Atheist. I will instablock trolls with no interaction. In this space, no one will hear your shite. Firmly left wing, and I enjoy robust but polite political discussion. Science and science fiction are a passion, as is music. Any leads appreciated.

Optus cruised for years with a rather large financial boon from not having any involvement in 000 other than switching their users' calls directly to Telstra. They provided no service other than that.

000 started in 1961 under the PMG as a fully government owned service. When Telecom was split off in 1975 and eventually privatised by Howard, it was solely responsible under a Community Service Obligation. Optus et. al. avoided the CSO for years, and it appears dont really care much about it.

I have a new found respect for people who wear nail polish. Why? It's a total pain. #PolishedMan

Quote with your favourite #StarTrek Intro Theme!

For me, it's the Voyager theme.

Wait! Let me explain.

I just like it, that's why.

The look on poor old Derek's face when his creepy old man move was slapped down in the politest way possible. And I almost thought the curse had been broken. The finale was most definitely a theatrical one. So much of David Gilmour and Roger Waters in the characterisations.

Trying to make sure I don't spoil it for others. I'm glad I managed to avoid all but the biggest of them. A slow first 20 minutes, but then moved closer to 11 as it went along. Enough LOL moments to make it worth the price of admission. Lots of call-backs to the first movie.

Going to see it tonight. I'm hoping for the best, but ... sequels.

He's deluded when sober. I don't know what words to use for when he's pissed. I guess the same words one would use for Trump in any condition.

Donald #Trump's new high tech, space age #MedBed has arrived. It will only take 3 years of full time sleepy bobo time and he'll be all fixed up.

It's not a spoiler as it's been announced that Montgomery Scott will replace Pelia as the ship's Chief Engineer. I'm a little disappointed that we won't find out more about her time with the time travelling ... Doctor.

Do what was it that ruined his "business edge"? An edge as sharp as a billiard ball.

Not nearly as much as Dipper. He copped it sweet when it came back. And it did a lot. Dermie, not so much. Or Lethal for that matter. I admired Dipper for that.

He's the greatest tosser in the #AFL since the greatest strutting peacock ever, Dermott Brereton. And he might end up worse.

I was looking for that meme. Curses, like the Cats. Second again.

Don't anyone ever tell me (looking at a certain AFL commentator) that free kicks don't matter in a game. Since the frees have been more even, Geelong have lost their way. And it's still running 21-14 in favour of the Cats. It's only evened up since 1/4 time.

If BT didn't scream the blindingly obvious, do you think he'd ever have anything to say?

I love it when celebrities take time to chat with kids, and especially when they go out of their way to make the day of kids. It's way better when it's done with no media there, Snoop Dogg, Ozzy, Paul McCartney and others. It warms the heart of this old cynic.
