Are all the Vic teams leaving Melbourne to go on another road trip?

Yes, they had to leave Victoria by midnight last night and they have to self-isolate in NSW for 2 weeks to be able to get to Darwin. Some of the teams only agreed to it on the condition that they go home after that round:

Are there any video clips of McLaughlin's skid into the pits anywhere? Just curious to see if it's worthy of any style points!

I believe he ws talking about Scott Dixon...

Yes, but he did so while quoting a post that was almost certainly referring to McLaughlin!

I'd defeat the benefits of a mask by having to sneak a wipe of my nose every 15 minutes at the moment and I don't think dry air would lessen it much. In the past, other issues I've had from flying due to my sinus include sharp pains when they start to ease the cabin pressure towards the end of a flight, and nausea as a kid (severely excessive post-nasal drip traps burps).

Similar dilemma with my niece in Melbourne, but my parents decided it's more sensible to wait until they get vaccinations before flying over to meet their first grandchild. I can't expect to get the vaccine at the same time as them. I need to get my health sorted out a bit if I'm to feel up to tagging along on the trip though. Hours wearing a mask wouldn't go well with sinus troubles.

The Triple Eight one is an older photo from before a few of the specs were refined, as explained here:

37 years ago it was '84.  It's my favourite number.

Which is your favourite, 37 or 84? 84 happens to be twice 42, the answer to life, the universe and everything.

I'd not long popped outta the womb then given I turned 37 a few months ago. 7 and 3 are my favourite numbers. When I began contemplating that I was gonna turn 37, I started to notice the damn number everywhere, this thread included. Most notably I thoroughly shuffled a deck of 52 oracle cards and drew card #37. The number even showed up just now in a message my Dad wrote while I was typing this post. Make of that what you will.

Steven Richards was born in Australia ?

Nope, he's NZ born. The one not suiting the title of the list is Fabian, born in the UK.

On the one hand, in his last days it sounded like he'd half given up on life already - not bathing a lot, letting his hair and beard get dishevelled. The first supposed suicide attempt may have been an attempt to get out of the cell he hated, only to find that the suicide watch cell was another kind of hell.

But if he was truly suicidal then the cameras didn't need to have their timely malfunction.

That's bigoted remark mate....we can do better than that

Well, I'm dragging up the news story about his apparent hypocrisy because it's funny. If I laughed at Christians purely because they were Christian then that would be bigoted. But no, I only laugh at the outspoken ones who act high and mighty and yet really don't 'love thy neighbour' etc. when the religion they're pushing tells them to.

See also musician David Ellefson who became a pastor, and now caught being unfaithful to his wife by way of an explicit video chat with a teen. It's like he's been selling a product that doesn't work.

I thought the thread might mean he was back to being a poster boy for gay rugby.

Your link isn't working as it's missing the question mark after "watch" for some reason.

Based on those years, perhaps the start of quali race 2 at Sandown in 2016 was an early sign of their future magnetism. Mostert got a terrible start, put wheels in the dirt after turn 1 and when he came back on, James Moffat gave him a wide berth and bumped Waters off in the process.

Do we know what 'Karma' is and how do we get/give it?

Transmitting good or bad vibes to people for their next life I guess. Looks like you can make someone's number go up or down by clicking the applaud / smite underneath their Karma score.
