I never liked being force fed anything. So I'll just have to keep my subscriptions to Popular Science, Ode, and things that are important to me. I find it empowering (sorry, can't think of a better word) to think for myself!

I understand that John Travolta is a movie star. I actually like the guy. Great actor. But as far as I am concerned, his kid is no more important than anyone else's and all this sensationalism over it is sickening. |

? But hes gone back to Europe. I think I heard he plays in Italy now...
In any case, it really isnt about his skills as a football (stop using that stupid "soccer" word, damn you! ) player. He and his Spice Girl wife are just... Well, celebrities. Nobody is quite sure why are they so big (cause she is nothing special, and he is not even close to being the best player for years), but they are, so we just have to deal with them...
Oh, and why arent moms and kids real sport fans? If they like real football, they are better sport fans than you...

Oh, I so agree... I actualy remember that this story was out on the same day as the Israeli offensive in Gaza... And even on our news it got more attention!!! One kid dies, and just because he happened to be the son of a moviestar, we have to hear all about it... Oh, and of course, CNN Europe went on about it for half an hour at least... I mean, one, ONE kid died. How big a story can you make out of it? And at the same time, there are much more serious events going on in the middle East... No, that doesnt get into breaking news, because that would actualy make sense, and people would actualy want to hear about it!

I forgot to set my alarm to go off this morning and I woke up at 5:20 am so I totally missed my cycling club. My mate meets me at the top of my road and we go on a two hour ride. It's usually 35 km and we leave at 5 am. I need to be up at latest 4:30 am and I just can't believe I missed the ride because I forgot to make sure my fecking alarm was on. By the time I woke up they would've already been way out of town so I had to just miss the ride this morning. They had a laugh and just said that tomorrow's ride will just be a bit longer so that I can make up for lost km's.
I've already made sure my alarm is set lol. |

A curse be upon the "collector". I'm going to bed to sulk and be mad! I'll get over it in maybe three days when said person in question decides not to buy it for that price after all.
My God! I am actually pissed about this! I need to go the bed and stop embarassing myself.

Well... I suppose the only thing that can be said is that your average child is physichaly weaker than your average adult, and its harder for it to put up a fight (btw. I intentionaly use "it" when talking about children).
Other than that, one of the rare occasions when we agree.
The only ones who have to "care" are the police. Its their job after all. Oh, and the kids family, obviously.

Kids get kidnapped and killed EVERYDAY. It is incredibly unfortunate. It is terribly sad. It is horrible... BUT, it is just another kid! What the hell??

No nasty attacks from me. Like you, I regret the loss of ANY life and especially that of a child. However, it dominates the "news"!!<==I use the term loosly.
The parade of three "experts" about the new evidence all spewing common-sense info that they they'll do plant / insect studies to try and determine if the body was placed there and then ANOTHER four saying the exact same thing? This is news?!? It is sensationalism. With so much going on in the world I simply can't stand all this attention paid to one case that has absolutely NO new information.
Seriously, I get more news here that is important to me and I am a news junkie. Not just heavy metal. I refer to the big international stories that we just don't see here. I sincerely appreciate all you people who post news here. Especially you non-USA members.

seriosly, every time I look at CNN they are talking about her. how many people will kill themselfs if GM and or Chrysler goes under because they cant find work? if only we could stop murder, but we cant, spending all this time on her, I dont get it. kids get killed all the time, it sucks but. Jon bennet was like this, then probably thousands of kids killed with virtualy no news, now this????

Mmmmm Vegemite!! Fear not the Aussie is here.... OK direct from the Vegemite website is some information for those of you who know little about this delicious Australian spread:
Vegemite dates back to 1922 when the Fred Walker Company, which became Kraft Walker Foods in 1926 and Kraft Foods Limited in 1950, hired a young chemist to develop a spread from one of the richest known natural sources of the vitamin B group - Brewers Yeast
Kraft has had an on-going commitment since the 1920’s to reinforce the message to Australians that Vegemite is nearly five times more concentrated than yeast, making it one of the world’s richest known sources of the energy giving Vitamin B group.
So not only is Vegemite a part of Australia’s history, it is also good for us. For generations, Vegemite has and will remain an intrinsic part of Australian family life.
Every Australian is raised on Vegemite, I haven't met a home grown Aussie yet that doesn't like it. I think the problem for foreigners is that they spread it too thick, Vegemite has a strong salty taste and if you spread it like nutella or jam the taste will knock you off your feet.

Something I understand is equally as horrible is Poi. I want to serve it once just so I can relive a Flintstones moment where Fred has to repeat "Please pass the poi" a bunch of times because he keeps flubbing his lines! HO HO!!!

As I was somewhat distracted yesterday, I failed to comment on the whole vegemite bit. I had occasion to try the stuff back in the 80's. There was an Australian bar in San Pedro, Ca. that I frequented on weekends where it was served right on the table. It was in a jar, just like jelly, sitting on every table. Like a moron, I stuck my knife in one and took a big taste. *yeeeeeeecccchhhh* That crap is nasty!! (My sincerest apologies to you, 'Child and your wonderful countrymen) Oh MAN! Just awful.

.LOL... Men At Work.... No i don't wander around singing "I Come From A Land Down Under" Of course it gets played on Australia day and I sing along hehehe
Men at Work were an Australian reggae-influenced rock band which achieved international success in the 1980s. They are the only Australian artists to reach the Number 1 position in album and singles charts in both the United States and the United Kingdom with Business as Usual and "Down Under" respectively.[1] The group won the 1983 Grammy Award for Best New Artist and sold over 30 million albums worldwide
HAHAHAHA Is Wikipedia correct??? did they actually win a Grammy?.... well if they can i'm sure the mighty Priest can?
Here's a link to the video if anyone is intrested... au.youtube.com/watch
Ever heard of a band called "Powderfinger"?.... Definately my favourite Aussie rock band, and they're from Brisbane to boot!! haha I'll add a link to my favourite song of theirs if you're intrested... don't worry no cheesy 80's Aussie lyrics in this one.. just good old rock! au.youtube.com/watch [Show/Hide Quoted Message] (Quoting Message by guidogodoy from Thursday, December 11, 2008 7:47:16 PM)

Mmmmm Vegemite!! Fear not the Aussie is here.... OK direct from the Vegemite website is some information for those of you who know little about this delicious Australian spread:
Vegemite dates back to 1922 when the Fred Walker Company, which became Kraft Walker Foods in 1926 and Kraft Foods Limited in 1950, hired a young chemist to develop a spread from one of the richest known natural sources of the vitamin B group - Brewers Yeast
Kraft has had an on-going commitment since the 1920’s to reinforce the message to Australians that Vegemite is nearly five times more concentrated than yeast, making it one of the world’s richest known sources of the energy giving Vitamin B group.
So not only is Vegemite a part of Australia’s history, it is also good for us. For generations, Vegemite has and will remain an intrinsic part of Australian family life.
Every Australian is raised on Vegemite, I haven't met a home grown Aussie yet that doesn't like it. I think the problem for foreigners is that they spread it too thick, Vegemite has a strong salty taste and if you spread it like nutella or jam the taste will knock you off your feet.

That sounds like a dare to me! LOL!!! Come on, where are our Aussie friends to chime in on the subject? (or at least sing along with me in a verse of "Land Down Under.")
Something I understand is equally as horrible is Poi. I want to serve it once just so I can relive a Flintstones moment where Fred has to repeat "Please pass the poi" a bunch of times because he keeps flubbing his lines! HO HO!!!
