| 343868 | 2005-04-12 01:22:00 | Yeah, I would ride my bike if it weren't for all those angry motorists swerving everywhere cursing the price of petrol... | vinref (6194) | ||
| 343869 | 2005-04-12 01:34:00 | I won't ride my bike in Auckland traffic. The streets and the motorists are just not designed for it. Heck, Auckland motorists barely tolerate pedestrians. I was crossing a road at a pedestrian crossing the other week. From long experience I don't walk on or over until I've made eye contact with any oncoming driver, just to make sure they are awake and are coming to a halt. So I cross halfway, and then look at this car coming the other way. I make eye contact with the young woman driving. She smiles pleasantly at me, and continues to smile pleasantly at me as she drives right through the crossing with me standing in the middle of it. I shouted abuse at her departing exhaust fumes. Where do these people learn to drive? |

| 343870 | 2005-04-12 01:36:00 | Run over any Cane Toads? I killed many many cane toads, One of the jobs I had was rebuilding the stone pitch walls along the Brisbane river (river cats had washed out all the slurry and the walls were falling down) if the tide or wash had got behind the wall there would be a cavity, which we pumped slurry into (a mixture of cement,sand and water,no stone so it wasn't concrete).....anyhow the cavitys were sometimes filled with cane toads,and they would rise with the slurry level,when the slurry got high enough to see there would sometimes be hundreds and hundreds of Cane toads writhing and dieing in the soulution,when it got to the top dozens of the doomed creatures would leave out and try and make escape while coated in cement. Another time I drove over one in a bobcat,squashed it flat,came back an hour later and it was 4 feet up the wall (we were inside an open drain) clawing itself up the side with one limb.... Still,they are pests and have to be killed. |

Don't bother getting a warrant or registering your car next time. Wait until you get pulled over and given a ticket, tell them you couldn't read the expiry dates then blame it on your doctor since he was the one who said your eyesight was OK. He can then pay your fine. :thumbs: |

| 343872 | 2005-04-12 03:08:00 | I often see people buying tapwater at more than $1.15 a litre. Why don't they drink petrol? | Graham L (2) | ||
| 343873 | 2005-04-12 03:42:00 | I often see people buying tapwater at more than $1.15 a litre. Why don't they drink petrol? It has become a fetish, with so many people walking around clutching water bottles, even those who are not actually physically exercising. It is another sign of the madness virus that has swept the world. |

| 343874 | 2005-04-12 05:44:00 | I agree Terry the stupidly virus is everywhere. I live opposite a Church and one day there was a rather large funeral. Well, along comes this guy, probably in his forty’s or maybe even fifty’s, immaculately dressed in a very fine suit, with one of these tit topped water bottles in his hand. Off he went and joined the congregation with not a “White Coat” to be seen. Unbelievable! |

When I got home last night my wife demanded I take her out to some place expensive..... So I took her to the gas station..... (ps It wasn't sent from New Zealand) |
