What's happening in Australia?

[DonQuixote]

Neil,
That should be a good enough reason for Taz and his friend to make the trip up our way - stop and see the Falls to add to the Grand Canyon - at least for Taz, his friend was home for that leg of the trip.

She is your fellow Tassie.
Anyway, if you watched her on Q&A she is not stupid.
She defends for poor ....

She is a bit stupid. I agree on q and a last week she showed a lot of courage and tenacity but she also still has made some pretty dumb comments about Muslims, particularly muslim women.

Is your knowledge and personal experience of muslim women greater than hers?

Assimilation.
According to her comments, she is a reasonable girl.

 

[goldenmoth]

Is your knowledge and personal experience of muslim women greater than hers?

Undoubtedly by the way she talks

 

[pat grimshaw]

Undoubtedly by the way she talks

Perhaps. But what I was asking was if YOU have had personal experience actually meeting and talking with muslim women?

 

[goldenmoth]

Yes

[pat grimshaw]

Yes...

Can you say something convincing about them to make a sceptic like me believe that you do?

Because, obviously, the PC zealots with their love of being nice often CLAIM to be something which they aren't.

You might remember that simpering, patronising publicity-seeking scheme called “# I’ll ride with you”

"Biggest news" in Australia's history - you've been let into Eurovison!

Geneva, Switzerland -

Yes, you read that right! After a prominent place in the interval act of last year’s Eurovision Song Contest, Australia will compete in the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest, to take place on 19, 21 and 23rd of May in Vienna, Austria. Just for once, and for many good reasons!

This year, the Eurovision Song Contest celebrates its 60th anniversary. To give the anniversary celebrations an extra dimension and to walk the talk on this year’s theme Building Bridges, the EBU and host broadcaster ORF invited Australia to compete in the Grand Final of the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest. This brings the total amount of represented countries to 40.

 

[Telstra]

^ well,
South Africa should be in the Eurovision too.
Any countries speak English should be in the Eurovision song contest.

 

[JohnnyAnger]

It seems they are doing it because it's huge in Australia - so they want to try and get the audience even bigger by letting you lot in just this once. They have had African and Middle Eastern nations enter before so its not unheard of.

Anyway loads of the bloody thing is in French, so French speakers will probably get the invite first

Only once?
I thought we are in every year like the Asian cup.

 

[JohnnyAnger]

Well so far they have said it will just be once - probably change if it makes money.

Australia gets in the Asian Cup because they switched confederations to represent Asia, rather than the Oceania Football Confederation. Hence why you have actually started making World Cups

 

[Telstra]

wow, i like this Australian map, very clever
I guess they forgot to include many other countries which would make them disappointed.

It seems to be a growing trend that Aussie pensioners and Aussie criminals go to South East Asia where food and housing and policing is cheaper.

This painted criminal (on the left) was arrested returning because he wanted to sponge some more cash back here—

wow, what a waste of beautiful face and skin

 

[Telstra]

i wonder the psychology of tattooing the whole face ?
Why ?

 

[JohnnyAnger]

I think when it comes to face tattoos its all about the insanity of it - you must be crazy to do it. Therefore no one is going to fuck with a guy who is crazy enough to have them done.

Look at Gucci Mane

It is such a crazy thing to get done, it tells the world don't fuck with him.

 

[pat grimshaw]

i wonder the psychology of tattooing..

He is an artist. he is expressing himself.
