't get smoother as you get older. It is noticeable that fatter people tend to have smoother (less wrinkled) complexions than thinner ones. When one passes 50 you have a choice between being slim and looking your age and being overweight and keeping your smooth complexion. The advantage is all with men here, the tall slim craggy and weatherbeaten look is quite fashionable for men (Harrison Ford, Paul Hogan etc.)- not so for women.
