Blah-Blah Bar / Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading)
To be fair..when it initially seemed that Trump had suffered a superficial wound to his ear and no-one else had been injured in a crowd behind him despite multiple shots...the same thought crossed my mind...briefly.
How could so many shots into a crowd that size possibly miss collateral damage.
Sadly..they didn't.

I tend to agree with Kruddler. A bloodied Trump rises defiant after being shot.
Race over!


For sepsis we pray…

Geez Thry 🙄
I’m 57 and everyone thinks they had the best childhood and the toughest upbringing.
I personally see people with discretionary spending that’s their choice, some of them don’t want to own that…
Is life today difficult, yeah.
So make choices and sacrifice if you need and achieve what YOU want, not what the Neighbours have.

Robert Heatley Stand / Re: AFL Rd 17 2024 Post Game Prognostications Carlton vs GWS
Second quarter we shifted the A team out of the middle.  I noticed one centre bounce where Fogarty, and the second stringers attended.  This helps gws catch fire and get a run on.  You'd think 8 goals up we can do this safely, but i noted during gws run on cripps was not attending centre bounces in the second quarter until it tightened up.  I think we were reacting to a few things going on at once.

I actually thought Cripps was off the ground ?
I thought he was getting treatment for his shoulder ?

You don't need a President.
Our system is fine.
If we become a republic...
You don't need a head of state.
You could end up with Eddie McGuire as President...if they give the vote to Collingwood supporters.
The Prime Minister is as high as you need to go.
Totally agree on the popular vote Lods.
The GG would be our Head Of State, elected by parliament.

Or as John Laws used to say, "when youre on a good thing, stick to it". I have travelled a lot and have friends and relos in many coutries and we are truly blessed (bar the odd f-wit here and there). We aint broken (by comparison), just leave it alone.
Yep.
I can understand some don’t want Betty or Charlie et al as our head of state and as Australia becomes less a child of Britain I’m starting to lean toward an Australian head of state
As you point out G2C, effectively our system isn’t broken, we could have a HOS elected by 2/3 majority of both houses.
Popular vote..? PASS.

Edit: Current GG = Head Of State, elected by joint sitting of parliament.
