  1. No way was cold chisel as good a AC/DC while Bon Scott was the singer. Albums like High Voltage,TNT,Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap,Let there be Rock, Powerage,If you want Blood you've got it and Highway to Hell are absolute classics. Back in Black their first after Bon died was a good Album however from then on I can understand why some people claim they kept on making the same record over and over again. Cold Chisel while a solid band wasn't in Accer Daccers league IMO and I have seen both live. No offense intended.
  2. I thought about this when I posted it up in the Watcha listening to thread. I posted up the "shorter" 13 minute version .
  3. A new type of celestial body ? https://www.livescience.com/strange-radio-source-milky-way-center
  4. I had been backcountry for a week- Mt.Feathertop- Victoria's second highest peak and a true gnarly mountain with a couple of fall you die chutes. We don't have any other mountains like this one. I came home off the mountain on Friday I think and my friends house was a 100 metres from the bottom of the trail, Bungalow spur track. When I walked through his door his housemate had the telly on and I saw the footage. Coming from the backcountry back to "the normal world" is surreal enough at the best of times however this was full on surreal. When we drove up to Mt.Hotham people were just starting to come to terms with what had happened. Usually things like this don't intrude on what we call "the bubble",sometimes I wouldn't see a tv for weeks however this event did. To be honest I was so focused on being the best skier that I didn't think too much about it. It was only after the season ended,a month later when I got back to the farm and not in ski-bum mode did I realise the ramifications of what did and what would happen.
  5. According to Dana.M.Britton in her book The Gender of Crime "1 in 100 babies are born with ambiguous genitalia,that is genitalia that do not indentify them clearly as male or female". Where do these people fit in your world.
  6. Hey Brother glad to see you are alright. Was a bit worried the other night when you said you were in hospital with chest pains.
  7. Same here. Last night I found a player who was a drafted 207 th and is now rated a top prospect for his team. After inspecting rosters for 20 minutes I found that Mike V has already signed him !
  8. Welcome HOH Just like to thank you in person for your 2022 draft thread. Great resource tool.
  9. I could give you many examples of older white men trying to disempower women starting with the Texas. And it's not just white like you state. Hard won women's rights are being eroded in many societies on this planet. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2019/feb/28/rise-of-the-strongman-dozens-of-female-world-leaders-warn-womens-rights-being-eroded
  10. Did I say you were ? Did I say any percentage at all of old white men are @$$holes ? I am an older white man myself,though I consider myself a human being first and foremost.
  11. There was a landmark ruling in our high court yesterday. News outlets are now responsible for comments made in their comments section. If this was Canada we could have a topic on this. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-09-08/high-court-rules-on-media-responsibility-over-facebook-comments/100442626
  12. I remember playing drop in hockey at big white and this 4 and half foot girl used barrel towards me,hit me in the sternum and send my flying into the snow,it was an outdoor rink. Riah taught me a few things about playing hockey.
  13. Correct me if I wrong brother however I am betting those bunch of people were older white men ?
  14. I believe this is a fantastic move towards gender equality,not just in Hockey but another step towards gender equality full stop. https://www.theguardian.com/sport/2021/sep/07/nwhl-changes-its-name-to-remove-womens-from-title-premier-hockey-federation
  15. You missed his best song of all time and one of my faves Actually I read captain underpants to my beautiful son for 20 minutes before he goes to sleep. However the song rocks !
  16. The same species that spends so much time and resources killing ourselves can still achieve positive things like this. https://www.goodnewsnetwork.org/wooden-floors-harvest-enough-energy-to-turn-on-a-lightbulb/
  17. I'm so hungry I could eat the arse out of a low flying duck
  18. This one is for you @JM_ One of my favourite songs of theirs.
  19. Like I have stated brother music is an integral part of my life.
