RE: Rishi Sunak.. British politician....

... and is Rishi Sunak either revered or respected in England? I think not, nor is his opponent who likens herself to and emulates Margaret Thatcher it would appear. As with American elections, a bitter and futile choice. Who will be the best of a bad lot then?

RE: What's Your Favorite Music Video?

that one doesn't play here - another might:

different video, same recording

RE: What's Your Favorite Music Video?

Oh and one more - Chinese pop song from a BJ TV Series; simple song! The name (dida dida) of course means 'tick-tock'

The performer's name is Kan Kan - a name which just means assured, open, fervent

RE: What's Your Favorite Music Video?

The Last Waltz - the whole movie 1978 - Scorsese
Here's just one track

I see Robbie Robertson is still composing and working with Scorsese in a 2019 and an upcoming movie.

RE: Rudy's stents...

there is news about the stents, but no connection with the 'assault'

RE: Chop Chop... Roti

@Rizla don't forget the quaint custom of spitting the bones on the floor!

RE: Yep, never seen this exorbitant price of fuel during Trump's time

@riz electric car? Nah! the queue for the rare earth metals used in EV batteries is years long!

RE: Yep, never seen this exorbitant price of fuel during Trump's time

@op and you attribute that to the administration? That is absurd. America has never determined the oil price, wittingly or otherwise. Silly idea, don't you agree. America might be marginally the largest exporter, but they are also the largest consumer, by 50% over a country 3350% larger? Does that too reflect on the Administration? Oil price is not a result of which president is in power. When you cut off a major oil producer and exporter like russian, what would you predict as the outcome? This is Biden? Come off it!

RE: The price of gas has dropped sharply. SOME PLACES HAVE DROPPED MORE THAN A DOLLAR A GALLON...

@chancer do you see the US administration as responsible for the price of petrol then? And specifically Biden? Remember when Russia and Saudi took the barrel price down to $40 or less (briefly -40!)? So that was some genius move of the then US President or UK PM was it - come off it, guffaw guffaw.

just below AUD$2 per litre here. Aren't the Americans peculiar refusing the metric change!? 3.8 litres roundabout per gallon. I'll stick to the bicycle and Shank's pony.

RE: Touched a nerve...

Not a one! And certainly not the sciatic nerve. Maybe a bit of Nancy Sinatra boots on the lumbar would do the trick

RE: Touched a nerve...

@OP what's up? Got a dose of blogging bug today? First six blog threads all feature @chat

RE: STEVE BANNON ON FIRE! Video Recaps from Days 1 and 2 of Political Show Trial

@OP reminds one of a famous quote from T S Eliot's aptly named 'The Hollow Men' or should that be 'The Hollering Men'?
This is the way the world ends (repeat X 3) not with a bang but a whimper'

RE: Sciatica...

My sciatica spread all the way down to my foot, left foot. They told me the further down it goes, the worse it is. Just hope it stays in the butt'ock as Forest Gump might have said.

RE: Sciatica...

try a physio - they can tailor the exercise to suit your flavour of problem. Mine helped me find a prone position that was not too excruciating.

RE: Sciatica...

Sciatica can be dreadful! 30 odd years ago. Rising from bed, getting up from a chair, brushing the teeth. I solved it with physio and 30 or so half-body pushups from the waist every waking hour for a few weeks. There were times I felt like I was walking on a broken leg. Sometimes the arm muscles were just as sore.

RE: Aotearoa

I heard stories of the moriori preceding the maoris and being more or less exterminated by them, but these have been somewhat discredited by modern archarologists and historians who assert there was no pre-existing species when they arrived. People cleave to their beliefs even in the face of evidence to the contrary, so what else can I say. For some reason the moriori have been assigned to the Chathams.

RE: Marxist Ideologues Exploit Climate Change Cult To Destroy Societies & Kill People -

Idiot! Marxists? Sri Lankans have no petrol, unsurprising they impose law over access. You subscribe to Bolt and Sky News? That nitwit? It figures! So if you use "Marxists" should I not label you "McCarthyist"?

RE: Ancient hairdresser theory

So did your ancient hairdresser happen to bring Bertrand Russell's Barber Paradox with him?

Ah, and coincidentally I see Fargo had an episode called 'Who Shaves the Barber' I must have seen it but have no recollection.

RE: The treatment has begun.

Dizziness is not usually indicated by acidity, rather by inner ear and brain - just think about sea-sickness; nausea similarly. Did the doctor not suggest a brain scan?

RE: Reuters: "US Oil Reserves Sent Overseas (ChiComs!*) As Gasoline Prices Stay High"

And what is the big deal here anyway - China still has a $350+ bn trade surplus with US and btw ...
under a Trump trade agreement. I don't recall any Trump sells oil to ChiCom blogs back then in 2020, or did I miss something?

RE: Reuters: "US Oil Reserves Sent Overseas (ChiComs!*) As Gasoline Prices Stay High"

@epirb The OP claims Reuters said it, Reuters DID NOT. It was a deliberate distortion. Reuters article mentions an unnamed source who make such a claim about a third shipment. They certainly did not use a term like ChiCom The confirmed sailings were to Europe. Europe was not mentioned in the OPs posting was it?

RE: Reuters: "US Oil Reserves Sent Overseas (ChiComs!*) As Gasoline Prices Stay High"

Typical lying distortion - Reuters did not mention China and certainly didn't use your blatant lie. You inserted your own crude words.

RE: Are We Ready For a Woman Leader?

Golda Meir, Jacinta Adern, Julia Gillard

RE: Why the Jan. 6 hearing is a sham

@conrad I do not expect the likes of you to grow common sense, as I say I don't give a fig about your kind. However the attempts to deflect and influence the thinking of those who can but who might yet believe such misinformation as the OP writes here, such attempts need be countered. The findings of the committee are considered and fact based. They deserve to be heard and considered. It is serious stuff, and calling it a sham merely magnifies the shame. Dersowitz = Lack of wits. Irrelevance.

RE: Why the Jan. 6 hearing is a sham

PBS Newshour is broadcast live here on SBS - I am not spreading anything, merely reporting back what I have seen and heard from live sessions.

I look forward to the Dominion suit against Powell and Giuliani - a comeuppance to rub ones hands about - bankruptcy awaits, they can join Trump in that exclusive club (Chapter 11 six times) but perhaps under Chapters 7/13.

RE: Why the Jan. 6 hearing is a sham

@OP These lies have been firmly established - the lies that 45th started spreading months in advance about election fraud. Lies the world knew then and knows now, lies that the cringing Republicans reject in public but know in fact. These are indeed the lies plainly revealed. Even his daughter confessed as much, didn't she! This is not to call yourself a liar, merely a pawn and dupe. Poor America! There's one born every minute, but going on 100 million living breathing examples is rather too much. The select committee puts this firmly in public view, a fraud and shame never to be lived down.

RE: Why the Jan. 6 hearing is a sham

@op I didn't call you a liar, these were your words addressed to me, and you simply echo my own words of rebuttal. I consider you shallow and unthinking and easily duped, but I have never called you a liar. You called me such in this thread. A sensible person would retrct or shutup. In all probability you are not and you won't. I don't give a fig.

RE: Why the Jan. 6 hearing is a sham

@op Conservative hating? Scarcely, but somewhat contemptuous of one-eyed jacks who express mindless stereotypes as you appear to. Liar? Where where? Expressing a counter view constitutes a lie to your way of thinking - well that figures, and says much about your thought processes, don't you agree? I do think, believe you have not considered the issues published with any depth, and are corralled by your biases - no lie, I assure you!

RE: Hey Clarence...

@op doesn't CT have a 'white' partner? Miscegenation is an unlikely chat topic in that household I suspect.
