John, what we now need is a Godwinian statute to prevent you from promoting your dotty conspiracy theory about how Big Tobacco is driving climate change scepticism or anti-DDT agitprop – I forget which. Rothmans Law, say?

John as the Malboro man takes on an entirely new meaning.

but Tim Flannerys suggestion about changing the colour of the sky is worthy of Leni Riefenstahl on LSD.

Nothing said about the entire world smelling like a fart.

Indistinguishable from Gummo Trotsky.

Gilmae: did you ever actually play football? Respectfully wondering because I’ve noticed in life that NRL minutiae tragics are often blokes who were sidelined mites with a ventolin puffer in one hand and a pack of club cards in the other in their younger days.

(Heard about it on the car radio this morning so if I’m wrong, blame my concentration)

Slightly OT but related to the Roar video – in the last week of the election campaign the ALP ran full coiour ads in the Courier Mail sports pages of K. Rudd standing in a field with the Glasshouse Mountains in the background with “Queenslander!” in huge print at the top of the page.

And people wonder why the swing was so big up here!

I’ve always wondered what it was Gary Larson drank to do that to his voice.

and if you read the other post match reports its clear this was a side issue and Smith wasn’t blaming it for the loss.

But Smith would not use refereeing decisions, senior players returning from injury, the absence of Danny Buderus, Ben Cross and Kurt Gidley, or any hangover from last Monday’s draining away loss to Melbourne as excuses.

“If you want to play in big games and you want to be a big club, then you play in big games most weekends.

PS.
Go Knights!! ktxby

the Marxist-Leninist analysis of underdevelopment is tantamount to the rape of objective reality with political, theoretical, highly artificial constructs

And look, the point is that Origin is part of the landscape, and has been for 28 years now. The fans and players love it, and it’s not going anywhere. I s’pose Smith is entitled to vent about it but the only thing he can really change is his own roster.
