Always back the horse named self-interest, son. It'll be the only one trying
It was going over here, to Alyangula, on Groote Eylandt, which is Dutch word for Island. But the barge didn’t make it. It got blown away by the wind. Fair dinkum. Quick abbreviated history lesson. A Dutch privately owned but State backed outfit called the Dutch East India Company used to own Indonesia, which being […]
Look at the size of this unmanned barge that mysteriously washed up empty near Badu Island in the Torres Strait yesterday. They reckon it got washed away from its mooring in Indonesia, and the wind and tide blew it there. Bullshit. Badu Island is thousands of kilometers from Indonesia, with coral reefs and islands in […]

The APG sale at Ipswich yesterday was a weird one. Only 19 lots of the 41 lots on offer sold, at an appalling clearance rate of just 46.34%. If Inglis or the Magic millions only sold those sort of numbers they would give up. NZ Standardbred would too. There were three reasons for the low […]
Carter Dalgety copped a two week suspension for almost knocking Mark Pitt and Oliver Dan over and out on the first turn in the Kilmore Cup. He deserved it too. The HRV Stewards have however been kind enough to delay the start date of the penalty by 8 days to allow Dalgety to drive in […]
Jeffrey Epstein’s mates were middle ages men or older. These are some of the girls they were ‘playing’ with. Can anyone tell me they are not kids? Anyone who tries to tell you they weren’t is a liar.
