One suspects they'll have her pumped up with 40mg of speed and loose the pitbull.

Much as I admire the actions of Austin Hemmings I doubt very much that he expected a knife attack, that sort of thing is not that common in church circles. So being stabbed would have, probably, been the last thing on his mind.

It's actually SQRT(k.m/S) where k is a factor of g, air density, Cd, etc.
You, sir, are, in my correct opinion, a charlatan. I challenge you to a plummet.
As long as I can have a parachute of which has an area not less than the square of my mass (in metres per kilogram) and yours is no more than the square root of your own, renowned, mass.

M/S squared=tV where Tv is terminal velocity in metres per second ;-)

for the record i heard they contain less mercury than a tube of toothpaste. and certainly less than a amalgam filling.
Betcha didn't hear that on 1ZB or 3 News or in te Herold (sic) or te Listener or maybe you did but it was vewy vewy quiet.

Ahh, Leighton Smith listeners:
I had occasion to overhear a conversation at Bunnings yesterday;
"Oh look, they've got those horrid twirly bulbs" she said pointing at a display of energy saving fluorescent lights
"Oh, I don't like them, they make your eyes go blind"
apparently there are other parts of the anatomy of the human body that can go blind
'I'm not having them in my house" she told her apparent husband. As he surveyed the roof space above him hoping for some divine intervention he mumbled "yes dear"
"They're full of mercury you know and when you break them you have to take them to a special dump" she said, proud of her empirical knowledge.
"That's not right dear" the husband ventured.
"What do you know? you never listen to Leighton Smith, you never listen to the radio"
"No dear, I don't"
Ahh. Thank you Bunnings, you helped me see the light. -
You must have thought I was a total idiot :-)
Not at all Graeme, Twas my brain that were fuddled by this new fangled daylight saving thingy, I still don't know whether i'm early or late.
Anyroad, It seems that financiers fall at the same rate as their portfolios, most New Zealanders wish to resume the right to smack polititions and the money changers are still hanging around in the temple. Enough I say, enough! When will they be smacked by the invisible hand that feeds them?
November 8th? ;-) -
Oh, right, things that AREN'T true.
How about;
"The free market will regulate itself"
Yeah, right. The invisible hand slips on a latex glove and .............."Socialism has never worked"
because it doesn't fit in with
"greed is good"
and we have the power to ensure it doesn't work.And the corker,
"Winston broke the law"
Plus
"John Key didn't break the law" -
1. Heavy objects and light objects fall at the same rate in a vacuum.
It helps to complete sentences sometimes ;-)2. Labour won the last election because of a fantastic get-out-the-vote drive in South Auckland and the fact that people suddenly remembered what National was like.
3. No two democracies have ever warred with each other according to people who want you to believe that.
And hey, you forgot Britain and the U.S of A, they have warred with each other many times, admittedly on the same side but....
I have always been astounded by the pride some people have in their own ignorance.
if someone can up up a blue one, I'll be a happy man
Is this blue enough?
"Cunts are still running the world" Jarvis Cocker. -
Ah yes, that Hitler chap.
In addition, his regular methamphetamine use and possible sleep deprivation in the last, highly stressful period of his life must be factored into any speculation as to the cause of his possible psychotic symptoms as these two activities are known to trigger psychotic reactions in some individuals.
