"The kegel club has been a very important tradition in Tanunda for approx. 150 years, and is recognised by the National Trust as being a 'historical' landmark. Tradition changed at the Kegel club in 1973, when the Tanunda Ladies' Kegel Club was formed. The original German men that played considered it improper that Women should be allowed to play. With the changes in the beliefs in society, women were finally allowed to play."

Wikipedia: Edward Lear (12 May 1812 – 29 January 1888) was an English artist, illustrator and writer known for his literary nonsense, in poetry and prose, and especially his limericks, a form which he popularised. Edward Lear's nonsense works are distinguished by a facility of verbal invention and a poet's delight in the sounds of words, both real and imaginary.

Al -I have concepted a spoon that doesnt drip when exiting your mouth when eating cereal. Also it is ergonomically designed with TPE non-slip/turn grip handle, a 4 degree turn for righty and 4 degree right for lefties with a parabol that is less than a normal spoon as the periphery of a regular spoon parabol hangs instantaneously upon extraction when exiting the human mouth. A far more advanced spoon than the average everyday wear. 8)

MAN! I have been thinking of ways to improve this widget concept that I did back some time ago. I have been thinking about it for probably 6 months with alot of lost sleep. I finally got the fix out of the back of my head. I knew it was in there and just have not seen it because I can't reproduce it on a white board by hand. I can finally sleep at night now. ...and that is a HAYUL YAH!!! 8)

This one time, in 1995, one of my closest friends told me "I don't get the internet. It'll never take off." Then this other time in 2001, on this very page, one of my closest friends said "Nobody will ever surf the internet on their phone." Recently, some of my closest friends have been saying "I don't get Facebook. I don't get Twitter." Although Facebook itself may be overtaken by another social networking site or application (like MySpace was overtaken by Facebook), social networking will continue to grow exponentially, and particularly into wireless phones/devices. Social networking is THE killer app for the Internet. In 5 years, it will be routine for you to be having ongoing "conversations" (whether live or in blog format like this page) over the Internet with ALL your group of friends (not just those on this page), and many of you will have CONTINUOUS (always connected, not just when you have time to chat) contact over the Internet with one or more of your friends. In 10 years, you will consider group activities (meeting for coffee, going to concerts together, clubbing, a group workout, etc.) over the Internet as routine as group activities in real life, ALTHOUGH YOU WILL STILL PREFER PHYSICAL PRESENCE OF OTHER PEOPLE. The current generation of children ALREADY considers these kinds of interactions normal. They play Halo on XBOX live with full conversations and interactions in virtual games for hours at a time with both their local friends and people they've never met. They will play what I would call "virtual karaoke" over the Internet on Playstation 3 with Rock Band, hooking up with "virtual musicians" for amateur jam sessions. Many of those children actually prefer their online friends (which is unhealthy, and requires parenting). But your own personal preference about privacy and/or whether you like to use Facebook or Twitter are irrelevant to where the rest of the world is headed. Kinda makes me feel small. ;-)

thing i don't like about facebook is that you can't see a profile page unless you're a 'friend'. so if you're looking for someone and find 5 people with the same name and not sure which is the one you want to connect with, you need to submit 'friend' requests to all, wait for acceptance, then check the profiles to find out which is the person you were looking for. then...how can you 'unfriend' the others?

Sa big time at the moment KP - new baby coming along and Lucy gets her first running bike and a big wheel in the next two weeks - can't wait! Pretty soon she's gonna be dropping me and telling her friends "oh don't worry about him, he'll be off the back in the next five minutes". Daughters man - love em!

Thinking of getting a t-shirt for ST2 saying "My Dad puts our more watts that your dad". Good call?

I have a pal in San Diego who was 17lbs at birth. The docs had to break his collar bone to get him out. True story! He's now an MD working for Planned Parenthood.

FFO ... you and me ... an extended easy to steady long ride on the bike. You share the 'true story' of FFO ... all the way back to university days (including politics) and I buy whatever we need post ride to sustain the conversation. Maybe Brain joins us. C'mon!

Although I've got years of jiu jitsu so tucking and rolling is not a problem for me.

Yup, bilateral Colles fractures that both required open reduction internal fixation = disability and a lot of rehab.

snowboarding injuries are typically wrist/shoulder from breaking falls with arms out. gotta learn to tuck and roll. the good thing is that both feet are solidly attached to the same device, so ankle/knee/hip injuries are rare. legs just aren't able to move in different directions or twist, crossover, etc. you'll probably never hear about a snowboarder blowing an acl. less crap to tote around the mountain, too.

I was all over the boarding thing until one of my colleagues came back from his trip with multiple fractures. Apparently a low speed freak accident but it took him a year to recover.

dunno, ray....never learned how to ski. started snowboarding in my 50s, though. no biggie. just need snow, a board, and a reasonably high tolerance for pain.
