Still amazes me some doubt that we went to the moon.
Magic.
If you melted all of the ice in Greenland and Antarctica, the world's oceans would rise by 60m. That's a lot of ice.
A treasure.
Interesting that this is a 'double dip', but getting tax-free super if you're a wealthy boomer isn't.
Well bugger me. Rupert's interest isn't the same as the public interest. Cut their audience in half with one stroke of a pen, genius. Bet somebody got a bonus.
This is fun. And pops a few myths.
I remain focused on the women in netball :) Who knew 20% of all netballers are men?
Nothing like 'em.
The old perennial! I'm with DH Lawrence on this one, we intellectualise child raising far too much: "Why are we so afraid of anger, of wrath, and clean, fierce rage? What cowardice possess us? Why would we reduce a child to a nervous, irritable wreck, rather than spank it wholesomely? Why do we make such a fuss about a row? A row, a fierce storm in a family is a natural and healthy thing...We ought all to fight: husbands and wives, parents and children, sisters and brothers and friends, all ought to fight, fiercely, freely, openly; and they ought to enjoy it. It stiffens the backbone and makes the eyes flash...We must be after them (children), fiercely, sharpen and chasten their movements, their bearing, their walk. If a boy slouches out of a door, throw a book at him, like lightning. That will make him jump into keen and handsome alertness. And if a girl comes creeping, whining in, seize her by her pigtail and run her out again, full speed. That will bring the fire to her eyes and the poise to her head: if she's got any fire in her; and if she hasn't, why, give her a good knock to see if you can drive some in."
Who knew Germans do more than speak like characters out of Wolfenstein?
Someone with a brain, so refreshing.
As your kids grow up, you hope they'll take healthy risks.
There was even a bit of argy bargy at the local netball yesterday. Fed up with whiners going on about refs and umpires. At every level. They make mistakes, and so do the players. Suck it up, shut up and get a life.
