You don't hear terms like that so much anymore... Australian means almost anything in terms of racial/cultural heritage. However we still have a soft spot for beating up on the British, especially with bats and balls....

I say thats just not cricket old chap

I dunno what... - I was told I was a bastard once & I replied, "That is what it says on my birth certificate, What is your excuse?" - - - took him quite a while to work it our - by then I was far enough to hear him swearing and cursing....

Does that count for ethnicity? else I have it on good authority he was from Portland, was Catholic, married and did a real con-job on my poor naive mum.... By the name of Robert Ballard, Married (wife in USA), & was in Townsville around mid August 1944... Would love to hear from him.... He would have to be more than 82 but likely guess would be 88?

If you were born in the US, you're a native American, right? I was born here, of Swedish and German ancestry, but I check the Native American box just to throw off their stats.

It's been great learning from you guys.

After being the strongest sperm of an ejaculation of 5 million or more, then managing to get an education and not get run over by a bus, it would appear that --"what tribe did you come from " is immaterial.

One of the biggest marketing failures in my lifetime was the inability of the "A&P" lobby to get grass legalized.

Always thought they would greet you at the door , give you a hit on a bong , and a shopping cart!

Figured it would tripple their bottom line.

Thanks Heinz, ILLUMINATING to say the least, Here is a page to set the "monkeys" jabbering....
- - - - - "Most Oil Pundits Scoff At Peak Oil Issue
Energy optimists loudly deny that Peak Oil is a serious risk.
CERA proclaims it is decades away and followed by a lengthy “undulating plateau.”
Optimists base thesis on:
– Recovering more oil now in place
– More undiscovered oil
– Increase in oilfield technology
– Increase in non-conventional oil
All are “faith based” beliefs
SIMMONS and COMPANY

So who is telling lies? & why is the price going up faster than a missile?

What are your separators for - separating the oil from other stuff?

Did you look at the presentation that Heinz posted? above at 159??? They are in the industry and supposedly analysed all the international data they could get....

Why is your country still in the middle east shooting itself in the foot?

All I want to know . . . . is who is up whom, and, who is paying the rent (apart from China & middle eastern country money paying huge amounts for US assets) & why is that stupid "W" trying to emulate "Mugabi" by printing money... Hasn't any one got the balls to tell him that that will stuff an economy FAST, - just look at Zim-land... Friends on a missionary visit there, needed a large garbage bag full of money, just to go out for a meal...

The World has gone mad... & am I the only sane one left?????

my separators take everything coming out of the wells,,and separates the oil/water/gas from the crap,and then counts each one,,,,,,,is basically a cross between a toilet and aseptic tank hehe
and its easy to figure out who's lying about how much there is,,,its the people making money from it,,,,,,,****,,,,every time Mas. comes over to buy a bag of weed i tell him,,,ooo man,,,there was 50lbs.,,,now i only got 5 lbs. left,,,,price just jumped

Thanks. That's some pretty sobering stuff. Now if you'll excuse me, I need to find some 70s issues of Mother Earth News on eBay.

the1,
I don't need your artificially grown grass, the stuff from above 10,000 ft (like tea) has more THC & better flavour... Like Bill C, never inhaled any good stuff so lost interest & sex was a better hit

It is a problem in PNG, so the locals say to stop it growing put it as a "priority crop" with the department of primary industries & it will fail as an economic crop ... Until then there is a thriving trade for Kalashnokovs, (bought in the middle east for less than US$80), and traded for US$1000 wholesale worth of dried heads, loaded onto a light aircraft & sold in Aus as "New Guinea Gold"
