The administration will just apply for an appeal to the decision - 6 months - then if it is approved it goes to a one man Supreme Court ruling (18 months), then they appeal again (12 months) and it goes to the full bench (24 months) who will declare its now outside the scope of action.

More like the Cheka in the Soviet Union that just kidnapped anyone they found on the street to meet a quota.

As far as I can find out, there is no constitutional restriction on outsourcing the imprisonment of Americans in foreign countries. This is not deportation.

Australia was founded on the outsourcing of imprisonment of British prisoners, after the US war of Independence when US states refused to continue to take British prisoners.

Garcia was determined to be a refugee because he was a member of an El Salvadorian gang, so there is no likelihood he will be released in El Salvador.

“You need a pen licence because that’s what you use at work”.

Um no. Secretaries, lawyers and journalists used typewriters and engineers used propelling pencils. Builders had these odd rectangular shaped pencils that could write on anything. Fitters and boilermakers used chalk.

Only schoolchildren used biros.

There are 10 Commandments.

No - there’s 14.

And most of them also have sub-commandments, just to confuse it further.

So presumably NASA is anti-science ?

Because they have redetermined that Pluto is a planet.

Yeah but its such a hassle to find, so…

Edison ivented the light bulb in the US. No, it was Tungsram in Hungary. Edison did employ him as a result though. Bell invented the telephone. No, it was Edison labs. Bell stiole the patent from an Italian guy when he was working in the patent office. Philco invented the TV set. Nothing to do with it, it was Edison-Marconi. The CRT controller was invented in the Soviet Union hence the Philco invention story.

Stomach ulcers are caused by stress. Nope.

Alcoholism runs in families. Nope.

Heart disease runs in families. Nope.

Yeah you can’t just jet off whenever you like if you have a work visa. You need to get permission from the Immigration department first.

People often find this out when they do a quick trip over the border to Canada or Mexico.

War and Peace is made up of 42 or something full length novels.

It starts off with two lovers meeting at the man’s house, he joins the army as an officer, they have children, the man rises to become a captain or soemthing, then the Napoleonic War starts, then it follows Napoleans journey from France, through Italy, Austria, eastern Europe and then to his seige of Moscow. The youngest son has now joined the army, and he his keen to join in. The French army are retreating from Moscow, fed up, starving, tired and exhausted, the boy comes up to a band of French stragglers, the French lieutenant, slumped over on his horse, tiredly grabs his sword and slashes blindly behind him, decapitating the boy, his head held on by skin, his horse runs back to the rest of the Russians, where his father is leading.

Then there are 15 more novels after that !

The Malaysian version of Matrix cut out the kissing scene at the end.

MASH on Channel 10 (Australia) used to be so heavily censored they would splice two episodes into one.

…with what happened to Saddam Hussein and Colonel Gaddaffi.

The question is why there are farm subidies at all, since they always vote Republican anyway.

They’ll be changed again tomorrow.

The crazy isn’t going to stop.

How long do you think Tesla Shanghai is going to keep going for. Shut down that factory and all of Tesla will grind to a halt.

The Empire makes the rules, it doesn’t follow them.

Thats not how the mafia works.

They make a demand, and if you accept it, they make more demands.

The mafia are businesspeople, just not very good at it, that’s why they kneecap their competitors.

Soccer is short for “Association Football” so either term is valid.

The Public Schools in the west of Britain were Army schools, they played Rugby, and used western prouniciation ie “castle = carsell” and “lieutenant=leftenant”

The Public Schools in the east of Britain were Navy schools, they played Association Football" and used eastern pronunciation “castle=kassel”, and “lieutenant=lootenant”.

Lieutenant is still pronounced differently in the Royal navy and army.

The US measures are based on an older Imperial system that Britain changed. There were different measures in different parts of the UK.
