What did you get for Christmas? Got lots a clothes and stuff myself, a couple bottles of wine and a really neat camera drone. Gonna have lots of fun with that!:)

Well it's official. Got one all the way through school with minimal blood shed, no incarcerations or paternity suits!:D Son's currently working full time on the farm and plans to walk his beloved down the aisle sometime next year. Well, down the corridor at the registrars office anyway...;)

My son had just started schooling so guess he was around 6. That was back when I lived in the states. My boy's 18 now. Been schooling down here since 3rd grade. Set to graduate next month. Any road, on his 1st day of school back then, teacher asked the class what their parents did for a living...

How 'bout making a sub-category entitled 'Code of Conduct' for that thread under site news, so new members can find it more easily?

I don't fully embrace the idea of reincarnation, but I do tend to lean in that direction. Here of late though, the pitch has increased. This all started with the death of my mom and the unexpected passing of our Nanna Gymea 2 days later, an Aboriginal woman that's looked after our family nearly...

We have a "Like" option to voice approval of posts. How about balancing it out with a "Dislike" option to voice disapproval? Perhaps we could even add something like, "Nice" or "Heartfelt" to the mix for those times when a simple "Like" just doesn't say enough.

Previous theme, (Please Disregard): Lot of fuss lately over which is right. Creation, evolution or some combination of the two. Problem for me is, what difference does it make? I mean, however it happened, we're here now. What use arguing about it? No one's opinion is going to change anytime...

How far did you get academically and what was your course of study? As a follow up, how do you relate to those with less or more education? For myself I'm a university graduate. I have a Bachelor of Education Degree, but half way through my studies I was bitten by the photography bug and ended...

I've made my living as a photographer/videographer for close to 25 years now and was wondering if there are any other photogs among us whether amateur or professional? I'd be happy to entertain any questions if anyone has an interest in the subject.

Just spent better part of a week photographing popcorn pop. That's right. Popcorn pop. My brain hurts! After turning in my preliminary shots, the producer says the client's reaction is positive, but he'd like to see a few more pics. Ok, so I pop some more corn, take some more pics and turn those...

My dad blamed everything he didn't like on Satan's children. If someone misquoted scripture or committed a crime of some sort he'd say, "The sons of Cain done got to another one!" So my question to believers of all faiths is: How much influence do you think Satan has on us today? Your personal...

On a recent trip to the states, I couldn't help notice the odd way broadcast TV's censored. On network daytime dramas, it's pretty much anything goes, but on network affiliate sub-stations it's a different story. I was watching an old science fiction movie and they went so far as to blip 'hell...

A while back Wil ask me to make a thread about Aussie Slang. Well, there's a lot of websites along those lines like this one: http://www.koalanet.com.au/australian-slang.html but from my side there's also a lot of misconceptions about Aussie Slang and Australia in general. Like, we're all...

http://debunkingatheists.blogspot.com/2009/01/adams-rib.html Stumbled across this on the web and thought it interesting. Something for everyone here. Food for thought for the forward thinkers among us and some modern thinking to shoot down for eveyone else. "According to Strong's Hebrew...

Here's a simple question or perhaps a more difficult one depending on your perspective. We all have our beliefs and disbeliefs. What if it turns out that what you believe is 100% wrong? Do you think that matters to God? From my side I like to think that just putting in the effort and doing your...

There's something I've always been curious about and since there seems to be a number of Atheists on the forum, I thought I'd ask. Why would an Atheist join a faith based forum?

I had to fight back the tears the other day when I came across my dad's old food stained Bible. It got that way because he used to read it to us during Sunday dinner when I was a kid. He liked the book of Corinthians best and often picked passages to discuss while we ate. I can just hear him...

Hey Steve, I wasn't sure where to put this. If you think it would fit better somewhere else, feel free to bump. Ok, bear with me for a moment. This is a bit difficult to explain. There are times when we view our works as purely innocent, while others view them as wrong or even sinful. For...

Well it happened. Had to sooner or later I suppose. My bloody kid reached legal driving age and passed the road test in one hit, (no pun intended). Actually, he's been driving on the farm since he was 12 and can hold a clutch on a muddy hill better than me. So, why am I worried?

Did you follow in your dad's footsteps? That is, do you make your living in the same way he did? Much to my dad's disappointment, I did not. He was a 3rd generation farmer and quite proud of his heritage. He long awaited for me his 1st born to follow in his footsteps, but it was not to be...
