The govt's surplus is used to pay off public debt from previous governments. I did an essay on this stuff in first year. If you look on the Treasury web site, per captia, SA and WA get more federal money than QLD does.

It's not hard at all, I just thought it should be either Howie who does it or with his approval, since it's his site and all.

Would it be possible to have something in the forum headers letting us know when we have unread PM's? I just realised I've had some sitting there for two weeks.

Cheers.

Anyone up for a Sensational-Adelaide IRC channel? OzScrapers with Yob and AG was 'interesting.' Kinda sucks these days. Bring back the days of old, I say!

Server?

Push the Tonsley line the extra distance into Flinders, it'd be better than any freeway.

The RAA make money from people driving their cars, so naturally they’d advocate more money being spent on roads.

They took King William Rd just in front of the cathederal and poorly photoshoped rails and a tram (which look nothing like the Adelaide Metro ones) and just published it. Didn't even add overhead wires. There's lots of Bullshi...

That's damn awsome. Congrats, Howie!

Forgotten the name of it - the back of the car park on North Terrace, behind Alpha Apartments. Taken Friday night.

What's the traffic like for the front page? Just out of curiosity.

Has anyone else noticed all the outdoor tables and chairs on the Eastern end of Rundle Mall are gone. The giant umbrellas look odd with nothing under them. Bit of a shame, really. Granted, McDonalds and KFC customers probably left the place trashed, but it was nice to have a coffee in the middle of ...

Man sues over glue loo prank A man who had a panic attack when he found he was glued to a toilet seat in a restroom in Colorado in the US has sued the store for negligence, saying staff ignored his plight. Retired electrical engineer 57-year-old Bob Dougherty says he was stuck in the stall with his ...

Hold that thought Howie - I had one made up for SSC, however, I seem to have lost it. Hopfully it's on a CD somewhere at my Parent's place.

Gives me an excuse to make another one and further procrastinate from study.

They don't really need to touch the Masions building. There's plenty of room behind it. It could sit very well just behind and to the east of 223NT. Destroying it for a a Myer Centre style false facade IMO would be a shame. It's a fantastic building which adds some much needed colour and interest to...
