Hi Ya,

"The WA Road Safety Council wants speed limits in the city reduced to 30 or 40 kmph. (ABC News: ABC News)
The State Government is considering a proposal to lower the speed limit on city and country roads.

The recommendations are contained in a discussion paper released today by WA's Road Safety Council.

The paper recommends a re-zoning of the 60 kilometre an hour limit to 50, on all Perth roads, except in the CBD where a limit of 30 or 40 kilometres per hour has been suggested.

In the country, the Road Safety Council has recommended a reduction in the general speed limit of 10 kilometres per hour.

The plan is being circulated for debate, in the lead up to a new five year road safety strategy."

An 80-year-old man goes for a physical. All of his tests come back withnormal results. The doctor says, "George, everything looks great. How are You doing mentally and emotionally? Are you at peace with God?"
George replies, "God and I are tight. He knows I have poor eyesight, so he's fixed it so when I get up in the middle of the night to go to the Bathroom, *poof*!, the light goes on. When I'm done, *poof*!, the light goes off."
"Wow, that's incredible," the doctor says.
A little later in the day, the doctor calls George's wife.
"Ethel," he says, "George is doing fine but I had to call you because I'm in awe of his relationship with God. Is it true that he gets up during the night and *poof *!, the light goes on in the bathroom, and when he's done, *poof*! The light goes off?"
"OH MY GOD!" Ethel exclaims. "He's pissing in the fridge again!!!!".



A store that sells new husbands has just opened in New York City, where a woman may go to choose a husband.
Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates:
1. You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the value of the product increase as the shopper ascends the flights.
2. The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building!
So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband.
On the first floor the sign on the door reads:
Floor 1 - These men Have Jobs.


The second floor sign reads:
Floor 2 - These men Have Jobs and Love Kids.

The third floor sign reads:
Floor 3 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, and are Extremely Good Looking.
"Wow," she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going.
She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads
:
Floor 4- These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, areDrop-dead Good Looking and Help With Housework
"Oh, mercy me!" she exclaims, "I can hardly stand it
Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads:

Floor 5 - These men Have Jobs, Love Kids, are Drop-dead Gorgeous, Help with Housework, and have a Strong Romantic Streak .

She is so tempted to stay, but she goes on to the sixth floor and the sign reads:
Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store.
To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner also opened a New Wives store just across the street.The first floorhas wives that love sex.The second floor has wives that love sex and have big Boobs.The third through sixth floors have neverbeen visited


A woman went to her doctor. The doctor, after an examination, sighed and said, "I've some bad news. You have cancer, and you'd best put your affairs in order."


The woman was shocked, but managed to compose herself and walk into the waiting room where her daughter had been waiting.
"Well daughter, we women celebrate when things are good, and we celebrate when things don't go so well. In this case, things aren't well. I have cancer. Let's head to the club and have a martini."


After 3 or 4 martinis, the two were feeling a little less sombre. There were some laughs and more martinis. They were eventually approached by some of the woman's old friends, who were curious as to what the two were celebrating. The woman told her friends they were drinking to her impending end. "I've been diagnosed with AIDS." The friends were aghast and gave the woman their condolences.


After the friends left, the woman's daughter leaned over and whispered, Mum, I thought you said you were dying of cancer, and you just told your friends you were dying of AIDS."


The woman said, "I don't want any of those bitches sleeping with your father after I'm gone

Hello fellow fishing addicts,

I will be traveling to exmouth early next year, (towing a boat) and was thinking
about taking a trip out to the murion islands.
Has anyone been to the islands and is it worth the trip?
Is there anything different to catch at the islands than what you can get locally,
say at tantabiddi or in the gulf?
Thanks

BASIC RULES FOR DRIVING IN PERTH
Perth, as many of you know, is where I live and if there's one thing we are renowned for its bad drivers. Everyone just seems to hoon around with their eyes closed, never checking mirrors and completely oblivious to the fact that there are actually other road users. That's where this list comes in - it's so absolutely true it's almost not funny...

1. Indicators will give away your next move. A real Perth driver never uses them.

2. Under no circumstances should you leave a safe distance between you and the car in front of you, or somebody else will fill in that space, putting you in an even more dangerous situation.

3. Crossing two or more lanes in a single lane change is considered "going with the flow."

4. The faster you drive through a red light, the less chance you have of getting hit.

5. Never get in the way of an older car that needs extensive repairs. The other guy doesn't have anything to lose.

6. Braking is to be done as hard and as late as possible to ensure that your ABS kicks in, giving a nice, relaxing foot massage as the brake pedal pulsates. For those of you without ABS, it's a chance to stretch your legs.

7. Speed limits are arbitrary figures, given only as suggestions and apparently not enforceable in the metro area during rush hour.

8. Please remember that there is no such thing as a shortcut during rush-hour traffic in Perth.

9. Always slow down and rubberneck when you see an accident or even someone changing a tyre.

10. Everybody thinks their vehicle is better than yours, especially 4WD drivers.

11. Learn to swerve abruptly. Perth is the home of High-Speed Slalom Driving thanks to Main Roads, which puts potholes in key locations to test drivers' reflexes and keep them on their toes, not forgetting the 'Test your skill' chicanes in suburbs.

12. It is traditional in Perth to honk your horn at cars that don't move the instant the light changes.

13. Seeking eye contact with another driver revokes your right of way.

14. Never take a green light at face value. Always look right and left before proceeding.

15. Remember that the goal of every Perth driver is to get there first, by whatever means necessary.

16. Real Perth women drivers can put on pantyhose and apply eye makeup at 75 kph in bumper-to-bumper traffic.

17. Real Perth men drivers can remove pantyhose and a bra at 95 kph in bumper-to-bumper traffic.

18. Heavy fog and rain are no reasons to change any of the previously listed rules. These weather conditions are God's way ensuring a natural selection process and creating a need for panel beaters, junkyards, and new vehicle sales. It is an acceptable practice to increase your speed in comparison to the rate of rain fall, i.e.: the harder it rains, the faster you go.

19. There is a commonly held belief in Perth that high-speed tailgating in heavy traffic reduces petrol consumption as you get sucked along in the slipstream of the car in front.

20. It's OK to cut off fully loaded semi-trailers, road trains and buses because, hell - they have brakes.

21. It is an essential duty of the driver to preserve the life of his passengers. Hence no matter how much of an inconvenience it may be, always find a detour around The Causeway, The Narrows, and Guildford.

22. Always anticipate oncoming traffic while driving down a one-way street.

23. Its O.K when driving in Northbridge to air your grievances at bad drivers by giving the "one finger salute" while screaming out "cunt". However, it is imperative you are driving at least a 5-litre V8 with a crow bar in your lap.

24. Perth drivers are experts at merging, when in two or more lanes travelling in the same direction, ensure that if you see someone politely indicating, waiting slowly trying to merge into your lane, show them that they must 'Wait their turn' to use your lane. Speed up, try to cut them off, should they succeed and get into your lane never mind that it was actually legal for them to do that, ensure that your flash your lights, honk your horn, use extreme hand gestures, even tailgate them, just to let them know, IT WAS YOUR LANE.

25. Ensure that when merging into traffic travelling at any more than 40kph that you stop in the merging lane, backing up traffic for miles behind you, ensuring that you have given yourself or no-one else that opportunity to merge. Again, forget that the traffic handbook states that you should speed up to meet traffic speed then merge. If you are travelling in a lane near a merge lane, don't change lanes to make it easy for them, instead see rule 24, after all they deserve it.

26. While using Perth roundabouts, particularly two lane roundabouts, ENSURE that you are in the left lane to turn right, or the right to turn left, hell lets keep those people in those other lanes on their toes.

27. If you are a TransPerth bus driver, you must win at all costs, getting to your destination prior to any other driver is life and death. Never worry about your passengers bouncing round in the back like tennis balls, hell it's a cheap form of theme park, in fact Perth's very own.

28. Perth taxis see rule 27, except you are now qualifying for the GMC 400.

29. Pedestrian crossings - What are they?

30. If you are a cyclist remember YOU ARE INVINCIBLE, you are stronger than ANY vehicle travelling at speed, MAKE SURE you take the whole lane for yourself, and at night NEVER use lights, remember They Will See You!

31. Remember, the wider, smoother, and safer the road... the lower the speed limit.

32. When driving on the freeway, find somebody who is going slow, drive next to them, so that nobody can pass you. It's called, speed prevention. It's your duty!

Ps. Andy,Tim,Adam if this isn't alright with you please delete content (I understand if you want to keep the site free of this kind of post) Cheers.

i would like to apologise to all the fishwrecked members, adam and to the moderators and especially to any japanese members or guests that go to this site for my racist and uncalled for comments on the thread about the dolphins. It was totally uncalled for and i was way out of line. I have seen footage of this goings on a few years ago and it brought tears to my eyes to think that people could do something like this to creatures so beautiful as dolphins. This is no excuse for my actions but when i read the thread it brought back some pretty bad memories of what id seen years b4. I thought this was supposed to be a fishing site about catching and enjoying fishing and not about showing people where to go and see dolphins being slaughtered. Ill be taking myself off the site for a while as i know ive upset a lot of people. thankyou tangles.

While Andy mac is busy deleting all the bullshit from a spammer please dont not click on any of the links he has put up! Just until its all sorted out. Thanks Chris.

Guts or Balls...

There is a medical distinction. We've all heard about people having guts or
balls, but do you really know the difference between them? In an effort to
keep you informed, the definitions are listed below:

GUTS - Is arriving home late after a night out with the guys, being met by
your wife with a broom, and having the guts to ask: "Are you still
cleaning, or are you flying somewhere?"

BALLS - Is coming home late after a night out with the guys, smelling of
perfume and beer, lipstick on your collar, slapping your wife on the ars*
and having the balls to say: "You're next fatty."

I hope this clears up any confusion on the definitions.

Medically speaking, there is no difference in the outcome, since both
ultimately result in death.

Ok this is for the nerds, if there is such a thing on here...

Is anyone looking forward to Halo 3 coming out in less than a week?

Does anyone or has anyone actively played Halo 2 or the original?

This is going to be the icing on the cake, it is going to be absolutely awesome! Bungie have absolutely outdone themselves this time.. and no wonder, Halo 2 is still kicking ass with between half a million and a million games being played per day online and between 300,000 and 700,000 players consistently playing everyday, and the game is nearly 5 years old!

LONG LIVE BUNGIE~!

Disapointing to hear that judd is leaving the eagles but I still think that the eagles will go on and still be a force in the afl with out him as it takes more than one player to win a premership. Plus is he really worth 7.5 million over five years I know he is good but is he that good.

Looking at purchasing a vac pac to store meat, fish (if the weather brightens enough to get some more) and pre-cooked meals.
Just wondering if many of you use them, pros & cons, and which brands to look at, or not.
Seems to be a huge range in the pricing structure amoungst all the brands.
Cheers
