the NAB cup is aussie rules football. It's for those people who can't go without football during the cricket season. I think they play some night matches in s much shortened competition to culminate just b4 the start of the actual afl season. And obviously sponsored by the NAB bank. "Nab" your money.... great acronym for a bank.
Welcome to the forums, Happyman. I think they would, for sure, I know I would be. Mind you I think we would all be interested as well if we saw pigs flying!
Hi Jem, thanks for sharing this with us. A tough time you went through. I agree suicide isn't an easy way out as it must take a huge amount of courage to do.
Someone I love once tried to commit suicide; fortunately didn,t succeed, but the aftermath and pain is still with me.
Yep, guilty as charged. Sorry Curly, I guess i'm one the main instigators. To be honest I'm sick of it too and have been trying to think of somthing else. So far nada! Got any ideas?
In my opinion, Halvo's response is the best so far. Infinity "exists" as a mathematical construct, to explain or rationalise certain problems. Like 1/0. Most of your respondents are talking about infinite TIME. In mathematics the emphasis is on infinite numbers, ie a number increasing without bound.
Halvo, I have to admit I'm one of those atheists who does like to have a bit of a go occasionally. I wrote a long "rant" on one the Preacher's blogs this afternoon. (Serendipity615) Christians have also been known to make plenty of noise about their faith and how great it is, especially in past centuries. They rationalise this by saying "Hey we're so happy and we really want YOU to have some of that too!" They also did it because the Bible told them to do it. In time they noticed they had not really achieved much with all their missionary work, so they scaled it back a bit. Sometimes I feel like the big brother who tells little brother that Santa Claus isn't real, but little brother just won't listen. Maybe it's a bit cruel.
Ok, I've let this joke sink in for 5 hours and I still don't get it! I thought it mi9ght come to me but it didn't. You'll have to explain it for me Prowler......
Yep, it depends what you're into NL. This is a good site to look at as you can put in the date you want and it gives you a list as well as links, opening hours, etc. There's a few comedy shows but most seem to be Saturday night.
Micky, I think you're being a bit oversensitive. I read it again and don't see it as an attack so much. Conduit was maybe just wondering how you could possibly have "no flippin idea". Me, I don't have any flippin' idea either, but others do and uh... well I forget the rest.
I met (Australian Jazz singer) Kate Ce berano many years ago when I dabbled in sc. ient. ology for a few months. As you probably know, she is one, and at that time she was just a kid, well, maybe 16 or so. She was doing a sort of post-audit clearing or whatever they may have called it. So, yeah, she practiced some of her voodoo magic on me.
True, but hey so many things don't make any sense about religions, but the religious have a convenient explanation for anything you can come up with. So let us eat, drink and be merry,
Yes, been thinking for a while Serene. There were one or two thoughts but they got away. You do see that sometimes when people survive horrors it gives them a sense of purpose afterwards. I've questioned why things happen and looked for meaning in human existence, but have not been able to find any. Wish I could help you darl, as I can guess what you're going through.
