Pretty well, except it is called Australia Day and it marks the landing of the first fleet from England in 1788.


Yes, the fleet was full of convicts.

Is there a list of those onboard somewhere? I'm guessing there were distant family members in there somewhere based on family history.

Most folks somehow trace their heritage back to some royalty, mine seems to trace back to prisons in the UK.

Of course, that explains a lot.

I've seen the death masks, including the mask and armor of Ned Kelly. Creepy stuff.

Furthest back we can trace is very poor dirt farmers in oklahoma, or texas, or something like that.

It's 6:20? We went to bed at 10.

Also I'm really anxious for call this morning. Yesterday, me and this bigwig at the hospital played phone tag. They have a "settlement" they would like to discuss for my emergency room visit.

I went to that tour too, but of course it had to be the one where he played like 4 songs and collapsed from “heat exhaustion” or whatever. It wasn’t even that hot!

Funny, I just reached over and picked up the last 3 CD's I listened to while working on the computer.
Here's the list in order:
Black Hawk Down, Original Motion Picture Soundtrack.
Marilyn Manson, The Golden Age of Grotesque
Hardware, Third Eye Open


You'd be very surprised just how eclectic my musical tastes are. From ABBA to Zappacosta.

Next time look for Z32 pads. Easier to find Winmax in those iirc. I remember looking them up for one of the threads on the swap.

Dare I ask, can you see your brake pads without taking your wheels off?
