All good mate, though I better put 5 bucks in the VW just in case :thumbsup:


Love that VW of yours Elmer ... they're an awesome vehicle in so many ways.
I've chosen poorly in regards to fuel consumption with every vehicle I keep on the road ... a hyperactive V8 Ute and a 4.2 patrol. I'm considering getting a Morris Mini for something cool that's cheap to run.

I looked a the GMC Youkon... they look pretty nice..... I'll just bury a 50,000l petrol tank in the backyard.

When the Chinese attack I'll just put a gun mount and have fun

I was shocked at how bad Putin's health has gotten this year, the hand tremors and his right leg co-ordination point to either Parkinsons, a Stroke or a serious Neurological condition, this make him more dangerous.

I do hope behind the scenes Russians can quietly make the tough decision and poison the arse hole

Yeah Putin does not look healthy. You compare pictures from five years ago and it's a big difference.

Now who was that other bloke who wanted to rule the world and developed neurologic problems so he could barely stop his left hand trembling at the end? I believe he had a form of Parkinson's disease too. It didn't work out to well for him. Perhaps Czar Putin will succumb also? The main concern though is his mental state and how divorced from reality he is like other dictators before him and also present day 'Emperors' like the blokes in North Korea and China.

When it comes down to it, just like in the late 80s to mid 90s when we had a major generational change around the world, the same thing is happening right now. Boomers are getting old, sick and feeble and many are clinging to power. Sleepy Joe, Putin, Xi, all are in the same boat.

Most likely propaganda as I haven't tried to verify it.
But if it's true it's remarkable as we haven't seen an ace pilot in over 35 years, modern technology has made it a very rare thing. We just don't put enough aircraft into the skies nowadays.

Russian TV & news appears to have been hacked on "Victory Day".
Anti-war slogans were transmitted just prior to the red square parade.

In was in UAE, and now in another country and the media reporting on the Ukraine conflict is so much different here then Australia.

Anyway whatever happens, petrol is up, famine is coming. Russia has occupied mauripol, there is civil unrest (curfew declared with army taking power) in sirilanka

I reckon plenty of people thinking end of days or atleast ww3 is about to start

Can you actually pay something that got more then 1000 views.

It's just pathetic how bad a conspiracy theory is when it got only a few hundred views from a potential audience of 8 billion people. I mean if you extrapolate it to the Australian population that's 3 people views it. One was you and one was me after you posted that link

I have this feeling that the prospect of WW3 is somewhat remote as things stand at this juncture owing to the outstanding success of the US's 'Special Military Operation' in Ukraine.
Yes you read right and it's not a typo.
Consider carefully that the US has achieved, with the simple expenditure of a few Uke Banderites and some easily printed currency, the complete turnaround of the trend of Europe, Russia and China through inter-dependency coalescing into a Eurasian giant.
China on it's own as a growing potential hegemon will be difficult enough for the US to deal with but a cooperative, if not yet integrated, Eurasia would have presented a nightmare.

It’s not really intended as a conspiracy theory.
Tanks are not really living creatures that migrate upstream to die.
I suppose some people somewhere might take it as factual, or some alternative theory to invading army… :?

So may 9 came, no big war declaration by Russia. But media and womble told me otherwise

Inflation is up so finally interest rates are going up... by a lot.

Labor or liberals will win the next election.

Firearms laws will get stricter.


In short no ww3 just business as usual.

Well the end of days is near as forseen by many scriptures. As the three signs are

Pestilence.... covid19
War .... Russia/europe
Famine..... its started,

price of wheat has jumped record last couple of days, all blamed on Ukraine as it supplies 10% of the world. Just relax and enjoy the nuclear suba dubba in 20 years

Taiwan is on high alert and has called its officers back from leave.
The National Defense Ministry is said to have briefed its air defences that it should “prepare for war” in the coming days.
All because Nancy Pelosi may be visiting Taiwan during her Asian tour.

Iv never heard her band play before but they must be pretty bad if China are prepared to wage war if she steps foot on a neighbouring country.
Or perhaps they've got anti communism themes in their lyrics?

But seriously... what a bunch of freaks.

I don't get the hooblah.

I mean is the media saying that Taiwan think China will attack Taiwan while peloci is there, before or after?

Anyway i think Australia needs to send its army to help defend Taiwan, send them billions of dollars in militarily aid.


All the while our doctors are complaining that bulk billing rates as given by the health departments haven't risen in years.
