Umm... wow! That is indeed a take that calls everything else he says into question.
Now has one person who claims Jewish identity done something like that? Almost certainly, humans gonna human. But that says nothing about Jews as a class in any way.

The fireworks weren't bad but I had more fun stoking the steamship I was watching them from.

Note for Australian women especially of a larger size. Tradies do bamboo "long leg no chafe" boxers. A lot of boxers I tried didn't go below the natural curve of my thigh and tended to rise up and bunch up. They are closer fitting though so test to see if they give enough circulation for you.

Oh boy are you going to hate it if you have to move back down to the Great Australian Heat Island of Sydney. BOM says Campsie got down to 24 last night, I think the weather station at Canterbury racetrack might have but the rest of the place not so much.

Was he American? I have seen Americans saying plumber is middle class and while a boss of a plumbing firm might be in Oz the one with his hands in the sewer pipe is working class.

Off the top of my head: need for highways in the first place. Amount of money going on roads majorly used for private cars compared to money on public transport (with a side order of freight: how much, where, and why). Motor (oil, metal, pollution) vs active transport. Sprawl vs community.

and actually exist. My mother found a pair of trousers with zippered pockets. Except no... no pockets just non functional zips pretending to be pockets.

you would have to in Oz too. The medical stuff is covered more or less including some rehab but things like a decent wheelchair, house mods, and continuing care not so much.
Big incident like Bondi then Govt steps in, but everyone else has to cope. Some Govt things like NDIS but still not much.

Not just in the US. Parents attacking children who are umpiring is a problem in Oz too. At least they are mostly being banned from games. Problem is if they show up, who will remove them? Bit hard to tell the kid they can't play till their parent leaves.

Free parking is indeed a bad idea.
Has to be paid, and needs to be a lot more connecting buses. And a lot more bicycle infra. With secure bike parking of different price levels cos ebikes will be serious theft magnets.

Long time ago in Perth you could park in lots well away from the main areas and your parking ticket was also a bus ticket. Some were into the CBD some into other main areas.
What Tullawong et al need is decent bicycle infra and an aggressive rent-to-buy provider of ebikes.

I am not sure it's a useful commute route given the location. Most places are up from it and those are easier to get to other ways.
Also way to widen it so no real way to engineer it.

No. Which is OK as long as both are being sensible but unfortunately walkers tend to move away from each other as much as they can and away from edges. Meaning often taking up most of the path. Which is OK if they can hear and react to a bike bell but headphone wearing is also common.

I thought no one ever used it because people living East of Sydney would never be caught going to "Sydney's West" which starts at Ultimo if you live in Double Bay?

Problem with that is the the Oracle database software powers everything If you are any kind of biggish company your systems are using Oracle. Transport. Telco. Bank. Yeah there might be postgres, might be the odd IBM big iron and DB2 but your petrol and phone and bank account? Oracle.

19 on a technicality as AOL was not available in Oz. Not sure what the equivalent would be, possibly BigPond which was run by the main telco.
But I didn't have that either, used a local ISP. So still 19.

Makes your gun club a nice target with a big payoff. So you have to spend a lot of money to protect it only to have an insider let the bad guys in.
100 guns in 100 diff places mean one or two get nicked, 100 in one place...
(several reports of thefts from security companies for example, inside jobs)

Heard an interview with a man who had been a boy living near an American air force base during the war. He said a young lad could get quite an education if he wandered the woods in the evening after a dance at the base.

Wanna bet the gunman had his registered for hunting on some property that heaps and heaps of people are also registered on?
It is possible that there are checks for this but I don't know and don't see anything that says there are. So someone charges you $100/yr/gun for an address on paperwork.
