could that happen here in Aus or should I ask conspiricy theroists?

Why would his DNA be on record?

DNA and other biometrics are usually recorded during an arrest process. Though, with the legal age being 21 in the good ol' US, do they collect DNA from juvenile offenders? He'd have to have a good rap sheet if they did have it recorded.

Ancestry DNA can be accessed by authorities if requested.

Not sure about the rest of the world but in NZ they do the Guthrie heel blot blood test on new born babies, picking they have everyone's DNA stored somewhere.

Similarly, I often have a Pearl Jam parody in my head.... "Cant find the butter, man"

Bit odd, manufacturing fault or el cheapo spare part?

[Citroënbender]

Don’t know yet. TBH it could even be our fault, if an overlength screw was used and it bottomed out before clamping. VAG are really finicky about screw lengths and they are a bit odd overall; 10, 12, 16, 18, 22 all in similar areas of the motor. So if it was supposed to be 16 but an 18 went in - that’s a potential issue.

Takes half a day to tear down and clean.

So I'm applying the Mallow Wax to the Falcon,
in the shed to stay nice and cool and I notice a mark
in the paint work, so grab some polish to remove said mark
and buggar me it's a reflection in the paint of the roof of the garage.

I'm thinking here that I might be feeling a wee bit silly!!!!!



It's good to laugh at yourself occasionally.

Work; thousands of dollars in Snappy gear yet the $15 pump sprayer for degreasing has been broken several weeks. And people firing the “parts cannon” or tryagnostic method to no avail. I like to feel more respect for the customer’s pocket. The apprentice bringing his extended family in for foreign orders, like something from an episode of Housos.

Getting grumpy in my old age, but YouTube channels who either vlog or review cars. HOLD THE CAMERA STILL! Sick of static shots where the camera sways side to side, or today a kiwi was showing the interior of a car but was working the camera like Steve Irwin on a croc, stop wrestling it and hold it still so we can see what you’re trying to show.

Not an easy thing to do, if you have them on hand!

The last time I had a migraine, it's not something I want to repeat any time soon.

After I got home from work, had my shower and sat down in front of the TV before dinner, I sort of knew something was off. Within half an hour, I was down on the bed with the lights off. Within an hour, I was basically immobilized, and my blood sugar had crashed, like scary low. So, a massive hypo and a crushing migraine, I just couldn't lift myself up and into kitchen.

I ended up texting my parents for help, they managed to get two glasses of orange juice into me. Which was then followed an hour later by projectile vomiting into the toilet (sorry, but part of the story). Naturally, that also would have negated any pain relief I had taken. In hindsight, I probably should have had a Glucagon injection instead.

Since then, my doctor recommended the following -

That’s an interesting product to read about - thanks. I feel like there’s a “crunch” waiting to be got out of my neck which will help, but can’t make it happen yet.

This is the tax for over-doing things three days in a row, as the flu set in.

I used to get cluster migraines behind the right eye. Suddenly disappeared when I had chemo 6 years ago.
Slowly starting to creep back in now unfortunately.
I take Imigran, takes about an hour to slowly kick in.
Trick is to take it as soon as the onset of a migraine starts, if you leave it too late, they don't work.
Can make you a little bit foggy for a short while, but I was able to function OK.
Cost $20 for pack of 4, but Chemist warehouse much cheaper.

I can safely say that before the onset of a migraine, I was either heavily stressed out or physically exhausted/heat stroke.

I had suffered migraines in my younger days, touch wood been good in the last twenty years, yesterday I had my first Shingles vaccination, well the side effects hit me last night and it was full on muscular pain like having a bad case of the flu, I'm not sure which is worse, but I hope I have a better sleep night tonight.
I'm still aching all over, not looking to my second shot in four months.

[Citroënbender]

That’s relatable, I had chicken pox as an adult in 2019 and it ironed me out for several days. Shingles last year, much less so. But the vaccine should get you through to recovery a lot faster.
