I'm sure Steve Irwin would have been disappointed to hear that remark towards the stingray. He would have loved it just the same as always. I guess he would have liked to hear that his death was not in vain, but brought an increased awareness and appreciation towards all creatures on this earth...

Hey R2, great point! I couldn't agree more.

This is perhaps a little difficult for me to say, as it is saying something against my Mom. Mom did what she thought was best for my interests. She never asked me what I wanted or needed. Then again, she never asked Dad if he was watching the show when she claimed ownership of the TV remote...

Only buys a bedroom in Brisbane, lol

Spotted on the toilet wall at one of my workplaces: HOLDEN = Horrid Old Lesbians Drive E(?)nything Nowadays..... My Spanish mate tells me Pajero in Spanish means wanker... So I call him El Pajero.

Just come back online myself, Raykat. That's terrible news, very sorry to hear about it. Hope things are working out OK for you all, my thoughts and condolences are with you. I grew up around Buckland Rd, Mangere (Nob Hill, LOL). My sister and a brother lived in Papatotoe for years. One in...

Dang, I thought MINE was :cool:

Sounds to me like it's time to tackle the homeless issue rather than band-aiding the heat issue.

Stupidest thing I ever did (I think - did a lot of stupid things) was 105 mph in my 1960 Plymouth Belvedere. Why stupid? Big drum brakes, no brake booster equals zero brakes after 90 mph. This was back about '78. There I was at that speed on an unfamiliar road and a bend came up fast and I...

No my son has normal hearing, but his disability can make communication awkward at times as he tends to distort what he hears. He also is a monotonic talker and uses some inappropriate words at times which can make it difficult sometimes to understand what the hell he is talking about! However...

My grandmother was born in 1884

I had a 1960 4 door model once. Had a push button 2 speed auto and used to outpace a 327 Camaro till I got into 2nd gear at 70 mph.

The ultimate in teamwork?

You are most welcome. BTW, never knew the phrase had been publicised! Enjoyed that one as well.

Raykat, my sister adopted 2 children in Auckland under the open adoption scheme, where the biological parent met a number of potential adoptive parents who were vetted and matched to the child by the adoption agency and the biological parent chose the particular family the child would go to...

er, I meant left not let - or is that links?

When I was in high school - I think it was 1973 a chinese friend of ours used to drive us there in his Morris Minor (We get our car licenses at age 15 over in New Zealand). We got pulled over by a copper on day who gave us a full on lecture about speeding and how we were pushing him to do...

Maybe tell them "Bend over and I'll show ya!" ???? Ain't I awful?

My son is heavily involved in the production of a weekly TV show here. He has a type of schizophrenic illness and is on a disability pension. This show is shown on a minority channel and seems to do fairly well as it is in the prime timeslot for the night. I am amazed how much work...

I think you girls are too critical of yourselves. The first thing I noticed in the picture was this huge smile. Then the dress. I thought Wow, there's a combination that works really well and looks great as well. I only really noticed the makeup flaws after you gals pointed it out. IMHO...
