Obama assassination?

tahiti_rose @tahiti_rose (150) 30 Oct 08

There have been news reports here in Australia about the possibility of some nutter topping Obama! I think he and his family must be very courageous to go on under such a shadow. The U.S. has a history of knocking off their...

One of my favourite bands is AC/DC. An aussie band, of course. They have just released their new album in the U.S. called Black Ice. Have you heard it yet? What is your favourite band?

King Solomon's Mines

tahiti_rose @tahiti_rose (150) 30 Oct 08

Archaeologists working in Jordan think they may have found the site of the fabled mines of King Solomon. Remember he was supposed to be the richest king of his times, and many stories were written about where his wealth was...

Bali Bombers

The execution date has been set for the three known as the Bali Bombers. Their bombs killed several hundred people. They were targeting Western tourists but killed many Balinese as well. It is curious that although death as a...

Jackson 5

Have you heard that the Jackson 5 might be reuniting? It was on the news this morning. I used to love the young Michael fronting the band and had all their records. I just had a thought, if it's the Jackson 5 then Michael might be...

We used to celebrate Guy Fawkes Day in Australia, in November. I now live in QLD and haven't seen a Guy anywhere. There used to be a huge bonfire in the park with a Guy on top, and there used to be lots of fireworks. Now there is...

Do you recycle?

tahiti_rose @tahiti_rose (150) 27 Oct 08

Do you recycle your daily rubbish? Sort it out to go in the right bins? Or do you lump every thing in together? Do you donate your no longer used clothes and household items to charity? Or just chuck them in the bin? Do you go out...

weight loss

tahiti_rose @tahiti_rose (150) 27 Oct 08

OK Guys and Gals, it's time to get serious about this. I reckon a lot of mylotters have a little weight problem, while others have beaten the bulge. So, how about we share some real information here and help each other out.

diabetic retinopathy

tahiti_rose @tahiti_rose (150) 27 Oct 08

Almost four weeks ago I had a Diabetic bleed into the eye. As it was in the one I am able to read out of it left me pretty blind for a while. This is my second event, so I'm wondering if anyone else has had the same?

Naples

tahiti_rose @tahiti_rose (150) 1 Oct 08

My ship stopped in Naples as we were emigrating from England to Australia. This was in 1959, a long time ago. I remember going on a bus trip up Mt Vesuvius, and how poor the city looked. Has anyone been there since?

push-pull

tahiti_rose @tahiti_rose (150) 28 Sep 08

Is the door with the push sign on it a test for those who choose to pull? If so, meet a failure.

How are you?

tahiti_rose @tahiti_rose (150) 28 Sep 08

When people ask "How are you?", do they really want to know? Or is it just something to say to break the ice? Is this a particularly western thing or do people from all over the world say the same things?

Obama and McCain debate

tahiti_rose @tahiti_rose (150) 28 Sep 08

Watched the debate down here in Oz. Not impressed with either candidate. Both are warmongers, McCain being the worst. I was shocked at Bush jnr becoming President, but these two aren't much better. I know voting isn't compulsory...

tahiti_rose @tahiti_rose (150) 24 Sep 08

I have suffered from depression since well before I had a name for it, most definitely since pre-puberty. It made it difficult to connect with others particularly as a child. As a teenager I used illegal stimulants (self...

My family emigrated to Australia when I was 10. Ive often thought about coming back for a visit, but the stuff I see on TV, may be its changed too much. What do you reckon?
