Saying they will be increasing my 200gb data on my wifi device to 400gb and an extra $10 month charge. I don't have a major problem with that however, The emai...

We touched on the subject of Yellowstone in another thread a few days ago, Just happened on this interesting video highlighting the dangers in the park, a bit ghoulish but interesting nonetheless.

An interesting thought - I get ChinaVirus at work - do I have to take my sick leave or is the Company responsible thru Workers Comp insurance? What if I die - will there be a Coroners Inquiry - compensation for family, prosecution of the Company re unsafe workplace and so-on. Haven't heard much about t...

For a few days now I've been camped on a Donation camp. Flushing loos, solar showers both built by the local community. Also 5 or 6 picnic tables and a few fire pits. I looked in the Donation box when I arrived and could plainly see an envelope with a name and note on it. Checked again this morning, no donati...

2,000 YARD RICOCHET This guy is shooting a Barrett M82A1 50 calibre sniper rifle a Green Beret staple. Watch the dust when he fires. The target is a steel plate 1,000 yards away (0.57 miles or 10 football fields away.) You can hear the ping of the hit on the target and then listen carefully for the bull...

I had to drive into the Sydney CBD today to get some things from the office. I parked in Clarence Street and walked two and a half blocks to the corner of George and Kings Streets. In the fifteen minutes it took to leave the car and return to it, I saw less than 2 dozen people in the streets. Looking up and d...
