    I have spent 39 years working in the 'legal system' and I have formulated a number of ideas about its worth, failures and the people who administer sentencing.

    Aussie TV icon faces criticism over controversial Facebook post! What did he say?

    This is what is happening with 'Aussie humour', it is disappearing. We could laugh at ourselves, at anything and it was all done together. Now, we have become a 'splintered society', looking for some smutty, hidden meaning or agenda in everything. Bring back the 'Benny Hill humour, Kingswood...

    Haggling With the Dentist

    I was adopted when 6 days old, found out that I was adopted when 22. Mum and Dad had a lot of talk about whether to tell me or not, they decided they would.

    Aussie's explosive rant about Cadbury's 'rip-off' takes an unexpected turn

    When I use to buy 'fast food', I would always ask the employee when I ordered, 'could I please have my order items match the display photo on the screen,' the re-action was a puzzled look at me and then turn to the screen. Most replies were 'that's what you ordered', I didn't understand what...

    A common quote is 'customer feed-back' or we 'conducted a survey' however, never seen the 'results published', or how many people participated, just a way to remove competitors products and replace them with their own or crap products.

    'I own that mistake.': Did a NSW minister go too far with taxpayers’ money?

    The question that I would like an answer to is what if she didn't get caught, would she have paid back the money that she abused and took out of the public money fund.

    Aussies brace for shocking fuel price surge: 'Oil companies must fix this now'

    I wrote to the NRMA when this 'petrol cycle' began asked what it was all about and a couple of more questions. Their response was that they didn't post my letter in the magazine.
