Good to see the Australia’s future gene pool is looking healthy. There is nothing like anecdotal evidence to convince the masses. It is true that when one passes through Auburn you are looking for the hole god placed the enema, but it does have many cultural highlights that has it competing...

I think it must be their elite sporting teams. I heard they have a real tough rugby league side.

The relationship will not last. Drink the potent brew of lust and adventure that uni offers. Forget the past and your girlfriend. Luke the dark side is very powerful.

Re: wow, possibly the easiest thing ive done I was wondering if it was about some historian called John West and the fish he rejected at some remote dock in Alaska. It never occured to me that a metaphor was what I was looking at. Imagine my disappointment when discussing the catch of the day...

Anyone doing Japan?

We are doing Western Imperialism. It fits in well with WW1, Japan 1901-37 and the Pacific War. It also has a good link, via its anti colonialism components, with History Wars. We just did an extensive task relating to a document in which Windshuttle provides a particularly good spin defending...

"Nelsonian does make an excellent point, though, about the abilities of the HSC markers. " Finally a person of breeding and class to make such an astute remark. Emo guy: ' He [Amenhotep] smote the Kush' dont you mean: "He [Amenhotep] smoke the Hash" I haven't heard of a good smote since...

Darcho you need to have a little more class than that. Argue the issues don't play the man. I thought you wanted help with your essay on the narrative. Perhaps your work should be the history of gay bashing. Potent stuff I'm sure it would be. Use you mind not the swamp you have as a mouth...

Welcome to the HSC. Please don't kid yourselves into thinking that the battery hens that will mark the papers will anxiously sit there waiting for some budding von Ranke to brighten up their day. As mad as Darcho may sound his point is not to be casually dismissed. It is impossible to relate to...

I love the smell of napalm in the morning. Darcho you could attack your study from a variety of angles concerning the vulnerability of the narrative.

Darcho you must stop opening car doors with your head. Everyone knows Ho Chi Minh was the girlfriend of that famous Asian gangsta rapper Dien Bien Phu....word!

Naval blockade is an arguable point and could be valid. I left it out because it was expected and the Germans knew they would be shut down at sea. Their submarines offered a glimmer of hope but they were used as an economic more than military tool. By economic I refer to their attacks on supply...
