    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    It's of some comfort to know I'm not the only one dealing with this nonsense!

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    So I went to pay a phone bill the other day. I was on the computer so I thought I'd just pay it from there. When I logged into my phone company account, I was told there had to be a 'two-step veriifcation process' to prove that it was me. I needed to go to the app on my phone and press an icon...

    The 80s, myth and reality?

    I got to see him live in 2012 and again in 2017. He'd slimmed down by 2017 and had a heap more energy onstage, but both gigs were brilliant and the sound was top notch. The second show he was supposed to perform all of the Kings of the Wild Frontier album, but after disappearing off stage for a...

    The 80s, myth and reality?

    What about afternoon reruns of the 1950s Superman with George Reeves? I'd get home from school, do my homework and dig the Man Of Steel.

    The 80s, myth and reality?

    I saw some of the new Looney Tunes cartoons a little while back. Terrible. Gimme the old ones any day. There was a Pink Panther cartoon I remember too. And Rocky and Bullwinkle. Along with all the Hanna-Barbera cartoons, those were the staple of my halcyon childhood.

    The 80s, myth and reality?

    Coolest story I've heard in a long time. The closest I ever got to being Adam Ant was wearing a stripe of white zinc cream across my nose when I did my bronze star swimming course in year seven at the beach! Solid Gold used to play here on Sunday afternoon, maybe 5 o'clock? "With the Solid Gold...

    The 80s, myth and reality?

    A great roster of artists. Real music made by real people with actual musical instruments. Rock. I was hanging out with a buddy of mine a couple of years back and some rap-electronic junk came on the radio and he sarcastically commented, "No musical instruments were harmed in the making of...

    The 80s, myth and reality?

    When I listen to the songs of that era, they're a soundtrack to the events of my teenage years and evoke strong and usually very welcome memories of fun and more innocent times. I started high school in 1981 and my attention was caught by the dramatic flair and persona of Adam and the Ants. Ant...

    Is it me or has it become harder to sell things on Classifieds or anywhere else?

    @Amy Jeanne this was the death of the Sydney Rockabilly scene that flourished in the 1980 and early 90s. Young kids who dug the style and wanted to get into it were snubbed and belittled by those established in the scene who thought they were some kind of vintage kingpins or something. As the...

    Explain the 3-Sphere to me.

    Well first off amigo: "Beware . . . anger, fear aggression. The dark side are they." lol All the major religions, bar Christianity, believe in some other, or higher, form of consciousness, be it reincarnation in Hindusim or enlightenment in Buddhism and so on. They also teach that one can only...

    Explain the 3-Sphere to me.

    Well @Monte.C to be fair, about the only people who don't like Americans are Russians and members of the Chinese Communist Party, and they're all party poopers anyway! Bonus if you guys come here, our dollar is worth about as much as Monopoly money so you get a lot of bargains for your buck. And...

    We need to have a barbecue where we can eat and philosophise about life and the universe. lol Tiki Tom hosts first, because I'm in love with Hawaii.

    Explain the 3-Sphere to me.

    Perhaps not so much that there's no such thing as good and evil, but is there an objective view of what is good and what is evil, that is, a view outside of ourselves - not 'subjective' morality? If there isn't, then who gets to decide what's wrong and what's right? Who is the arbiter of what is...
