Them's just the Google ads, they're sneaky.
Oz, I had a mate like that, always worried about everything giving orf noxious gasses... then he goes and buys a water bed which when he heated it up, gave orf heaps more so he wouldn't go near it... farken knut!

^ ....and don't get me started on electric blankets!! Talk about EMFs! :p Might as well sleep in a microwave (although they don't give off the same crap).

hmmm....what else? Oh yeah, don't have the head of your bed over a powerpoint. Sleep at LEAST arms length away from digital clocks...

Fragrances and perfumes may be carncinogec or otherwise toxic

It sounds like all too much to begin with, but it ain't that hard. :D

Jeez Ozman, maybe you should put that colander back on your head to block out the harmful rays. ;)

On the subject of microwaves, you need to make sure the inside of the door is always clean otherwise the shielding effect of the mesh in the glass is negated. Heard that one from Dr Karl.

Let's see, I don't own a microwave, don't own an electric blanket, don't use anti-perspirant (why interfere with the operation of a perfectly good sweat gland?), avoid using pesticides and eat very little processed food. On the other hand, I wear perfume every day and slather myself in moisturiser - now I just need to make sure I've achieved a neutral balance. :p

As for the pesky Google ads ...... AdBlocker is your friend boys. :D

I sometimes use vegetable oil! :)

It takes about 2 drops to do my whole legs! :p

Pissa! :) If i may state the obvious: you should've got them to throw her against the car, cuff her and slam her head into the door frame as they threw her into the back seat.....and had her shouting "Allah akbar" at the same time

We did discuss that, but decided against it. By the way, in keeping with the tradition of giving our dogs names and nicknames of notable Australians, (we have a Chopper already) I've given our puppy the dignified title of Ernie Dingo.

It has finally stopped raining and I think it was 28 or so yesterday.

yeah.

If only I had chrissy holidays it would be perfect.

then there's good old 'safe, claen and healthy' soap. :) Google the potential deleterious effects of titanium-dioxide and sodium laurel sulphate :p

It was about 40 degrees here today, and I did a 17.6 km TT.

Averaged 40.6 km/h over the course - I love summer :D

Das had some issues to resolve, not the least of which was a major superiority complex. Still, he was fun while he lasted :p

BHBiker 12-30-07 05:14 AM

Hey come on DasProfessional.....make this thread alive again!!!

Well, looks like OzMan won't be going anywhere today, Melbourne's temperature is forecast to be 42C (107F). We're a little luckier in NSW, Sydney is forecast to be a relatively temperate 30C (86F)

531Aussie 12-30-07 07:54 PM

^ eh, I might roll around and sweat for an hour just so I can feel skinny after, and to avoid the risk of 'dead' legs tomorrow.

Odin 12-30-07 08:21 PM

Easy. Minoora + air-con = :)

classic1 12-30-07 08:54 PM

I've been out. Was a bit lucky as there was cloud, which burnt off by 9am. Back before 10.30am, just as it was getting hot. Then I mowed the lawns. That sucked.

Brian 12-30-07 10:52 PM

I know you're all out getting pissed, but here's to another great year. :beer:

I can barely stand the farkin minoora in winter when I have it outside and its only 5 degrees. Even with aircon I wouldn't go anywhere near it in summer. Rather head up into the hills where it's 5-10 degrees cooler.

I live up in the hills where it's 5-10 degrees cooler.
