owners of big dogs (shepherds) which attack a bitch from behind when she is simply chasing a ball in an off-lead area - bowls her over - just a "yelp" and a limp at the time - .. which 6 months later requires a $4000 knee reconstruction to correct the damage

Yes mate, but if one of the "DOGs" Sydneys Premier ARL Team got a , how shall I say it, a gentle hold on Paris Hilton tonight in some upclass dunnie in Sydney tonight and she developed a frozen shoulder in six months time would it be fair to label that GREAT FOOTBALL TEAM as being responsible.?????

The media coverage given to the Sydney Hobart yacht race. And also ban participation by all who don't carry enough insurance to pay to extricate themselves when things go wrong.

Yes in fact all "heros" who do stupid things to make themselves important then expect the taxpayer to bail them out when it goes wrong, ie: sending half the AU navy to pick up a sailor who gave up circumnavigating the bloody planet.

Seems the taxpayer bails everyone out, imagine how much LESS tax you'd be paying if they gave a toss about how and when the throw it away.

Nah. Yer pretty safe here in Oz, mate. At the next erection, half the liberalists will end up voting labour and half the labourists will end up voting liberal.

Unlike yer average die-hard Pommie labor or liberal supporter (or whatever they call 'emselves in tha Olde Darte), yer average Ozzie voter couldn't give a toss about the flamin' party crap.

All that matters is who is gunna pay fer tha next round!

1. Nyden, recognise GG's input for the pretty amusing stirrer that he is.

2. I don't think anyone has a problem with environmentalists choosing to carry their goods in anything they choose. It's the exaggeration of the problem and the consequent plan to ban perfectly functional plastic bags that annoys me.

3. I would like to choose to use plastic bags. I use them responsibly. I do not want to have to buy them for my kitchen bin rather than recycle the supermarket carrybags.

4. I have an absolute aversion to the green environmentally friendly bags.
Not sure exactly why, perhaps the holier than thou attitude of their users.

5 Many years ago we used paper carrybags. Maybe this idea could be revived made from recycled paper.

1. As long as GG doesn't expect to be taken seriously lol.

2, 3, 4. We always get a few plastic bags for the dog droppings, but otherwise use the green bags. Nothing to do with holier than thou - it's called trying to do something. Julia I'll let you try to self-analyse yourself as to why you have an "absolute aversion" to them.

Problem occurs when the plastic bags have a hole (usually a small hole just where you pick up the droppings). I used to give those bags to the kids when they took the dog for a night walk - but they don't fall for that one anymore.

I'm told that there are recyclable bags available at the vets for dog-droppings. Might give them a go this year.

Otherwise I guess I use green bags for the dog as well - photo refers

Incidentally, (around here anyway) you're not permitted to put light plastic bags in the yellow recycle bins. You'd think they'd permit that (or otherwise ban them altogether) - since they are so light they could easily be separated (you'd think) and given a quick blast of flame.

Maybe they could sell small home kits where you burn the bloody things in a quick burst of flame.

Or maybe make them all black so that they're not confused with jelly fish.
Surely they could be make more biodegradable. albeit at a small price penalty.
5. Or as you say Julia, made of recycled paper - but strength might be a problem.

I would ban people who try to ban other people's bans. As I'm sure Big Brother would say "all bans are good bans."

gfresh · 2 January 2009

I would like to ban banning! Let people be free, only makes them restless and more likely to do stupid **** if it's written they're not allowed to..

Very much over-regulated country these days, it's getting frustrating...

Smoking.

Gossiping excessively, people need to get their own lives and live them.

And the final and most important one: "Wogs" who try to talk and act "fully sick".

What does the blue comment mean?

would be nice to have a bit less insensitivity from the press

tacked onto the end of this webpage is a note about John Travolta and his son ... Some editor's have a strange idea of "entertainment"
