    I didn't ever try to learn speed reading, I see it was a decision well taken.

    While it's been 43 degrees (Celsius) here in Canberra today, I understand there has been a little snow in parts of North America.

    No replies generally means no one has any information to offer. Asking again doesn't usually mean people will suddenly have anything more to say.

    The somewhat mischievously named 'Heard Island Government' Blue Sky account (named as a totally, like totally serious reference to certain economic policy decisions from nowhere near the actual, real Heard and McDonald Islands) quote posted a comment from elsewhere in the social media universe about the derivation of the word Arctic (it's a reference to bears), and by extension the naming of Antarctica. The reply that won the day?

    In the comments, someone asked what the Greek would be for Penguins and No Penguins, and someone dutifully provided an answer. Because of course they did.

    I found this graphic that popped up in my Facebook feed interesting (if not in the best focus). It displays the ABS [Australian Bureau of Statistics] characterisations of Australia from metropolitan to regional and remote. The ' very remote' region in red includes the places one would expect, desert, outback, whatever you want to call it, but also several islands in Bass Strait (between the mainland and Tasmania) that are very remote based on their isolation and lack of easy transport to and from them. The 'inner regional' areas in green include the regions close to big cities but also the more closely settled areas further away, including more intensive agricultural areas (intensive irrigation areas in north-east Victoria) and the areas along the main highways and rail lines between Sydney and Melbourne (east to west to the north of the ACT and connecting to NE Victoria).

    Gentlemen, please limit your comments to the movie itself and reviews of it, and avoid commenting on the people portrayed in it.

    I noticed that, not even yellow. The big cities in tropical Queensland (Cairns, Townsville and Mackay) only rate yellow as well. I guess the real remoteness (huge distances, one road and one rail line, and limited, expensive air connections) trumps the size of the city, which is only 150K anyway. Darwin also has scant international airline service. 
    The 'big' Tasmanian cities of Hobart and Launceston ('metro' populations of 250K and 90K respectively) at least rate green.

    Most of the rates in NYC fall in the range of $300-$400 for a 1-hour in call, though there are plenty of outliers. I’ve only personally had experience with these two (vers) men as bottoms, but both were phenomenal:

    mike carey got a reaction from + claym in Post-encounter upper respiratory infections   
    Further to my comment yesterday, and going to the part of the question musing about the correlation of an encounter being followed by mild symptoms, I have often wondered about apparently coincidentally having a cold while travelling. The idea that it might be an immune response to changes in environmental stimuli, the body adjusting to different microorganisms, pollens and the like, sounds plausible. Sort of a spike in immune response resulting in respiratory discomfort as it adapts to a new normal. I can recall similar nasal reactions after working in dusty conditions.
    Whether it's the body clearing up a minor viral infection or reacting to altered environmental conditions is immaterial, something, if it's minor is worth musing about rather than worrying. It's part of the price of admission to enjoying life.

    Well I wanted him to see my total value to compare to his for the 2022 i bond. It's not super sensitive information as there is none of my personal data being shown and I have posted on this thread for instance stating every time I've bought my 10k yearly allotment. I understand where you are coming from though. 👍

    The graphic is not funny.

    What is funny is that half the social media comments were about how wrong it was. Luxembourg has more people than greater London? Malta? Iceland? Really?
    The coup de grâce was that the other half of the comments were that it should be fewer, not less.
