    Rock legend Dick Diamonde of The Easybeats dies at 76, leaving behind a lasting musical legacy

    Oh, what a great time it was for music. The Easybeats remind me of the days I used to tote around a record player and do the dancing in the lounge room thing with the vinyls hopping around and my best friend and I doing pretend guitar on tennis racquets. Friday on my mind .... their big hit...

    Some people just can't help acting like right Burkes. If the shoe was on the other foot, how would they feel if someone decided to park in their garage. Sometimes, one has to lay clear boundaries straight away. If someone behaves in such a manner before you move in, it is most likely there...

    Australians Are Furious! See How Much Coles and Woolworths Are Charging for Tim Tams – Is It a National Scandal?

    Can't please all the people, all of the time. Before coming to arrangements like this, there has to be a round table discussion about rights and responsibilities of all parties. Unfortunately, the parents were not coping, as is the case with many folk on a pension. For that reason, their...

    American faces backlash for attacking Australians on healthcare: ‘Nothing is free’

    There was no agreed co-payment. I paid full cover for many years...total waste of money. The amount I had to pay was simply described as the GAP. If you think you are totally covered, most likely you will be wrong.

    Another confession to make: Rock and Roll Hall of Famer's recent revelation shocks the music industry

    Since the dawn of time, things like this have happened. I have to smirk at the headline on this thread that asked How did this happen? Well, when a man meets a women and ...... need I say more.

    Shocking In-flight Incident: You Won't Believe What These Parents Did In Their Plane Seat!

    This made me smile. I heard on the radio this morning, one of the male announcers admitting he barfed all over his baby when changing her nappy. The smell was to much for the inept young dad. Further to that, he looked down, saw his own digestive fluid, then let loose again. I thought that...
