Lol - it seemed quite plausible as a child !! ( along with Lassie and there was another show with a very clever dolphin in it - name escapes me - really showing my age !! )
‘ flipper ‘ x
To be honest all of us have been part of groups that looked down on other groups - I mean at school, it would be one school against another, In school it was the ordinary against the those who were really clever. Within society it’s those who are wealthy against those who are poor ect ( and that’s nothing to do with colour or race ) So then it moves to communities, cultures ect.
Yep I do, watch him as a series on TV in the 60s in NZ...such innocent times as a boyHahahahaha thanks mate for putting a smile on my dial... Do any of u guys know "skippy the bush kangaroo"?
If Skippy was our prime minister the nation would have colonies on mars
Yes, it is odd, but it’s always there - is it’ the chip on their shoulder ‘ or perhaps deep down it’s because they want to be liked, now that’s a universal problem- don’t all of us want to be liked at some stage in our lives. We want to fit in , be accepted. Maybe , at the root of it ,is the need to be loved. The hole within the Human heart that only the Lord can really feel.The VERY ODD thing in One Looking upon another...TO me IS:
WHY are people SO OBSCESSED, with OTHERS who DO NOT LIKE THEM?
Their hair, their financial status, their housing, their looks, their customs, their clothing, their language, their behavior, their religious doctrines, their political views, their music, their popularity, their talents, their mannerisms, and ON and ON?
Seriously, WHY does the person being LOOKED Down upon...ARE "Themselves" placing such a "High Value" on what "another person" Dislikes?
That has Never made a lick of common sense to me.
Are people Really that Shallow, they believe their own Value is Dictated by what Other people think?
Glory to God,
Taken
I was thinking more along the lines ofI nominate Skippy to be a candidate for the next federal election

Im going to just let Rowan Dean speak here...
I utter his very words, with less aggression.
I've never seen this man so fired up before and i can understand why.
He makes some excellent points.
Now there is going to be a spike in corona cases and deaths, many will be linked to protesters.
In that case that blood is on the hands of our state premiers and courts.
If there is not spike then it will expose the fact that covid was overblow in the first place and all the damage from the lockdown will be in their hands
Either way our state premiers are about to get exposed I think. It should be similar in the USA too. If covid is really as bad as they've made it out to be bad then people will start dying
It’s the same in the UK - it was George Floyd that triggered the protests here, but we do equally have racist issues in certain areas- not to the same degree , but it’s never really gone away completely.
I believe the protests got out of hand on London.
Like you Cristo, I have concerns about the virus spiking as a result of so many people coming together around the country. We have only just lifted part of the lockdown. I feel for those who are vulnerable and are still in isolation, so eager to get back to some normality. If it spikes again ,that will affect them for longer.
If it doesn’t, then it will prove something else....

That's called the *unmasking* of Fauci.:cool: What is needed next is for him to be taken to the woodshed for misleading America and destroying its economy.But, I am seeing many without masks.
We still haven’t got ordinary shops open, only food shops. They can open on the 14 June. No hairdressers yet ( they don’t think that will happen till at least July, and that applies to cafes and other eating venues )Same here Rita,
Things seem so surreal right now and so many are on edge and fearful. They are ready and already busting out here...our outdoor restaurants are open now. Some beaches too. Maybe they should have given a good month after the riots settle to see what happens with the spike, before opening all this stuff. We are in phase two so...we can get haircuts, dogs groomed! But, I am seeing many without masks.

We have to wear masks in shops and on the buses - I have kind of got use to wearing them at work. My dad has been out for a few trips to have his warfarin test done at the local chemist. I haven’t been wearing masks on the way to work, but from the 14th it will be compulsory on public transport.

Also, did you not get the recent memo from WHO that only those who know they are infected should wear masks? Indeed, some doctors have warned that masks are more hazardous than no masks. And masks don't do a thing (except give you a chance to mug little old ladies).
@Rita Oh I can see that come July a lot of ppl will go get a hair chop for the summer! :)We still haven’t got ordinary shops open, only food shops. They can open on the 14 June.

That's what I love about Melbourne. Particularly in the west and south east. So cosmopolitan. It's even the same in the church I normally attend. Mostly Pacific island kiwis but also Filipino, African, Mauritian, Asian. And even a few Australians.Where, not in Melbourne, not west side suburbia. It a beautiful melting pot of cultures here.
I have been recording all them Skippy shows, I like Skippy, I remember that tried to show that one with the cute little koala on Skippy back to my nipper.@Rita @Brakelite2 @Josho @Reggie Belafonte
Enoch cracked me up with this and i was reminded of Skippy the bush kangaroo... He should be our prime minister...
He is smarter than all our politicians combined.
He does everything, catches bad guys, saves his mates, he understands English, he can operate vehicles and build rockets
Ahahaha e can even understand Italian mate what a classic. He gambles on the horses.
He delivers important orders and makes countless revelations, he picks locks and unties knots and neutralizes the enemy all the time...
And he gives baby koala a ride as well
I nominate Skippy to be a candidate for the next federal election
