^ Sung to the tune of 'Losing my Religion' by REM. Well Chris, as previously purported, with Nikon releasing the Z6 and Z7 Mark II camera bodies there are a few bargains to be had from folks doing the 2nd gen upgrade. So I picked up a used …

Apart from that - most of my family were asshats.

Nostalgia ain't what it used to be.

Or just plain sillier.

Yea - No good for NZ - Perfect for Brisbane to Gladstone where he works.

Never dull moment working for a bike mag. Casey's Softail at 'Livin' Loco Garage' on the Gold Coast - and environs. I took the action shots from the back seat of the Buick. It was fabulous. This is poster material I …

There was this time at Band Camp when ... oh ... not that kind of story. But not really - since the days of 14.4 modems and dial up I do prefer to work at night and get up late. Nocturnal r us. Sleep's never an issue tho .... zzzzzzzzzzz

Not even Harley expected to sell many Live Wires. It has performed other purposes. Re-branding / brand perception, infrastructure set up and like. And it got them global press on an unprecedented scale.

No, not really. :-P To paraphrase the wise Arthur Fonzarelli: I don't shoot nothin' you don't fill up with gasoline.

They had been seeking compromise for quite some time - unsuccessfully. That Rupert seems to be the main beneficiary is unfortunate - other smaller organisations will benefit though.

The Duckduck isn't as good as Google either. Not nearly as comprehensive.

It would be slightly ironic - or even hypocritical to share this link if I didn't already pay for a Brisbane Times …

So Google successfully negotiated a deal with major news outlets. Facebook simply blocked them. Including Facebook pages with content from the owner's magazine or organisation. Most disliked person in the country is now Zuckerberg by a …

I submitted the test on the bike I affectionately dubbed 'Herman the German' to HEAVY DUTY Magazine today. It included several pics of pal Spook on-board as well as his (well written) 'Second Opinion' piece on riding it for the shoot. It all came …

A Grevillia from my front yard where Summer has been cooler than normal so far.

> Could you do a flag version of rugby? Like NFL it's more than a contact sport - it's a 'collision' sport. Contact with head is strictly against the rules, but the nature of the games makes some impacts to the melon inevitable - most likely from …

good point - more about getting away from ‘reliance’ on google than being happy for Rupert though.

Interesting developments here in Aus. https://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/politics/federal/world-first-media-code-could-be-legislated-within-weeks-20210211-p571le.html Personally - after Google threatened to pull their search facility in Aus over …
