Try banging the rocks together, I'm sure you can do that

So long as you keep your thumbs out of the way.

What a lovely story regarding the Victorian school children.

"The people here will never forget the courage... and sacrifice of so many young Australians," local mayor Patrick Simon said.

The local school was built with money raised by Victorian schoolchildren in the 1920s.

Adding this old article from the Victorian Bushfires.

That's a big ask. Is it stressful to you? Perhaps you should be more realistic and set your sights lower.

Failing that, he could always set his sights higher.

1. The Rev is driving his car, when suddenly the engine stops working! If he is travelling at 10 ms-1 and his deceleration is 2 ms-2 how long will it take for the car to come to rest?

2. The Rev abuses the RAA Patrolman for working on the Sabbath day. How long will it take the Patrolman to tell the Rev that he was sent by God, to repair the car in time for the Church Service?

Extract from item by a Sunday Mail columnist today, amongst the discussion of terror etc:

You can see why people hate an organisation like ISIS, and I'm among them, but it's hard to fathom why they would trawl the White Pages on the off chance that the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria had branch offices listed in the Australian telephone book so they could register their displeasure with the receptionist.

Which, of course, is exactly what happened, with the poor buggers at the ISIS office refurbishment company fielding calls from halfwits asking them to put an end to the terror.

Imagine if you rang the wrong one y mistake. Sorry Mr Al-Baghdadi, we were just after some filing cabinets, not an Islamic caliphate.

These are terrifying times, for sure, and they bring with them an often terrifying level of stupidity.

Hard to believe, but there you go. And those people vote.

I was pondering the pic of a comet compared to Los Angeles and wondered how much I could sell it for to the Chinese as high grade ore?
