In other news ....

I see the lineup for the 50th anniversary of Woodstock has been released. They have managed to resurrect some of the original artists (or parts thereof) including Santana, John Fogerty, John Sebastian, Melanie, David Crosby, Country Joe Mcdonald & Canned Heat. Some other well known current bands but mostly the rest of the bill are unknowns including a bevvy of rappers that would totally disrespect the memory of the original concert imho. Incidentally, Brian Cadd scored a gig. He would'nt have been out of place at the original concert.

Rappers?? At a Woodstock anniversary?? Bizarre.

Lardy will be mortified.

Not the only one. Grace Slick has not played for years, says rock and roll should be for young people. Still if she was playing, I'd put up with rappers and see if I could go.

Fart-bullying??

"A Melbourne engineer who claims a colleague repeatedly farted near him has vowed to go to the High Court after losing his bullying case on appeal.

David Hingst, 56, had sought $1.8 million in a suit against his former employer Construction Engineering in a bullying case that involved ex-colleague Greg Short.

The engineer claimed “flatulence was a form of bullying” and Mr Short was a serial farter.

But he earlier described the alleged bullying, saying Mr Short would come into his small, windowless office several times a day and break wind.

“He would fart behind me and walk away. He would do this five or six times a day,” he said outside court after the appeal hearing on Monday."

It's definitely a form of bullying.

Australia’s Sullivans Cove Distillery has been named the best single malt whisky at the prestigious World Whiskies Award.
It is the third time the boutique Tasmanian-based distillery has been judged a global winner, by the awards hosted by Whiskey Magazine.
The Cove’s 10-year-old cask French Oak expression, TD0217 took out the top spot in the Single Cask Single Malt category.
Sullivans Cove beat contenders from around the globe including Scotland, Japan, USA, Taiwan and other Australian distilleries.
In 2014, their 16-year-old cask of American Oak expression, won the World’s Best Single Malt.
The distillery won again in 2018 before receiving this year’s accolade.
A bottle of the Sullivans Cove American Oak Single Cask No. HH0351 set a record last year after it sold in London for $11,667.

So you've been "beaten down" by farting colleagues in the office???

Aren't you Melbourne engineer 💀

Sorry you're a Sydney engineer

I was. Mercifully I haven't seen the inside of a work office for 5 years.

Audible farting was always good for a guffaw. It was the coughing and sneezing that used to shit me.

Well not me personally but if you are someone that consistently goes out of your way to fart in a particular person's office and not hide the fact then that could quite clearly be seen as bullying.

I like how the offender was named and shamed. I expect his employment references will suggest he is on the nose.

You could at least hit the bastard with a carbon tax penalty. Maybe that's the solution to office farters. A government mandated fine. Course the miscreants would then start ripping off silent, sneaky sneaky ones. We all know that type of prick. Know he's got a heavy one brewing that will sit there like a sarin cloud slowly drifting up to olfactory level, giving the thunderqunt time to exit and everyone else enough time to turn the lunchroom into the OK Corral.

I'm surprised Fromberg has never added a farting emoji, given all the hot air that emanates from this place (yes, mostly from me).

Well we either petition or blame you.

You are to blame for both ...plus taking selfies of your backside during your time with the goats in Tac's mum's basement.

The image is a wonderful achievement showing what science and human endeavour can do. What sort of genius was Einstein?

There is a terrific article in the NYTimes today

I reckon they've taken a picture of a donut.

Banjo bumpkin.

I see Choc is being a dickhead - again.

Mundine’s initial tweet attracted 3500 replies and his Facebook post received more than 900 comments, with most of them strongly disagreeing with his stance."

After he was bombarded with "pull your head in, you arseclown" responses, he calmed down and tweeted...

Between him and Izzy Folau it's hard to work out who is the biggest idiot.

Mundine has cumulative head injury from boxing. Folau is just thick.

My bet is Izzy knowing the wallabies are doomed is looking for a cheap way to finish in league.

That would be my guess, Q.

Geez, have to say I'm surprised that justice was actually served with the conviction of ex-cop Mohammad Noor in the US. I was sure the jury would've said he was justified in shooting the Aussie chick.
