Yes it is 'Giiligan' but there he is 'Maynard G. Krebbs ' .

I would have thought

Really ? I much more preferred My early 'work ethic' model;

I never realised that was 'The Hulk' ... that must be where he caught that 'green Martian' colour from. That used to be on tv in afternoon after school rather lame I thought but watched it to just pass the tv time until this came on or this

'Portable' TV

What we thought robots of the future would look like ( apparently it was important that one head/ring/ antenna was vertical and the other horizontal ,,, even though they circles ) The ideal companion ... what they ended up looking like

Delusional guy in silly outfit that thinks he has special abilities meets Spiderman .

They get paid over there ? Ours dont ... apparently ours 'dont want to be paid ' according to our genius leader ; ... they must do it for 'fun' Scott Morrison rejects paying volunteer firefighters battling unprecedented blaze, says 'they want to be out there' https://7news.com.au/politics/scott-morrison/scott-morrison-rejects-paying-volunteer-firefighters-battling-unprecedented-blaze-says-they-want-to-be-out-there--c-598843 anyway, all the best for Cal , we know what that is like , good luck . Here winter is cold and wet , that's unusual but promising , if it continues , in a certain way, things will be damp and green for summer , or in another way, it encourages more growth and if followed by dry, the more growth dries out and creates more fuel . Last year when fires where bad here and I stayed out on the coast at Dave's place and that amazing spot behind that quiet little beach , I was wondering what I would do this summer if it turns out bad ( since he left the area ) . Then yesterday, I saw him in town and he told me he got offered his old job back there and the same house . I offered to pay some rent in advance . and reserved the top back room that faces the beach ... Yahoo ( thanks 'Mum' - booglebear )

The concept was popular for a time even ..... wait for it ..... Nuclear powered sea planes The Air Force’s atom-plane test efforts involved a highly-modified B-36 bomber with a reactor in its stern bomb bay and a 12-ton lead-and-rubber capsule for the crew. ... a Pratt & Whitney liquid-metal-cooled reactor, a heat exchanger and some serious plumbing to run superheated (radioactive) air into special P&W gas turbines. The “hot” gas would replace gas heated by jet fuel once the big plane reached cruising altitude. Four jet engines would get the seaplane airborne while two nuclear turbojets would take over during cruise.

Consolidated PBY Catalina What a way to tour the Great Barrier Reef ; flying view excellent , land anywhere and you have instant houseboat accommodation .,

Congee ... with little cold cubes of boiled chicken breast meat ... it just doesnt work with chicken thigh . I actually had that for the last few morning's breakfast ; congee cooked with ginger and sprinkled with chopped chicken, coriander, bean shoots, fried shallots, soy, fish sauce and sliced chilli soaked in rice vinegar .... mmmmm . - actually, now that I think about it, the chicken I usually use for that IS 'breast' but this time it was 'tender loins' ..... now, chickens have 'loins' too . Your breastfeeding explanation seems a little far fetched to me but, for the moment , I will make my breakfast later .... I just cant seem to get out of bed this morning

You left out the 'falsies' . Pelicans have 'false boobs' on their breasts , sacks full of air ... that act like , well, an air bag .

My father would take us ... always on the look out for cheap family entertainment . I remember, as a 20+ youth living at ' Western Flat' ( aka west and flat ) South Australia ... we got so GD bored that we would drive 200km to a drive in movie and 200km back after it . It was a small screen in a paddock, privately run, only fitted about 30 cars. Occasionally a cow would wander in front of the screen and the cars would honk horns and flask headlights at it . The cow would stand thee dumbly staring, with half the movie projected on to it , until someone got out and chased it away Yaahoo ... we off to the drive in movies .... yay

OMG My prediction ( actually , in the form of stand up comedy sketch ... but - who knows ) ) about ... Barnaby's Baby .... might come true . ( One might have to be an aussie to get that . ) Barnarby has a long history of pollie boys club stupidity. Then he rooted one of the women in parliament and they had a baby. My contention is, that was a special pollies breeding plan ..... its taken generations to breed morons like this ... to get the parents of our new and upcoming super PM . Of course, Barnaby got kicked out . But recently when our PM was OS Barnaby got elected as vice PM and they voted the other out, effectively making him our PM de jure , also, due to numerous complaints, comments, sackings and a rape in parliament house , a new investigation / re education has been started about men's attitude in government .... the old vice PM was in charge of that .... so now Barnaby is in charge of that , which caused outrage. He has promised he will oversee it fairly . Politicians promising things ....... "Yes, I did get $150,000 for that media interview when my career ended , but as soon as the cheque clears , I'll be back ."

I predicted this 'proud display' a while back ;

Road ... who needs a road ? 1959: First Public Flight by a Full-sized Hovercraft I used to have a kit model one of those . Build it, paint it, put the transfers on

Citroen DS The worlds first mass produced front wheel drive , four wheel independent suspension, uni-body construction ( omitting a separate chassis, and instead using the body of the car itself as its main load-bearing structure) - in 1934 ! In 1954 they produced the world's first hydro-pneumatic self-levelling suspension . A year later disc brakes and in 1967, swivelling headlights that turned with the steering . single hydraulic system activated the power steering , suspension and brakes ( fully powered and not power assisted ), the gear shift shift ( with actuating pistons in the gearbox to shift the gears in the transmission which also operated an internal clutch automatically ( so no clutch pedal ) and aerodynamic design . Hydro pneumatic relies on the combined abilities of gas to compress and absorb force , while liquid does not and supplies direct transmission of force . Blue: Nitrogen gas; Gold: Hydraulic fluid under pressure from engine-driven pump This results in ; the car maintains a constant ride height above the road, regardless of passenger and cargo load and despite the very soft suspension. Smooth and comfortable ride and is often compared to riding on a magic carpet , or gliding . These vehicles shared the distinguishing feature of rising to operating ride height when the engine was turned on, like a "mechanical camel" . A lever or switch beside the driver's seat allowed the driver to adjust the height of the car; this height adjustability allows for the clearing of obstacles, fording shallow (slow-moving) streams and changing tyres. I have always wanted one ; lift up the car for the long rough driveway out of the farm , medium height for the rough road to town, then lowest for the highway . The problem was ..... you need to live in France , or have a local Citroen mechanic handy .

Yes. It seems simple thing to do . and has not garishly wrecked the DBs banner . I'm sorry but the current one is just atrocious . color form aand design all wrong ... looks like someone put aa garish sticker on some nice balanced harmonious artwork . I mean ..... could not that be seen at first glance ?

Not that I want to criticize anyone's efforts , but ...... when I opened site today and saw the new DBs header ....

Maybe if I just keep quiet she will go away .
