Hmm, looks like you're right. never seen the cutlass before... it looks odd, almost like a jet LongEZ.

Nope, that was one of my thoughts too, but the A-4 and TA-4 are low wing with the intake above the wing. this looks mid wing with the intakes ahead and level with the wing root. I though A-10 without the gun at first, but their engines are out back and podded.

what is this one: With the long nose leg it looks a naval craft?

no, warp is not linear arithmetic progression, it is logarithmic progression... warp 9.9 is just under infinite speed :D

we'll just milk the topic for all it's worth.

Just wait by your phone, some guy from Microsoft will ring you sometime and ask you for remote access. You can practice on him.

Just buy the HAL Tejas with the Rafales electronics with the Meteor and ASRAAM upgrades and Naval Strike Missile. It's what I would be doing if I was Defence minister here and had the budget. I'd prefer the Typhoons radar to the Rafales, but the Tejas's nose cone isn't big enough to fit it.

Not a problem for me, my hearing is bad enough that even HiFi Stereo is lofi mono once they've made it through my hearing aid.

meh. Over here live together in a relationship for 3 years and you're legally given all the same relationship protections as legally married couples. De Facto couples get to be included in inestate no-will death divvy-ups, break up after 3 years and a couple of months and you get a claim on Matrimonial Property same as any non-PreNup married couple getting divorced. IIRC it doesn't even mention sex, just "Living together in the nature of a marriage" without actually being married.

Rat is not uncommon in the seedy side street stalls. I'd be more worried about what they cook them in, Google "Gutter Oil"

Reminds me on a joke I heard some years back. A travelling salesman was in a new town, not knowing the town he decided to pop into the pub a few doors down from his hotel for a beer. Inside the pub the lighting was dim and the inhabitants filling a certain stereotype, lots of leather, studs, men dancing together. Deciding that what the hell, beer is beer, wherever it is served, he proceeds to the bar and orders. Two bearded types standing next to him wearing what cowboys would wear if cowboys wore leather straps were next to him at the bar. Suddenly one farted. *Phut* Shortly afterwards the other farted as well. *Phut* Feeling a bit tight from the gas inside the salesman decided it must be an accepted thing in this town to fart in public. So he let out his load of gas *PPPFFFRRrrreeetttttt* The psuedo-cowboys chimed up together, "Ah, a Virgin!"

I would have expected him to have shown up in something big enough to carry 4 passengers! He knew how many were coming, so there was no excuse there... Pretty shoddy service.

The biggest problem with most american tigers is they are hybrids. Worth nothing but their value as a rug. There are two genotypes of tiger, Siberian, found in the north and east of Russia, and Benegal, found from Bruma to Pakistan with most in the northeast of India. The wild populations are geneticly distinct, but most domestic tigers are a blend of the two, which makes them worthless as potential acclimatization and release subjects. You may as well use them to make rugs and use the bones to make Tiger Wine to sell to the Chinese, none of the wildlife protection societies are going to release blended genes to mix and muddy the wild populations.

Does AusPost have a mail forwarding warehouse? NZPost has a service set up where you send your US purchases to a US warehouse and they pack it all up and ship it to NZ bulk and then reship it domestically here. Plus there are a number of private companies doing the same thing, but probably without the bulk economy of a major postal carrier.
