    Our memories are unreliable, limited and suggestible – and it’s a good thing too

    My memory is a "Block". As a kid in 5th class, 1954, I couldn't understand Algebra, &, hence, I forgot all about it. Didn't hurt me in the slightest as my years progressed to this day. Bye the way, I still don't understand it at all.

    First Guardian collapse leaves thousands at risk of losing super as ASIC freezes director assets

    As bad as everything is for Juan Carlos Sanchez & his super loss, I didn't read the full script, far too long. I, for one, have never heard of the companies mentioned. To me, the only thing I can say is, "If you haven't heard of a specific company, especially to do with financials, don't touch...

    Shoppers break law using trending supermarket trick without realising

    I always look underneath the "New' stickers to compare the price. Many times the 'Bright' new sticker is not a discount offer. Just have to look.

    Would you have spotted the red flag on this $2,849 receipt? This man didn’t—and it nearly cost him big

    Hi RobbyNotThe Robot, Is the decimal point in your posting for the newfangled phone in the wrong spot. I don't think a $2.000 phone would be much chop at all. Just a bit "Picky".

    No husband, no kids, no regrets—why her $1.6m retirement plan has everyone talking

    Hi, Towing, There is no way her super would be in a balanced fund. She'd be in the most aggressive portfolio that would be available to her within her fund. I would expect funds with the highest volatility she could find for absolute greater returns they give. Its a policy that I live by with...

    Nicole Kidman’s Lucille Ball biopic sparks fresh drama—What Ball’s daughter just revealed will shock fans

    As youngens, with our parents, we religiously watched "I LOVE LUCY". Never missed an episode. Lucy, Desi, William & Vivian were a "Barrel of Laughs", virtually non stop.

    Are your cafe habits actually hurting small businesses? This viral sign has everyone talking

    At our favourite caffeine fix place, you quite often see the ignorance of people either just sitting at 'Select' seating, either just reading the newspaper, sitting with others, no drinks or food in sight, or as mentioned, on either a lappy or a phone, tapping away. Its always when a paying...

    One could ask another "?" Under what circumstances was the guy bitten by a bat ? All the bats I see are flying around quite high in the sky, or are perching up high in trees. I know, another half story of facts by SDC.

    Unexpected emergency delays international flight—what passengers experienced mid-air

    Well, its like everything else in life, &, i.e., very unfortunately, when your time is up, its up. In many instances, there is no pre warning. It has happened a few times in my extended family, &, other situations. As sad as it is, there isn't anything that can be done about it.

    Owner shuts down local cafe after shocking assault inside shop

    Hi Lorles, Wow! I fully support your thoughts without question. Unfortunately, the perpetrators, as mentioned, if caught, will only receive a slap on the back of the hand, & that'll be that.

    Heartbreaking discovery in Queensland: Learn why this tragic koala story is a wake-up call for all of us!

    Especially "Brain Dead Bowen". He couldn't give a "Shit" about anything to do with the preservation of any of our natural wildlife or their welfare with his determination to clear our "Bush" to make way for his "Windmills & Wires". We won't get into the plight of our farmers who could be...
