Bugger! The ICUKIMMIE Satellite gone, Mr Insider. “An expensive, highly classified U.S. spy satellite is presumed to be a total loss after it failed to reach orbit atop a Space Exploration Technologies Corp. rocket on Sunday, according to industry and government officials.”

“Kim Kah Park, heroic hacker to receive highest honour for bringing down sneaky American satellite. More to come, tell fat chauvinist capitalist running pig false hair President now we play with hard balls.”
Tandberg, sad news, one of the greats
Jean B – if, as you seem to be constantly suggesting, the planet and its inhabitants are doomed to extinction within a short span of time and there is nothing we can do about it, why the hell are you sitting around cutting and pasting stuff that you’ve found whilst trawling the internet for conspiracy theories etc? Sitting in your bedroom all day seems a poor substitute to getting out and appreciating nature and its inhabitants, human an others. Carpe diem, Jean.
Why? Because I really enjoy it, and it is the duty of any thinking person to try to make others aware that this glorious fortunate life is finite. You’re so cute Milton, after dunning those who understand these things so relentlessly, you are now regurgitating what they have been advising all along.
I don’t do “conspiracy theories”, only conspiracy facts, and if you care to challenge me on any one of them I will be happy to educate you. Same goes for anyone anywhere anytime.
Carpe annum.
PS. I’m up at five am and hit the pit at twelve, and it’s full on in between. What about you?
You do a 7hr day!!?? No wonder it’s full on as I fancy your ablutions would take up a good part of it.
Anywho, I think most living things that have reached consciousness are aware that life is finite. What some people should wonder “is there life before death” (graffiti)? But the main thing is you enjoy doing your duty. Good work, well done and keep it up.
That’s 12 midnight you goose. A veritable human dynamo.
Thanks for those encouraging words. Here is something from someone insanely optimistic.

Well the Liberals were always going on about ‘our grandchildren’ being doomed with debt. Never hear of it now and the deficit is 3 times worse…wonder why? The long term threat of global warming is much more serious than debt….tell the grandchildren!
Shouldn’t be long now for the next US election as there’s a lot of talk about Oprah running.
Theres a lot of talk period, and 99.99% of it is garbage.
Complete hysteria Milt.
This guy, pun intended, is an idiot. Other than the dept of Immigration the Feds have no part to play in this. How does he think they will be able to effect legislation as it relates to bail or mandatory sentencing?

Stunt.
Agreed but he’s a fool for pulling it.
yep
the real story is near the bottom of the article and indicates that the Vic government is getting it’s act together to address what is a real problem, no crisis to be sure, but a problem nonetheless.
“The Andrews government is midway through introducing and implementing comprehensive bail reforms drafted in the wake of the 2016 Bourke Street tragedy in which six people died, allegedly run down by a man on bail.
The first tranche of reforms, which imposes a presumption against bail for a suite of violent offences such as carjacking and violent home invasions, has passed parliament.
The second tranche, introduced last month, gives police more of a say in bail decisions and puts community safety as a bail justice’s first consideration in deciding whether someone gets bail.
Deputy Premier James Merlino is Acting Premier, and Police Minister Lisa Neville is filling in for Attorney-General Martin Pakula.”
One for you, JB.
Reading an obituary in The Age for Alan Roberts, 1925-2017, who is introduced as ‘theoretical physicist, Marxist and dog lover” (The latter at his insistence)
His obit is an interesting read.
He sort of reminded me of what you may be like? A tad eccentric but quite smart?.
In saying that, maybe I should add a disclaimer to that: – I hope I’m not inadvertently insulting Mr Roberts and flattering you – or vice versa!
The opening salvo of one of his essays against those who blamed over-population for ecological crises is great
”the breathtaking arrogance of this analysis deserves some admiration; it is no petty task its disciples undertook, trying to persuade their readers that the main thing wrong with the world is the existence of the readers themselves”………and it goes on
I don’t believe the world is overpopulated per se, the problem is that too much of the “thinking” gene has been eliminated , systematic murder, from the pool by the criminal (insofar as crimes against humanity) gangs of Kings Oligarchs and Priests.
Humans are born into captivity and are bred stupid enough to be led into extinction. Inevitable when you think about it.
Clear thinking will always be regarded as arrogance by the lickspittle commentariat.
Flog ’em
The weather today around the world is hot in some places and cold in others, wet in some and dry in others just like its been for the last millions of years.
An apology for unwarranted derision should be extended posthumously to the dodo.
JB,
A bit of reading to get your day started.

Matt Ridley! Hahahahahahahahah.
Honestly, you couldn’t make this stuff up. Well OK, he does but………….

I just didn’t think it worth replying to
I wonder what he would have written if he was in Sydney last week!
Yes, the planet should still be in a cooling cycle but it is getting hotter every year. No tiny bells tinkling yet?

Hamish Macdonald on RN breakfast at the moment.
He’s a very good presenter. Interviews without bias, overtalking or interrupting. Albanese yesterday, Abetz today. Both allowed to have their say but not allowed to get away with evasion.
Wish he was permanent.
The way it should be for all Pollies Boadicea, far too often they don’t even try to address the question, just parrot the party line. Cheers
Where is the outcry now that we know the coalition deliberately mislead the nation about the proposed changes to Negative gearing and Capital Gains Tax? It appears many are happy to be lied to by their government as long as it fits into their ideology. Disgraceful. No Surprises.
Modest downward pressure is still downward pressure and catastrophic for some.
Some
catastrophic for who?
Whom 🙂
wha?
Wham!
say it aint so
