I've been using mozilla for about 4 months now and like it much better than IE or Netscape. The tabbed browsing is really handy, and I like the way the sidebar tucks away when you're not using it. I don't buy many things online, so I can't comment on secure sites, but I haven't encountered any...

Too true mate, too true.

quote from previous link "March sales of Commodore (9084 vehicles) is the highest achieved by any model of any make in Australia since the HQ Holden in 1973." Took them nearly 30 years to get back on their feet. :excl:

$110 miilion! that'd be at least half a billion in todays $$$ 'spose, it did save the company though! Interesting, the Senator thing. Wonder if that's where HSV got the idea? btw, did you see this the other day in the news

Great stuff bartender. I used to love dr. seuss as a child, and it's great to see someone carrying on in his style. I've been reading a few of his 'beginner' books to my 3 year old niece lately and she just laughs and laughs at the way he rhymes. If you ever get the chance, read his book 'the...

No and Yes, perhaps? Time, you are quite right about the buick 3.8 V6, turbo 400 trans, and gen3 V8s, but the original '79 Holden Commodore was just an Opel Commodore, with very few modifications made to it for the Australian market. This proved to be a big problem for Holden, because the road...

That's a hot looking car Corvair, is it yours, or do you own a Corvair? Could this be a distant cousin of the '55 Chev? (albeit in a rather sad state)

There's a similar problem in Australia, and has been for some time, of illegal tobacco flooding the market. The problem is, this tobacco is being sold 'under the counter' in so many different stores (video shops, asian grocers, coffee shops, bookstores and at markets) that it is nearly...

Just thought of a point you may like to ponder Tannin. If polonium can be added to cigarettes with people being none the wiser, then the age expectancy of a smoker can be reduced significantly further, ie: even greater economic profit.

sorry about the broken link :-?

Yes I am a smoker, and have been for about 10 years. I smoked 'cancer sticks' for nearly 5 years, mainly "Peter Jackson" or "Marlboro", until I started to become aware of what was in them. So then I changed to 'roll your own' tobacco. IMHO, rolly tobacco gives you a much more satisfying...

That was truly enlightening, thank you bartender. :D

Thank you very much for pointing out my error and making the necessary corrections Will. I'm glad you pointed it out to me before there were any serious repercussions.

This is the first website I have ever made, and I would like to share it with all of you. It's not the greatest site in the world, but there are a few pics of my car restoration project (hopefully a few more soon), and a couple of links as well. Note: please don't be too shocked by the lack of...

Very interesting links corvair. Some seriously creative artwork on a few of those cars, but I truly wonder what inspired this...

I wonder if anyone has invented luminous tattoo ink? Be a great marketing possibility for this scene.

whoops! A: antidistablishmentarianism

Q: the most annoying children's television show ever made is.......... Q2: some people call my car this :evil: A:

Q: oops, I lost a tooth. Now I have........ A: caboose

Here's where you too can get one of these ridiculous accessories :lol: he he he

i think i'll just give up :(

doh! too late Q: those phones that don't have cords on them A: Viking Eggeling

Q: what grandma's house smelt like after grandad died A: Viking Eggeling

where do you get that one from jake? I've never seen it before

They look like some mighty tasty beers there GIANT, looks like I'll have to get over to America one day and do a microbrewery tour as none of these beers seem to be available in Australia. Of course I'd also have to visit the Jack Daniel's distillery while I was there too..........mmmmm, Jack...

Bartender, you must have a try of this one (that is, if you can get your hands on a bottle). I believe this is the best beer in Australia and I think a lot of other people do too........... Quote: "Coopers Extra Strong Vintage Ale, which retailed last year at $50 a case, is now being offered...

Well done Handruin, sounds like you're a natural :D All the best with your future pursuits in racing. It's always good to join a new club and find people helpful and encouraging. IMO, there's not enough of that in the world today.

After hearing about SR from him for ages, I finally managed to get 'jake the dog' to send me the link. I've been viewing SR's bar and grille for about 6 months and found a lot of the posts very interesting. It was good to find a forum with such a varied range of topics and, most of all...

BTW, yes that is gir. He's zims robot companion and he's as dumb as a hat full of a@#$holes

Correct, Jake the Dog! :D Invader Zim is the most twisted cartoon I've ever seen. The way humans are portrayed in that cartoon (from an alien point of view) is soooooo twistedly funny. Oh and predictably, the alien, Invader Zim, tries to destroy the human race every episode and, even more...

Mine is considerably faster than most electric ones I've seen, but it's not at all fast for a gas car. It's set up with mid-range gearing to get the best of both worlds. Some of the road racing gas cars have three-speed gearboxes in them and they absolutely fly. I found the same problem with my...

Just wondering if anyone has had Absinthe before. I've always wanted to try it but it's about $300 US a bottle on import, and I don't want to spend $500 AU to find out I don't like it. Have read a few reports on the net, and the reasons why it was banned in most countries, but I'm still curious...

Yeah it has the same size engine and is a similar scale, although after seeing the 'behemoth' I think I might invest in some new tyres (that truck would run over anything!!!) I tried to get into racing about 10 years ago, but you wouldn't believe how competitive it can be. Besides, it's much...

BTW, do you know who it is? If so you'll recognise my avatar.

I'm unsure about the radio birdman reference on the stooges album, but I do know radio birdman covered TV Eye on the australian version of 'radios appear'...........and what a version too! Aaaahhhhhh......Fugazi, are you familiar with their work? These guys are the masters of off-beat music and...

Hey Flagreen, love the avatar :D

.....and I thought mine was tough looking :eekers:

Radio Birdman are one of the best bands ever IMHO. Their album 'living eyes' is one of my all-time favourites. Why is it that so many bands break up after releasing two or three masterpiece albums? BTW 'radios appear' was released in two versions; the Australian version, and the 'overseas'...

I've got a 1/8 scale 'mint las vegas' that's in bits @ the moment. It's got a .21 cubic inch two stroke engine that runs on nitromethanol. :mrgrn: I'll post a pic of it as soon as i can.

That's excellent news, especially after the last attempt

OK, that was a bad post. sorry if I broke your game jake

q. what I'm going to be doing when I finish painting the boot lid of my car. a. pomegranite

Hayseed Dixie sound like an interesting band, I'll have to look around for their albums.

.........and heavy metal singers, who sound like they have a chainsaw in their mouth

Anything to keep the tap flowing. :mrgrn:

never long enough, because it tastes so good. Although I have managed to keep a few bottles of stout for about 12 months, and they were beautiful. I need to start brewing more so I can get a stock pile built up.

i love oolong with yum-cha

I'm beginning to understand, but I am a little 'slo' :wink:

Hi Tannin, are you related to tea and do you have a brother called red wine?
