In the Sydney news this morning, they are reporting that 400kgs of ammonium nitrate has been stolen off a freight train north of Sydney. Thats a hell of alot of potential trouble.

It could be someone has a lot of roses or needs a lot of icepacks...
Oklahoma bombing was nearly six times that amount of nitrate.

This is a lot of stuff.Maybe someone is already peparing his new years party and i dont want to get invited.I just had a discussion about that 2 weeks ago with a friend who is working in that field.After that it really freaks me.Same stuff they used for the trainbombings here in germany a few month ago.

Good suggestion! I may just take you up on that!

BTW, if you haven't noticed, I'm not that easy to get rid of!

But, really, just wanted to see that you weren't napping! Wouldn't want you getting bored now!

It was probably an english cricket fan who thought that by fertilising the Gabba that it would slow Australia's pace attack; thereby helping England to retain the Ashes.

Well they have been badly managed and played like crap in between.. Will be interesting but they need to shape up to be in contention at all..

I tend to root for the green shirts whenever they are on anyway.

Was this the NZ team that fielded an illegible player 555555

I hope the Ashes will be competetive, but fear it will be over after 3 matches. Our only hope is Aussie overconfidence. Thats what cost them the series last year.

Oh and England were better

Well this morning there was huge explosion at one of the main power stations near where this theft took place. The whole power grid flashed. I wonder if there is any connection here, I hope not.

I guess if there is, we will probably never know.
