Was it a Victorian government school, Mater? Their Stalinist government rules on music education in state schools forbid the singing of anything ‘in praise of any god’ – but we all know which God (Judaeo-Christian) they really mean, don’t we? No Bach church cantatas, no Palestrina or Victoria, no Handel oratorios, Mozart Masses, Mendelssohn’s Elijah etc. etc. And leftards call those dreaded conservatives philistines because they aren’t into taxpayer-subsidised multi-ethnic Marxist p0rn0graphy – or high culture like the Adler-MUP titles by Leigh Sales, Sally McManus, Mick Gatto, Louise Milligan and the Chloe Shorten Cookbook.

No Tel, it’s a terrible, insidious argument. It’s an appropriation of the Western individual rights social and political structure to exonerate actions done on behalf of islam, a system which has no individual rights and in which every aspect of life is regulated by it’s oppressive, collectivist ideology.
Every muslim is collectively responsible for the actions of terrorism done in Islam’s name. See professor Clive Kessler:

As someone says, unless anyone can come up with arguments the Russians have fucked it up in some way, then their model is the most accurate. Just to be sure, it suggests some warming, but the level is at such a low level that it would be beneficial for humanity in net terms.
It appears to be over.
It is not over, because the whole shambles was never about the climate or science.
As several people have admitted, it was always about remodelling the world economy to give a self selected so-called “elite” power under a socialist system.

Correct. Most sceptical scientists knew this a long time ago; alarmism has no science and the sceptical view has demolished the pretend science which has been put up. Hindcasting for instance which is a basic method of testing climate models has consistently shown alarmist models are crap: see Koutsoyiannis.

I do hope SloMo watched The Dumb. Selective quotes from the fight of the century – Aly vs Morrison – Bungle in the media jungle. He’d be the one man in Oz who didn’t see that coming. Meanwhile internal Liberal polling says it’s 50:50. That’d be Texta polling, would it?

True, Tom.
There appears to be trolls on both sides.
Here’s an idea.
The next time Westerners are killed in a terrorist attack conducted in the name of Whatsisname, as a show of solidarity all Muslim women will be directed to NOT wear sheets on their heads.
Peace in our time.

Just watched an excellent move, Brimstone, wild west stuff and violent as. Was on SBS the other night. Rottentomatoes arty critics gave it 40%. I think they didn’t like the bits where the womenfolk had their tongues cut out if they spoke out of turn. On a good day they’d get a mere flogging with a thick trouser belt. And they didn’t say no to any man, ever, yet still managed to look like Hollywood actresses no matter what they had just endured. Cruellest of them all was ABC favourite Guy Pearce playing a preacher man. That’s not very woke, Guy.

No objection really if that what they wish to do, but someone should remind them to wear something appropriate for the Christian victims of muslim violence, which happens a lot more often and has a greater number of victims.

The movie on Channel Waleed tonight is Pretty Woman. That’s the one starring Julia Gillard.
Talking to a local real estate agent today, the Tamworth real estate market has remained stable. No change in prices much to report. However, home sales have dropped a whopping 40%. Car yards are reporting a similar drop in sales figures. About the 40% mark.
The drought has a bit to do with it, but by far the biggest contributor is the Banking Royal Commission. The credit squeeze that is about to result is going to be horrific. And not only to those two industries. It will have a flow on effect to everyone.
If they were really empathic they’d have their clitorises removed as well.
Sorry, Roberts. The one starring JG is called Pretty …… Help me out here.
Tarantino: Did you see a sign at the front of my house that says ‘Dead Klingon Storage’?
Jackson: *looks down*
QT: Did you see a sign at the front of my house that says ‘Dead Klingon Storage’?

QT: You know WHY you didn’t see that sign?
SLJ: No.
QT: ‘Cos it ain’t THERE, ‘cos storing dead Klingons ain’t my LINE OF FUCKIN’ BUSINESS!
Gotta be worked in there somewhere. Surely.
In this new Brave Woke World, it’s a matter of time before Pretty Woman is re-shot with Amy Schumer in the Julia Roberts role.
LeBron James to replace Richard Gere.
I’ll make no particular comment except to quote from the memoirs of the first ever Regimental Medical Officer of the SAS – writtenin North Africa in 1943.
Spock: where’s Captain Pink?
Doc: Well let me see, he’s either dead or alive or the Kahn have him or they don’t
Star trek Discovery was amusing with its clumsy digs at Trump. Towards the end of the first season the writers must have been trolling the actors by handing over a WMD to a Klingon dictator to save themselves.
Julia Roberts is flogged for being a slut. No one, including the Left, say a word.
Klingon: I’m prepared to scour the the galaxy for that motherfucker. If Kirk goes to Bajor, I want a Cardassian hiding in a bowl of rice ready to phaser his ass.
FTFY.
I’ll give a simple example. Say you own a home worth $1m outright and you earn $100k a year. You want to borrow $50k for whatever reason. The bank used to do a “drive by” (just to make sure there was a house there, and it isn’t a falling down hovel).
No longer permitted. Despite it being a 5% LVR, they now need to do a fully certified valuation.
Loan application forms are required to state your expenses, down to the very last toilet roll.
And you can expect lenders to go through your bank statements with a fine tooth comb. Don’t expect to be spending your money at Sportsbet or withdrawing cash at a pub without being questioned about it.
The end result is that most people will be excluded from borrowing at all. Once people can’t borrow money, the entire economy will come to a grinding halt.
..
I thought you lived in Armadillodale?
It is beyond stupid; it has gone so far around through the stages of stupidity, self-indulgence, imbecility that it has come right back around to brilliance. There’s no argument against this.
How can Tarantino write this into a Star Trek script?
Where my Space shuttle ?
I had to crash your Space shuttle baby. Hop on.
Whose rocket cycle?
It’s a rocket chopper
Whose rocket chopper?
Kahn’s
Where’s Kahn ?
Kahn’s dead baby, Kahn’s dead.
TheirABC is outraged!
I’ll make no particular comment except to quote from the memoirs of the first ever Regimental Medical Officer of the SAS – writtenin North Africa in 1943.
There is a quote somewhere from this campaign that notes that the endless string of divorce letters from home did far more damage to morale than Rommel’s victories could have ever done.

Well, Cats, there’s one positive we can take from today:
NZers have revealed themselves to be even more naive and gullible than Australians.
Other builders are reporting 20% drop in enquiries. Not affected yet, but preparing for lean times.
Might be ok. As a comedy it might be the first entertaining thing Schumer has done in a while. Would need to work a lot more pussy jokes into the dialogue
… they could be her pick up lines. LeBronn James could relax and be himself… I think that’s a winning formula. Go copyright that.
Work towards a slapstick ending … ideally a naked pie fight.
Very reasonable argument.
Collective blame games suck.
Complete BS. Collective blame is completely appropriate, jihadists emerge from the bosom of every mosque and then the fuckers pretend to be surprised.

Sorry calli couldn’t resist no cert for me today.
Shy Ted Brimstone was an interesting movie yes.
Space: the final frontier. These are the voyages of the starship Pussy Wagon. Its continuing mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations and to blow shit out of them, to boldly go where no one has gone before, with only a Hattori Hanzo sword for protection.
Bank staff are shaking their heads. They can’t believe the bullshit they now have to ask their customers. They are now looking at having to decline another 30% of loans. That’s 30% less of the population unable to borrow and spend.
Small business are going to find it incredibly hard to get funds, let alone new “start ups”.
Suncorp has already signalled it won’t accept residential security. In other words, if you want to leave your job and “start up” a business, you can’t use the equity in your home to do so.
Sorry, but Schumer and “naked” should NEVER be seen in close approximation!
The drought has a bit to do with it, but by far the biggest contributor is the Banking Royal Commission.
I’d wager the drought is a bigger factor in regional communities.
As for the RC, it would never have been necessary if the banks, the regulator and the government had been doing their jobs properly in the first instance.

Gotta go do my fingernails now; just cleaned our BBQ and forgot to don the rubber gloves. My manicurist would have a fit.
Just got back from visiting a friend who is preggers, due next week or so. She’s huge. I used to be like that too with my four. It’s just carrying to the front, I told her reassuringly. She’s like me, quite short, so it looks even worse. Our female bodies are absolutely amazing, the way we bounce back. Hit the drugs if you need to, I advised her. This thing is a struggle. You wouldn’t go for natural dentistry.
Please explain, in as much detail as you wish, how when dead people are charged consultation fees for several years post-mortem, it due to their own poor decisions.
As a general rule, yes, but there are cases when it’s the only option. If a member of the class does something criminally destructive and you ask the culprit to confess and he doesn’t, then you ask the class to out him and they won’t, punishing the lot is necessary. If the class is the Muslims and the criminal act is murder, and they won’t turn him in, deport the lot.
Thank you for your judgement and kind words.
You don’t know me. You are incredibly judgmental.
same woman … 30 minutes apart.
The first was sarcastic.
I really needed to point that out?

It will be an artistic miracle to write the dialogue for all the ostensible alien life forms of extraterrestrial origin when the content in Earthian (American English translated for your convenience) consists of shit fuck bullshit fucker motherfucker cap his arse/ insert appropriate anatomical reference here homeboy ho.
BTW, tightening Government regulations on borrowing is only going to lead to one thing. People will find alternative sources of funding when faced with no other choice. Like the mafia types.
Every Government intervention usually ends up with the opposite result of what was intended. They really are incredibly thick, and just don’t think things through. Their hearts might be in the right place, but their brains are in their arse.
It’s almost as if the answer is… less government, smaller government.
So long as he uses the sets and make up guys from From Dusk To Dawn.

It’s great watching Collingwood lose

Sorry.
A typo.
I meant Armadildodale.
You’re a kind gal, Lizzie – caring and nurturing and highly intelligent ta boot.
Now I’ll be accused of playing mother.
You’ve been accused of far worse. Quite a few well intentioned gals here have.
There issue, not ours.
Gotta love a good mariachi band

Many years ago my father had his money invested in solicitors fund lending out at good interest.
Even then there were people who were outside of the banking life as it were.
Didn’t keep up with financial matters, wonder if this kind of lending is still around?
They’re dead, Steve, so it probably wouldn’t worry them greatly.
Besides, they should have had their affairs together when still breathing. Like reading a contract, arranging the speedy conclusion of their will and so on. This stuff can’t be left to their dim witted beneficiaries.
Hey Elle have you seen From Dusk to Dawn?
It certainly is.
Some of it is even reputable in nature.
They’re dead,
SteveSocrates, so it probably wouldn’t worry them greatly.We may find the law takes a very different view of knowlingly charging dead people for several years.
Funny about that.
Geez,
I actually enjoyed a few of Jim Jeffries’ standups.
No more. I hope the duplicitous bastard never records another of his stupid talk shows due to a decision made by someone else, and that’s he reduced to the standard DJT baggery at the Melbourne ‘Comedy Festival’.
Can’t wait for a response. If there is any. Which I doubt.
Nick is on the list of posters to ignore! 😂
The stench of piety lingers long after numbers has left. Contagious?
Yep. You can still get a private mortgage. The Solicitor acts as the bank between “Party A” and “Party B” (and charges a margin to do so – just like a bank does).
Generally speaking, if you have money and the bank will give you 4% interest, you could have a Solicitor lend it to someone at 8% and you get 6.5% and the Solicitor gets 1.5% [just an example].
The guy borrowing at 8% is usually someone the banks wouldnt touch with a 10 foot barge pole. Accordingly the loan would rarely be over a 40-50% LVR I.e if the security is worth $1m, they will lend $400k.
You can sell him up, the minute he fucks up and misses a repayment.
He’s worth millions so I don’t think so.
So jail all the bishops and cardinals because so many never reported the pedophilia in their midst and it is inconceivable that many were unaware of what was happening.
BB,
Yeah, always knew Nick was a bastard.
let’s face it, we know this is how it works.
Its the same game Numpty runs.
And Elle uses it with muh femisnismsz
they like to believe the world works on appearances
when anybody reaches for the seemingness of things … its a crock
Now after Collingwood’s disgraceful loss, GoldenEye is screening. Some real Russian collusion going on here. Although the Nintendo 64 game based on this fillum is the best ever, hands down.
Well said.
Mitch,
Once word gets out properly of his Mohammed cartoonery, every major network (and Netflix) will drop him like my ugly Year 7 girlfriend if they had any ounce of self-preservation. Which they do. You reckon they’ll come out publicly backing Jeffries’ free speech? KABOOM if they do. Which they won’t.
He won’t get any more millions, and he’ll be spending the millions he has bunkering down against the inevitable fatwa and subsequent jihad.
Hey Elle have you seen From Dusk to Dawn?
No.
I’m familiar with the movie and actors though.
Not a fan of Quentin Tarantino.
I do like Juliette Lewis, especially in Cape Fear where she acted along side Robert De Niro.
I have also enjoyed Harvey Keitel, especially in Reservoir Dogs.
What yr misunderstood now?
You and your words… theyre your words and you get to use them however you want.
how about trying things like consistency, common-sense and reason
all you do point things out.
jabber jabber jabber
Imbibing in a fine drop Zulu? I note Talisker is 80 odd bucks for a bottle. Might have to try it.
Steve, the dude/dudette is dead. Just wind up the estate. Like normal people do. Problem solved.
Competent executors should have been appointed. We then wouldn’t need to be discussing this.
Did they leave the electricity on at the house as well? Did they disconnect the telephone?
Zulu,
Some years ago I was people watching at a pub with a mate. A bloke was wandering down the street with a bag of oranges, and the bag broke spilling them all onto the path.
I said to my friend, ‘It’ll take that contagious to pick all those oranges up.’
Great song, Overburdened 🙂
I have dined well, and am about to pour myself a dram, and move outside to enjoy the view. I’d recommend Talisker, if you don’t like a heavy, peaty single malt.

Ardern should take note
Are Sheliahs allowed to be on the Cat on Friday nights?
It’s usually men’s only night.
LOL.
Avi has kicked some arse and it is absolutely awesome.
Matrix,
Brilliant clip, and just as God intended. Particularly like the one where Bond spins the chick around and lets her get clobbered by the villain.
Reminds me. Must enquire about learning to speak in a Scottish accent on YouTube.
Ask Sinc, Arma. He owns the blog, not some here who have taken over and think they own it.
Enjoy it while it lasts.
Could it be BB isn’t as young as I thought? But he does play old mans marbles.
Sinc, please ban the Sheliahs from Friday nights.
It’s the only time of the week we get to relax.
Yeeehaaah!
Tinder match!
Hijab arden receives death threats.
They’ve done their best to trash it in Vic Mark A. Worked too well. Huge demand but regulated till death.
Don’t have a link, but the front page of tomorrows Oz has Whining William declaring he won’t be the Union’s handmaiden. Whining William, if you’ve any more funny jokes like that, please share them with us.
Slater and Gordon were big in the private mortgage market. Bruce Wilson got approved.
It’s ok, arma. You boys can play with each other on your own. I know how important it is for you guys to have a safe space.
I’m about to watch a movie.
Have a good night. Go wild!
Don’t go Elle, again.
Bespoke, I am not going anywhere.
I will take you along to English classes though.
Yes, but not in the Platinum Premium Members Lounge.

Probably would’ve, like all good things, never paid too much attention to the financial side of our farming as I always had an other carrier path in mind.
There are always people with money/income to repay the loan but for one thing or other they fall outside of the banking requirements.
blah blah blah Sinc, blah blah blah .
You’ll be sorry.
Listen to the bint appealing to the higher power to defend her honour.
Reminds me of the post she made about the ‘Russian Boyfriend” …implication being that she was gonna have him fight for her honour.
just another version of that old chestnut, “let’s you and him fight”
Here’s how it works in man space.
We fight like crazy and truth be known, I’d probably kick his sorry russian arse …. sistema, krav maga … omfg?
or not. and then we pick one or the other off the ground and we work out pretty fast that the words of another nasty divisive witch made us risk our lives.
That’s what yr trying to do here Elle… and you’re getting really really mouthy because nobody wants to step up for you honour.
Have you realized yet that maybe the reason nobody wants to is that … you have no honour?
stinks in here
Racist! I demand you learn mine. 😉
You stink, Matrix.
Child.
Your grammar is appalling, bespoke.

I hear Morose Giraffe is doing a private acoustic set?
LOL
This “bint” has offended a couple of poor petals.
Sob.
keep my grandma out of it, Elle
I am 40 bespoke. GoldenEye was and still remains the gold standard of gaming. The AFL cartridge for this system was ordinary but fun also.
Innit funny how both notafan and Elle start to sound exactly like Numpty when they dont get there own way?
I wonder why that is?
It is funny. I’m laughing out loud.
did I hit a nerve sweetie?
How have I not got my own way, Matrix? I’ve had a very successful day. Very happy.
Seriously, this is too funny.
shut up woman, watch yr movie
Only my gay friends call me sweetie. 🤣
I wondered about the gender imbalance for about, ooh, three seconds.
Picturesque distillery and surrounds, but the drink sucks* when compared to the Oban whiskies.
*No such thing as bad single malt. Just different.
Get a room you two.
Everyone else is still laughing at my contagious joke.
Either at, or with.
The extent of Morose Giraffe’s repertoire.
well…apparently not.
LOL
Looks like 👍🏽
It’s good you know a bit about the cast in spite of not having seen it.
Harvey (as I call him, and unbeknownst to him) is great in Bad Detective. Language and content warning.
Juliette Lewis is compelling, and I reckon DeNero would say that she was lucky to play off him.
He is a dickhead, but has bones in the acting world.
I think Stealers Wheel was a perfect choice for the off centre Reservoir Dogs.
Happy to chaperone through a screening of From Dusk to Dawn.
Background notes and headphones to listen to a blow by blow description extra.

Lit Up. The Bamboos.

No I don’t, Overburdened. Will check it out tomorrow.
Thank you for that.
Cheers. 🙂
Do you have your own b a lls BB or do the oldy’s let you handle theirs?

We were on holiday in the Highlands of Scotland a few years ago. The tour guide was the ultimate party animal, who seemed surprised to discover an Australian tourist, with a liking for good single malt.
“Thought all you Australians ever drank was beer.”
“Can’t stand the stuff.”
Part of the tour involved a ferry ride, from Oban, to an island, the name of which escapes me, and where I subsequently discovered, my favourite distillery was located.
The Memsahib was caustic. “Huh, good job you didn’t know that the Tobermorey distillery was there. You and the tour guide would have had your mail forwarded there, and I’d have had the job of dragging you both out of there…”
How the hell do you give a voice like this over to drugs?
New Fred!
Oh, and may God have mercy on my sinful, whisky soaked soul, but I did spend some time, in a pub on the Royal Mile of Edinburgh, teaching the howlingly lovely Australian lass, behind the bar, how to serve whisky to the Scots…..
And now Parkinson’s Disease has killed this voice, too. Listen to her range right at the end.
How the hell do you give a voice like this over to drugs?
Dunno.
But it means The Bodyguard is forever watchable.
Apart from a reasonable plot, and Kevin Costner being moody.
Yes but apart from that short list of regrettable incidents above, islam has always been known (clearly, for very good reasons) as the religion o’ peace.
There have been way more attempts than that and very recent attempts. The peasants just don’t get to hear about them.
ABC keeps the faith: “Donald Trump could be savaged in Robert Mueller’s report and we may never know” (but we’ll lie about it anyway)
https://www.abc.net.au/news/2019-02-27/what-happens-when-mueller-releases-his-report/10837078
Zoe Daniels’ kids must have been at Little Aths or something, so the national broadcaster has office intern Emily Olson dispense the wisdom that Trump will suppress all the bad stuff Mueller has uncovered.
Needless to say, young Emily is a huge fan of AOC.
Reminder: We pay for this rubbish
Could I just put in a request that the media please stop publishing ever larger photos of Tayla Harris’ crotch.
