    Jackie O made a jaw-dropping confession live on air—and no one saw it coming

    Why are these two still on air? I have to confess I have never actually heard them on radio but have read enough about them to find them distasteful and crass. They seem to scrape the bottom of the barrel just to keep themselves relevant. Is this really what anyone wants to hear? Or, are they...

    Murdoch’s granddaughter faces travel nightmare over one rebellious act

    Sounds like an entitled little brat. Who cares what happens to her? Glad Virgin didn't treat her differently to any other miscreant. Kudos to them!

    Court to decide if Tasmanian supermarket discriminated by not allowing alpaca in store

    Animals should not be allowed in food stores, apart from seeing eye dogs. It's unhygienic and just a tad ridiculous to even consider taking a cat into a food shop. If I'd been the manager I would have stood my ground and insisted you leave. I wouldn't have fallen for the "seeing eye" cat...

    Court to decide if Tasmanian supermarket discriminated by not allowing alpaca in store

    Give me a break - an alpaca?? Has no-one got any common sense left? I hope that magistrate deals with it in the manner deserved - appeal dismissed! What next - rats, monkeys, birds, donkeys, horses, sheep, elephants - all capable of defecating in the food aisles, never mind the disease and...

    Coles shoppers rush to grab $3 limited-edition bag before shelves empty

    I don't think I would be "squealing with delight" over a shopping bag!

    Acclaimed scientist opens up about his health struggles: 'I still seem keen to keep living'

    Professor Scolyer is an amazing man and is a hero in the true definition of the word. Not only because of how he has dealt with his own cancer by allowing himself to be used as a guinea pig, but also with the research he and his partner conducted into cancer research. His selflessness and...

    'Is this woman unreasonable for not sending a Mother's Day basket to her daughter-in-law?

    My God - what absolute nonsense. She's a dog owner! I think the DIL should consider some form of counselling if she considers her animals to be her children. What kind of crazy world are we living in that this nonsense is even considered normal?

    Pedestrian dies in collision with allegedly illegally modified bike on Mornington Peninsula

    It will be interesting to see how severe the charges are for this person. Surely a manslaughter charge should be at the top of the list. That person rode the bike knowing it was illegal and he should suffer the most severe consequences. Judges seem not to consider the devastation on the family...

    What’s Really Going On with Sean Penn? Fans Shocked by His Surprising Transformation and Explosive Revelations

    Perhaps society is so used to seeing all the plastic, botox filled actors with facelifts, bum lifts, fake boobs and whatever - it is surprising to see an actor who has aged naturally, albeit quite hard. He would probably clean up pretty well. Good for him he hasn't succumbed to what everyone can...

    Major bank threatens account closure over unexplained home cash

    There is more to this story than we are seeing here. I have never had this happen with my bank. The only time I am ever asked this type of question is if I am withdrawing a large amount of money and my local Commonwealth Bank guy asks me if anyone has induced me to withdraw this money and if I...

    They should add the US to that list due to all the issues regarding their immigration staff we have been hearing about in the world press. Been there many times as have family there. Always found their immigration personnel rude and unhelpful. They seem to be flexing their muscles more with...

    This powerful natural painkiller is growing all around you in Australia—have you seen it?

    Not new - back home in Scotland many years ago when I was a child we used to rub "dock" leaves on any bites or stings. Had the same efficacious effect.
