It's still an awesome show.

I had to take my mother to Centrelink this afternoon as she had to provide a document, went to the reception desk, guy there tapped something into a computer and told us to "sit over there" an hour later some Customer Service person finally sees her, sees the document, taps a few keys, says thank you goodbye and we were out the door. It took an hour just for something that took a few minutes.

But it was rather entertaining seeing a bogan rip into one of the CSO's and then storm out the the Centrelink building, saying "see you in court and slamming the door behind him, if he busted the door, he would almost certainly be sitting in court.

So, the office computer\server at work has fried its motherboard. Now everything has gone to hell in a handbasket. the POS terminals work but are a little slow and don't let us do things like recall previous orders, we have to clock in and out manually, all the registers have be done manually and so on.

The good news is Dell are sending a tech to replace the board.

I would like to meet the idiot who decided that it would be a good idea to use a standard business-class computer as both an office machine and a server and slap him\her for thinking that doing such a thing would be a good idea.

I posted a poll on Facebook to settle a little discussion, and then somebody else went and posted the same poll, so now there are two separate (and different) sets of results for one question...

Well I know who it is - it's one of my friends, it just annoyed me that they posted it, meaning I have to follow both my own and their polls to get the actual result... The poll was about which colour people preferred on the front of the Adelaide Metro CB80s, red or yellow...

How many times do you have to be told that global warming causes two climate change extremes?

Barrack Obama:
All across the world, in every kind of environment and region known to man, increasingly dangerous weather patterns and devastating storms are abruptly putting an end to the long-running debate over whether or not climate change is real. Not only is it real, it's here, and its effects are giving rise to a frighteningly new global phenomenon: the man-made natural disaster.

or
Our generation has inherited an incredibly beautiful world from our parents and they from their parents. It is in our hands whether our children and their children inherit the same world.

That's what I meant, Celsius.

We can't understand how you can have "two extremes" of so called global warming. The phrase "global warming" means warming of the earth, but the world has gotten cooler, just look at the last year for example.

SBS, the Special Biased Service, just like the Australian Biased Corporation, slanting the story to suit. But then again, Alan Jones, and other hosts, especially MTR (if it's still on air), they also slant stories to suit themselves.

Full buses, the year 7 kids that try and catch them and the bus company. Just because you haven't got your pass and that bus goes to some of the same stops doesn't mean you should catch it, you have stopped kids that belong on that bus because their stop doesn't fall on another route being on there meaning my bus has to do extra stops. Ignorant little $#!Ts, the other bus comes 5 minutes later and if you guys didn't try and catch the full one, you'd actually get home earlier because we wouldn't have to do 2 routes.
Explain your reasoning for putting the slowest, worst bus on the longest route. Surely it'd be more efficient to have a newer one. Where's my 8 speed M.A.N?

It's called 'climate change' now, this covers both ends of their failed lie.

Yes, I would love to see the world remain as it is now forever. But sending Australia broke is a waste of time. It would seem the carbon dioxide tax has reversed global warming already!

Can you not see through the bullshit and look at the real issue, the $200b debt! Whether we like it or not, we have to pay back KRudds' spending spree, and putting a nice name like climate tax will make some people feel good.

And add to that, due to the ever increasing power prices, mainly due to the carbon tax Lie (I mean Lie), and inaction from the federal government, some surgeries that bulk-billed, have stopped bulk-billing to most patients.

WTF how can a tax that has not even started yet effect anything? What is wrong with you, and just because she "lied" about introducing it does not make a LEGAL tax a lie, BOO effing HOO its happening get the f over it go have a cry else where and take your nonsense with you.

And DAZ if it wasnt for the "spending spree" Australia would not be in the position it is in now - look at our national figues and you tell me how we could of got there with out the "spending spree"

Laptop, and this is for any government from ANY side, when a politician makes a promise, it should be taken as a contract, but we all know what happens.
And no it is not a legal tax. Just because you don't agree doesn't make it nonsense

At the end of the day The Australian Government will tax everyone no matter who is in and Julia Gillard did not lie she changed her mind like everyone does and I say good on her. Yes I dont like her but at the same time I dont like Tony Abbott and I think none of them should be Prime Minister as they are not fully Australian but more importantly god help us all if Newcastle Flyer was Prime Minister.
