haha, well that's that then

Yeh I understand what you're saying, I don't really want to be the union advocate but I've kind of been wedged into it so I'll have a crack. Unions have a very big picture mindset, while each example (one day) on its own seems small from where the union sits they see them as the thin edge of the wed...

I'm not sure I understand, there was training day and they were expected to attend and not get paid ?

Can smith looks really angry about something, he's playing like it as well.

Something is wrong in Stormtown

When I worked at Jupiter's Casino I was involved in a strike. The way the union bullied everyone was disgraceful and in the end we got a worse deal than if we hadn't have gone on strike I was pretty young, so I didn't care, and just enjoyed the days off (plus the whole time we were on strike I was ...

Shadow Boxer

Yeh, most people dont like them until they need them for something, not everyone will need them though.

I'll probably never need them again, the people that clean my building do though, good luck to them if they can scrape up an extra dollar or two an hour

Shadow Boxer

That's the weird thing, I said all along I don't have any strong views on unions, I've been on both sides of the fence.

I just called that article ridiculous nonsense, happy to stand by that opinion.

Shadow Boxer

I was happy to let it go, I tried several times.

Shadow Boxer

The stench of that last one is hanging around.

Night grandad, make sure you shake your fist good and hard at those dirt shifters as you drive by tomorrow

Shadow Boxer

Haha, It's getting worse, the old "I'm not you are" response to the awkward silence.

Did you notice the crowd quietly headed for the exits.

Shadow Boxer

Ouch, that was probably the most laboured set up and tag line in the history of the Internet.

Shadow Boxer

Rule one of stand up mate, if the joke bombs leave it there, never pick it up.

Shadow Boxer

Haha, fantastic repartee mr Brent Not yet though, cracking early autumn Canberra day today, egg and bacon roll at the kids netball this morning, walk around the Gungahlin festival for a bit in the sun, smacked out 74 off the beater in monthly medal golf, few beers with the boys at the club, cooked a...

Sorry, back to the footy

Shadow Boxer

Seriously, grab the article and head down there, waive it around and have general rant about trade unions

Tory Mcdouchebag might be settling in with mr caruso

There's age in years and there's age in attitude, they are very different things

Shadow Boxer

I am about 9 beers in, maybe I shouldn't

Shadow Boxer

Well, GEM got to air his favourite pics from his hard drive, and SB had one of his most embarrassing 'dithery old man' threads deleted in the clean up. Huge day on the Politics thread. Haha, what's going on here then. Sad old Tories are such whiny babies when things don't go their way, it's like th...

Shadow Boxer

Yeh I think so mate, wood grubs as well at Pratts in Belconnen. They have a bit of attitude but if you can get past that they will steer you in the direction of some good spots Thanks mate use to go there when I lived there , does nt look like things have changed at pratts in 25 years either . Haha...

Shadow Boxer

It gets pretty complicated and given the lack of data, it's really hard to draw strong conclusions either way a lot of the time. There are a load of factors that influence (or may influence) poor outcomes, mental illness, family situation, social factors, genetics etc etc etc. Most people who use/h...

Shadow Boxer

All the best mate, kids are tougher than you think

Shadow Boxer

haha, Denyered, i haven't heard that one but i get it.

Shadow Boxer

Haha, Sorry what did I miss, I've been out flinging creme brûlée at road workers,

Shadow Boxer

Yeh it is, Malcolm ran ac/dc, it was his band. Vanda and young from the easybeats put it together though, they learnt a harsh lesson when the easybeats went to London and changed their style to suit the fashion of the day and tanked. The decided that wouldn't happen with acdc and 40 years later they...

Shadow Boxer

There's a two part documentary about Alberts music currently on iview called blood and thunder

It's the whole history of acdc, the easy eats, Angels etc

Fantastic show

Shadow Boxer

Yeh I think so mate, wood grubs as well at Pratts in Belconnen.

They have a bit of attitude but if you can get past that they will steer you in the direction of some good spots

Shadow Boxer

Goddamn dirt shifters and their frigging overtime perks, we should be able to take to them with sticks

The Stuart haters are really loving the loss this week, imagine if we get two in a row.

Shadow Boxer

FPN will be the first picked against the dogs

Shadow Boxer

Haha, maybe I've had too many bad ones where people burn the top and it tastes like crap

Shadow Boxer

Im not a fan fui, I don't really like cream brûlée either, waste of good vanilla custard

Shadow Boxer

There's a thing among good golfers called "projecting" and it's a really bad thing. It's used when people say "right three more birdies and I finish 4 under" or even worse negative projecting where you think "better not get two more bogies or I'll miss the cut". The pro...

Baptiste has actually come on too LATE in both games IMO If he comes on at 18-6 and 20-6 up respectively in the last two weeks he probably adds enough around the ruck that we score another try and momentum swings our way Bringing him on when we're completely under the pump and the horse is already ...
