You're telling me. First time I was told that's what I had I was like "sweet! I'm Jebus! It's all roses from here!".
Instead, I just can't see squares.

I think they're conspiring against riders this week; 3 days wasn't enough time for them to get their shit together and get my new forks from Sydney to Melbourne for the weekend.
No riding for me this weekend
Should have got them from the UK, they'd be here by now...

OK you win at least without goggles I can still ride! The sooner they privatise Auspost the better.I think they're conspiring against riders this week; 3 days wasn't enough time for them to get their shit together and get my new forks from Sydney to Melbourne for the weekend.

Because Telstra and the Commonwealth bank were so much better after they were privatised right!?
It's also a profitable business, $312 million after tax last year.

Telstra is a ZILLION times better than the old Telecom.
Where did you get such rose coloured glasses?
I know that Telstra can be frustrating to say the least at times ( I have felt it) but even thats LIGHT YEARS ahead of Telecom service.

Personal experience and I have a family member who worked for them for 15 years.

My dad worked his whole life at Telecom - I know frst hand how slack they were:
- Things like techy's listening into personal calls - a great deal.
- Things like work having to be repeated many times, due to useless cosmetic matters on a technical job.
- Things like employees walking off with LOADS of company items.

Why do the 'Living Off The Grid' people have a Facebook page?

Not really surprised. He's always on about free energy suppression and global central banking conspiracies.

to recruit other people to their invidious cult, of course!
actually it's a pretty informative page, tho it does tend to feature a lot of yuppie weekender cabins for the dabblers.

I'm sure it is, but isn't 'getting off the grid' all about disconnecting yourself from modern society in such a way that you are free of all monitoring and reliance on the government, security services, corporations etc.
I'm not exactly sure that the World's Largest Social Media Networking Site is really the place to accomplish this...

And it's...... surgery. Damn

Since when was being completely hypocritical an issue to any nutjob?
I also find it amusing that those 'occupy' people protesting corporate greed all seem to have the latest smart phone. Way to fight the system guys.

Pretty sure they're not suggesting we all go back to agrarian times.

I think they mean living off the grid in the sense they don't rely on "grid" power, water etc and that as much of what they do as possible is environmentally friendly. It appears to be all about minimising environmental impact.
Rather than going off the grid and being impossible to find.
