    Would you have spotted the warning signs? The scam that almost cost a man $440,000

    Scammers know that basically, most people are greedy, and that's what they feed off. I've seen documentaries made by former con men, and they don't feel guilty at all. They justify their actions by saying that if their mark wasn't greedy, he/she wouldn't have been able to be scammed.

    Radio host makes shocking claim about women's health—expert responds!

    Thank you so much Jen. Hubby and I have a wonderful adopted son who's 47 years old. He's been married for 17 years to our lovely daughter in law. They've given us our adored grandchildren, 14 and 15. It was hard to go through at the time, but it's made me both strong and empathetic, so it was...

    ‘You can’t treat her like that’: Bystander steps in during heated footpath clash

    I would have thought the clue was in the name: FOOTpath. Say what you like, ebikes are dangerous. Elderly people knocked over by these things in many cases are unable to get to their feet without help. While there is usually help available, it does something to your soul to have to rely on...

    Radio host makes shocking claim about women's health—expert responds!

    I was lucky?? to be born with two completely separate uteruses (uteri?). From the age of 12, I suffered severe period pain every four weeks, with both uteruses contracting together. It was the 50s, so knowledge of endometriosis and parental sympathy were both in very short supply. I was sent...

    Would you call your mum an ‘inseminated person’? New proposal sparks debate

    Sorry, but how is Trump relevant to this topic? Most people wish to have something else to think about other than him. I will say though, that if any politician would call this out for the nonsense it is, Trump would be the man.

    Would you call your mum an ‘inseminated person’? New proposal sparks debate

    Exactly. It's laughable. The problem is, the morons who come up with this drivel will never see how laughable it is.

    Hackers take over government screens, airs strange Trump-Musk footage

    Sorry, but are you reading this thread properly? The same goes for those liking your comment. I replied to a comment by MacMan, agreeing with what he said and adding some thoughts of my own. mylittletibbies answered my comment with rudeness and sarcasm. I replied with respect for her point of...

    Hackers take over government screens, airs strange Trump-Musk footage

    I never at any time said I don't get my information from the internet. I subscribe to several international news services, some European, others American. These news services are independent. Case in point: When Trump was serving his first term as president, he was accused of using Russian...

    Would you call your mum an ‘inseminated person’? New proposal sparks debate

    So a mother is a 'person who gave birth to the child'. As an adoptee, where does that leave me? The woman I called Mum for 62 years wasn't my mother according to this dill. To make matters worse, my only child is adopted, so I guess, having not given birth to him, I'm not his mother. Do these...

    What is the real cause of Australia's housing woes? Prime Minister Albanese weighs in

    It occurs to me that Labor may well be shooting itself in the foot with this importation of Muslim migrants. If Fatima Payman has anything to do with things, there'll be a Muslim Party up and running, if not this election, certainly the next one. Albanese is totally unable to see past the end...

    Thank you. There's a 24 year age gap!

    Sporting communities mourn loss of 56-year-old jockey and 85-year-old rugby legend

    I'm guessing he was the father of Michael Hagan. Michael played for the mighty Newcastle Knights in the early days and was the coach of the team when we won the premiership in 2001.

    Hackers take over government screens, airs strange Trump-Musk footage

    I really don't understand your attitude. I was under the impression that Seniors Discount Club was a forum where seniors could debate and share information with a reasonable expectation of being treated with respect. We're all adults after all. Politics is my thing. I love the intricacies of it...

    Hackers take over government screens, airs strange Trump-Musk footage

    Well, thank you very much MaccaMan! You have literally stolen all the stuff I was going to say! 😂 Seriously though, you forgot the $5.1m in aid to Haiti. Funny thing is, it never got there. Somehow or other, it ended up in the pocket of Chelsea Clinton, daughter of Bill and Hillary. It bought...

    Woolworths teams up with bakery company for game-changing Easter treat

    Sorry, but what does my comment about creeping Americanisation in advertising and food have to do with Trump? As a retired medical professional however, I'll say this: diagnosing someone with one or more medical conditions to get a laugh, isn't funny. I don't like Donald Trump, but I find all...

    Woolworths teams up with bakery company for game-changing Easter treat

    Every time I hear this, I say to my long suffering husband, 'Don't we have any actors here who could have done this job?' This creeping Americanisation of our culture sickening.
