I love the language differences between english speaking countries! A friend had a series of exercise dvds from the usa and one was called 'fanny firmers'. We couldn't stop laughing and made jokes about 'firming our fannies' for weeks! Also, went to a department store in canada called...

I've never had much luck using my ha with glass. What are you all doing that makes it work so well?

@Amoreena i could see that getting quite confusing lol. So, thongs (with an 's') are footwear and a thong (no 's') is underwear? Just thought of another couple. Aussie cars don't have 'trunks', they have 'boots' (eg, can you get the spare tyre out of the car boot). We don't use the word...

I always use a screen on top of my load otherwise i tend to overfill the crucible. I've not found too much difference between grinding and not grinding. @Tommy10 i get decent vapour at about 170c-180c and am surprised at how much i enjoy starting low and moving up to 200c quite slowly.

My dbv stays on the same temperature and i adjust my breathing to increase temps. With the extreme Q and my ha, i start at 175c and slowly make my way up to 260(Q) and 200c (ha).

In australia 'thongs' are footwear (flip-flops) In usa 'thongs' are skimpy underwear. We call call such skimpy undies 'g-strings' or 'g-bangers' . :lol: Oh, and 'pick-up trucks' are called 'utes' down in this part of the world...

@MinnBobber i wonder if mango juice drinks would work? I can feel a few days of serious, scientific experimentation coming on, lol. I am adding dried mango and mango juice to my shopping list...

As a recreational user, legalisation really doesn't matter that much to me, although i would like to see cannabis decriminalised for recreational use. Whatever happens, my life really won't be affected. However, medical users need a reliable, good quality supply that is legal. We shouldn't be...

I been hearing about the mango-thing for a while now and have decided to give it a go. Will pick up a mango this afternoon and see how it goes... My t-break induced munchies seem to be wearing off now (finally). Last night i only had a handful of macadamias and a handful of chicos (aussie...

I loathe extremists. They bully, threaten and shout everyone else down and refuse to even consider any position other than their own. They are willing to place ideology above the murder of young children and the safety of citizens. I am greatly disturbed by any group that is convinced of its...

If the majority of us citizens don't want their gun laws changed then they won't be changed. Over the years there have been so many mass shootings and after each one i waited for the announcement about new gun control laws. After the Sandy Hook (primary school) shooting, i realised that the laws...

@grokit i think it would be a very foolish or crazy government that tried to take guns away from american citizens.

@grokit but the us government has access to the most poweful weapons in the world. The usa government has a massive and diverse arsenal at its disposal. Even the most powerful guns and a citizen militia would be no match for the usa government/military.

Good points @CarolKing. Media reports make it easy to think that the usa is full of crazy, stupid people but of course this is both untrue and unfair. Your large population means that the 1% of crazy people is much larger than the australian 1% of crazy people (hope that makes sense). What...

Surely americans aren't really afraid of being invaded? The usa is a large and powerful country and any other country wanting to invade it would have to be insane. I would be more afraid of september 11-style attacks, and guns aren't much use in that type of situation.

@kellya86 it is good that mmj is being legalised but i hope that people won't still be prosecuted between now and 2017. Medical users need a reliable supply as soon as possible imo. Australia doesn't let boatloads of asylum seekers die at sea. They are picked up and taken to Christmas Island...

@grokit thanks for the link! Is this what you think is going to happen? What do you think the response would be?

Good news: medical cannabis to be legalised, for limited use, in victoria, australia. Bad news: government is growing the supply which will be available in 2017 and not in any form that can be smoked. We victorians will still have to acquire more herb than we can use... (see what i did there, lol)

When i get the munchies it's all about shovelling food into my gob. It's not very enjoyable for me. Imo, good food should be savoured and enjoyed not shoved down your throat in a feeding frenzy. I don't like the feeling of not being in control (which is how i feel when i have the munchies).

@grokit so why aren't these things being done? I'm not trying to be a dick or have a go at you, i'm genuinely interested. It can be difficult for us non-americans to make sense of how these things work... @CarolKing i like the way you think :tup:
