Let's test the theory

[Peter R]

Reading the why don't they fix something or other sections of this forum I think it is about time we put our actions where our mouth is.
This forum has produced a lot of clear thinking clever analysists of the problems of the country. It also has a national contribution.
How about we agree on a topic that affect Australians as a nation and we determine the politician we canvas and then all send emails in support of our campaign.
I don't want to lead the charge, but I would like to prove that society (you and me) can make changes.

what do you reckon folks?

No offence intended Peter, but sn't that the root cause of all our ills??

As long as someone else does the hard yards to get our good ideas across the line we're all happy??

I reckon the idea has some merit, and it's your idea, sooo......

LEAD ON McDUFF!!

Problem - How to reduce the number of plastic bags going into landfill.

Idea - Reduce the number of plastic carry bags handed out by supermarkets by getting customers to use reusable shopping bags.

Measure - The number of bags used by Supermarkets is reduced therefore the number going into landfill is reduced.

Problem (after Gov pats itself on back) the number is not reduced as the sale of garbage bags has increased to the same extent as the reduction in usage of shopping bags.

Winners - Shops now save money on plastic bags. Make money on sale of garbage bags and green shopping bags. Public think they are doing good.

Discuss pro and con - "We have been conned"

No NO....How many times can you refill a Pump water bottle with milk for smoko until the little line of milk scum (which gets there from when you come home shagged and forget to clean out the smoko bag) breaks away and puts a blob of rotten milk in ya brew??.. And do you:

A) Drink it anyway
B) Give the brew to your oppo
C) tip it out an make another??

These are the important questions....and who was the idiot who called it a funny bone...and why is it that when you save some piece of Shyte junk, it lies around for three years until you chuck it in the tip and a week later you need it???

You blokes aren't being serious. All poor old Peter wanted to do was pass the buck and you lot keep pushing the post off to someone else to answer. That's the attitude that has made this country what it is today ... such a bloody good place to live.

"dermafoam" you get it from your local vet, it kills fleas and ticks on contact and helps with any skin conditions.. it even smells ok so your pooch can come in da house. I used it regularly with my dog for 13 yrs and his coat was great until the day he died. RIP the dog... :(

its a bit pricey but good - especially if you dont want "odur de Dog" indoors.

You just knew I would return, didn't you?
I have finally come up with the one thing that we can petition the federal government to implement, but first I must drag this out a bit.
Go to thread one and then return - do not stop along the way or you will get hopelessly lost.
This concept comes from the great minds of the renowned post hijackers, Scooter, Christopha, Daveinoz, sturdee and all those others that seem to be brain dead and only wait until I submit something before the get on the bandwagon. (insert a nervous giggle here).
Now the concept, are you ready for it? Is your email ready to burn?
Here goes:
Being as the Yanks trained the pilots for the Twin Towers episode I think that John Howard should set up a suicide bombers school here in Australia. We don't want the Yanks beating us at everything they do, do we?
The message should go out (although I think it has already) that Australia is a great place for anyone to set up ethnic gangs and criminal organisations, and that the politicians are all wearing blinkers.
Back to the Suicide bombers school. The middle of the country would be an ideal place to establish the academy - the desert would make the students feel at home and no neighbours would be distrubed by the noise of exploding munitions.
The only criterion for this course would be that no one leaves until they pass the final exam.http://www.woodworkforums.ubeaut.com.au/images/icons/icon10.gif

A suicide bombers school right here in the bush! You know Peterr I didn't think you were actually that bright but that really is a good idea...... except it's already happening..... or haven't you noticed all of the suicidal, often religiously inclined, intellectually challenged sociopaths out there on the roads of Oz? They are easily recognised by the payload attached to their misguided missiles.... usually called caravans, campervans or camping trailers! :eek: :eek: :eek:

I hereby tender to you my sincerest apology for the following post

The post was in jest and a flippant remark mainly in respect of your monkey avatar and not meant to give offence. I had no idea that it would upset you enough to give me a raspberry. :o :o :o Sorry mate.

[Peter R]

O.K.

You go first.Sorry, a doofus can't go first. I didn't make the rules.

Those milk/water bottles that you blokes have been prattling about reminds me of the bloke that wandered into Bunnings and browsed around, like blokes will.
He noticed a stainless steel thermos on the shelf but didn't know what it was. "What's that?" he asked the very attentive attendant. "A thermos, bloke", he said knowingly, having seen several blokes already this morning. "What's it for" said bloke. "It keeps hot stuff hot and cold stuff cold". I'll have one" says bloke, even though he did not come in for a thermos, but that happens sometimes when blokes go to browse.
The next day bloke is at work, and very eager for smoko to come around so
he can show off his new thermos.
"What's that?" the other blokes asked. He worked at a very blokey place, where Christopha would feel at home, no doubt.
"A thermos" they were told. "What's it for?" they chorused.
"It keeps hot things hot and cold things cold", bloke explains with aclarity.
"I'll be darned" they said as one, "What have you got in it?"
"A cup of tea and an icecream".

Peter R.

Like tonight I decided to cook the kids banana pancakes but we only had some old chocolate icecream...Its amazing, just how good chocolate and banana is.

I was wondering if Zed liked bananas??

Cheers

[Sturdee]

Ofcourse we are taking it seriously.

The thread was highjacked and despite a number of efforts to return to topic :eek: we have managed to keep it highjacked. I think that is taking it seriously. :D :D :D

Now in making the pancakes did you substitute the flour with the icecream and cook them or did you do make them au natural. :confused:


Peter.

[vsquizz]

I used plain flour, one egg milk and milk powder, a little salt and caster sugar. A 4 year old to drive the beaters, with two overipe bananas mashed in at the end. All cooked in a dob of butter and topped with chocolate icecream and Golden Syrup, wonderful.

My problem today is to make one of those dirt levelling thingy's. The local hardware wants $69.00 for the cyclone one when its really a broom handle on a pivoting head with four bars on the end. Any ideas???
