    Ever since I've been exiled in Townsville, since May this year, I've been
    keeping a look out for leathers - at Cash Converters, Vinnies, LifeLine and
    the Salvos. Nobody seems to wear them up here.
    Today was the day.
    SWMBO sent me back to town and the Salvos new store to pick up something
    she'd seen yesterday. And there it was - a two piece tan leather set of
    leathers - obviously lovingly used, been down the road once on one elbow.
    Perfect fit. Made in Australia. E Weiden, 349 Elizabeth St, Melbourne. Phone
    60 1016. Don't suppose they're there any more.
    I'm not complaining but - I thought $30 was a good buy.

    I tried it and it took less than 1 hr from an aus.moto post until I copped a
    "Microsoft latest patch".

    : why would you put your real email addy and phone number on the net for
    : **** sake?
    :
    a) I'm lonely

    b) I try not to make too many enemas

    c) Apart from riding a CX500 I try not to make outrageous statements

    d) I have nothing to fear

    e) I know how to use the <delete> key on my computer

    f) I know how to set up mail filtering rules

    g) Ring me all you like - it'll cost you STD long distance (unless you live
    in Townsville) hi Doug !

    h) I don't care

    i) for the sake of a **** I'd do most anything - if I could remember what
    it is and/or how to do it ...

    j) I know I'm not as biggus you - in fact I lost mine, just after it went
    rusty

    k) I don't havea cone head

    l) Clem who ?

    A file that big?
    It might be very useful.
    But now it is gone

    My hotmail address is perfect for that. People can still contact me og, but
    its spam filter removes things like "latest Microsoft patch". No one gets my
    ISP email but family and friends.

    I have around fifty-ish email addresses. At last count, some
    6 or 8 actual email accounts (work, home, other home, home,
    yet another home, blah...) and several dozen aliases pointing
    at some of those.

    When Roland Rolladoor from Roland Rolladoor's Rolladoors
    wants to send me an email, I say "Sure Roland, my email
    address is ,
    go for your life".

    Then I rush off to http://www.ulimit.com/en and whip up a
    special email alias just for him that bounces his email to
    a real account.

    When I'm tired of Roland, or when he sells my address to
    all his business partners, I just delete him. Problem
    solved.

    Makes it very easy to figure out who to hunt down and kill
    when someone sells your address to marketeers too! :)


    Most people think Ansett Australia is dead. I'm here to
    tell you that they're alive and well and selling customer
    names, addresses and email addresses like they're going
    out of fashion!

    Did something happen there? I could see there was a response but my you
    beaut "smartarse filter" must have wiped the text.

    In fact I haven't seen too much text in aus.moto since I had it installed...

    ;)

    Yep; that's excellent buying! (Even if you only wear them three times and
    then park them in the "too-hot" basket!)
