La La La La (fingers in ears and hands over eyes) I don't want to hear those letters again for at least 6 weeks Adrian. Hey I should introduce you to our TAFE's new 3 Files system. You think you've got stress now.  someone should shoot innovative bureaucrats that think they know about education ....
Sorry off topic and a bit of a tender spot 
btw I had two students try to submit work .... this morning!!! 4 pieces from one student just after 11:30. yeah right

Hey 1Ponders we are being introduced to the 3 file system at our "luv in" in January. Supposed to be migrating to it during 2011. Got called back to work this afternoon some students were enrolled in error so had to put in the drop forms for 12.
Righto no more work talk.

That's my wet dream. 500 bucks worth of free KFC, holy crap I'd die from pleasure overload. No joke. I would literally go into pleasure-induced meltdown from the staggering reality of being eligible for 500 bucks worth of KFC.

Sorry Sab, I just received a pair of binoculars and have some CatsEye stuff and eyepieces incoming. I'm afraid that the weather in Melbourne will continue to be cloudy/raining for a little while longer...

I have a confession to make. Yesterday, admittedly I was out and about, with intent to purchase.
As it happened, I found myself driving home, under a thick drizzly blacket of cloud, with an 8" scope riding in the back.

The plan is to sell the 5" and 10" , and be left with the 12" , 8" and 120st and 4.5" newt. That way I've got all possible grounds covered

Sam, ask him for the Pentax XW10!!! You will be gobsmacked at the sharp contrast and detail on Jupiter like you've never seen before! And when the seeing isn't so good, I've watched this ep do battle and perform where all others fail (and at high mag at 10 at that)l. I can't speak for the Explore Scientific (not ever tried it) but I hear they are very very heavy.

I get KFC chicken from the super butcher - zinger version
It's not hard to duplicate the batter so I can have $500 worth of KFC for 25 dollars and no fat.
Too easy
I've also bought 400 McBurger Patties for $60 - which means all my fast food is prepared withut recourse to cholesterol pumps and I can feed a family of 2 for $2.50 because I buy chips for $5 for 7.5 kilo. The main cost is for decent veggies
