I'd be inclined to take a visit to the local police station and make a statement about the phone call. Get the pranksters up on charges of impersonating a police officer. Police might call you for minor things such as your wallet being found on the street, but as for traffic offences of this...

Re: anyone going to ADFA You have a pilot's licence already? Is it a PPL? Also how many hours TT have you got?

Going by the TT report, those Yank Scientologists looked VERY cultish. If they can't accept that there are other viewpoints in existence contrary to their own, than they are definitely not a religion.

About 100 Knots, 1000 feet above Panania in a Cessna.

I'm straight.

Obviously you don't know what a Train GUARD is. They are train crew, not station staff as you suggest. They have an important duty to ensure that trains depart stations on time and that everyone gets on and off the train safely, as well as the duties of dealing with customers in the form of...

Uh no. It's because he burned the Australian flag. You got any more cards left in that race pack of 52 that you'd like to play?

Re: McDonalds Wages Don't worry, they never called me to tell me when my first shift is... Bloody good management they've got, yeah right.

I think sticking him in Abu Graihb and letting the marines rape his arse raw would've been a more fitting punishment for the crime. Should've been charged with treason too...

Probably been said before, but anyways... "Let's play Titanic. When I say iceberg, you go down."

Well David, if you've got a spare grand or 2 lying around, you could always take flying lessons at Banksown Aiport. There's one flying school in particular there that do holiday programs that take students from zero hours right up to the solo stage. Trust me, it's a fun hobby. Until the money...

PCYCs are alright. I do weightlifting training at one.

I do, at the Zig Zag Railway, but that's probably not the kind of volunteer work you'd be looking for... You could always go help the homeless or something, that's what our year co-ordinator's getting us to do in the holidays as a compulsory activity for part of a day...

I had a feeling that with the refurbishment complete, it does have ticket barriers. But obviously I'm wrong.

First? Pffft. How's about jumpseat? :P

My take on this is that you would. I know if I was to go to the middle east or somesuch, I'd make sure I follow the dress code and the culture so as not to offend, because I'm in THEIR nation. Likewise, when a person from another culture comes here, they should follow our culture and customs so...

Meh, I'll withdraw myself from the argument before it gets any more heated! I just thought Labor disagreeing with the US was the natural logic. I mean, one of their key campaign points is that they'd withdraw Australian armed forces from the war in Iraq, which pretty much equates to going...

@ circusmind I agree Howard does appear to sympathise with Bush rather than the US itself, and yes I perceive that what Howard is doing in merely keeping the US happy may be perceived as a 'one sided relationship'. Yet I feel that it works. Anyway given time I'm sure we'll see some new...

Your perception of his clumsiness may be that he complies with pretty much everything that America says, and agrees with what they do, but I'd say that's actually the most effective way to maintain the relationship. Because if Howard was to disagree with the US, well I'm sure they could easily...
