What a great idea, lets rip the public off on it, then wait a few years until the share price halves, and then we can give it away to Macquarie bank like we do with our airports and roads.
Alright it might not strictly be insider trading but its close enough for me.

but whos making the money? certainly not the govt, definately not us. Damn Banks!!! Damn Government!!! I cant wait for the revolution! :D

the entire process of selling off of producers of public goods stinks! We owned them for a reason.

I have a different perspective.

Don't fucking sell our infrastructure, you fucking assholes. It's ours. It belongs to the people, not you, you fucking short sighted, theiving assholes.:)

So what Truijillo is there to do drive the share price down, send us further into the Broadband dark ages, and hope some investment bank buys it so that maybe in the next 5-10 years we will have caught up with the rest of the world.

Yeah, that's progress. Thank you eveyone involved. Top job. :(:mad:

yeah i do agree with ya. see below. Atleast truijillo is shsowing what a fucked up system it is. Telecommunications is heading for a 20yr court battle. Private business has never been a good supplier of public and merit goods. Thats the reason we owned that shit until Hawke started selling it off. Then Howard and the states finsihed it off so they vould bank roll the next election. Short sighted arseholes.

I want the mclaren by the way at least you could travel in comfort. But deep down I love the astons

Hey, does anyone know much about really old Malvern Star bikes? Seen one on a hard rubbish pile & wondered if it was worth grabbing.

Its covered in rust with grandpa handlebars etc s/s freewheel horizontal drop-outs & bolt on seat stays (not lugged) rims rusted etc. You can still see the malvern star markings under the rust.

First blowie of the season just flew through the back door. First mozzie a couple of nights ago. Bring on spring and summer

The Thread about Nothing....

I had the first mozzie of the season last night. Reminded me of all those sleepless nights with a buzzing in my ear. Hate 'em.

You know, I was just thinking about that Lawyer/car salesman cat fight. If everyone in Australia got sacked for not conforming to their companies 'internet acceptable use policy', there'd be no internet. :D

Or jobs.

Or Thylacine.

So we'd all be sitting there like drones watching A Current Affair.

And how would we get out pron?

It would be a tragedy!

Remember some time ago there was this storm in a teacup over in TAT? Seems that was nothing!

here the thread that caused all the ruckus

the cat loving moron talks about survival of the fittest. i believe that him loosing his job is as good demonstration of that as any.

I dont have anything against cats if they float your boat, but to suggest that they are all happy and the impact on the environment is negligable and the fault of native fauna is a joke.

In my day we just took stick books to school. Life as a paperboy was very profitable. Ribald and Bawdy were 'top-shelf' in the playground

The way I saw it was Willesse has to much time and money,and well he picked the wrong subject for credibility.

hehehe... Premium prices could be charged for magazine editions containing famous names too. :D
Having access to supply cigarettes for underage smokers also provided a healthly :rolleyes: boost to the income as well. :o :eek:

A reasonably good result for a couple of antipodeans in the Benelux tour. It's hard to beat Boonen though.

2 Julian Dean (NZl) Credit Agricole
