Had my brain MRI yesterday, great crew all round at Pacific Radiology at Southern Cross Hospital.

 

I asked the MRI tech if they found a brain?

 

To which he replied "Yes, but we don't do the scan type here to prove it is functioning."

 

Great comeback!

 

Cost was considerably cheaper than warned beforehand too. πŸ˜€

In the ‘digital age’, I'll drop everything for such tools in the face of Google's practices (i.e. MV3).πŸ˜‰

It's a renewable resource, but it takes time to renew. Especially in the dead of winter, when it takes twice as long. Best to get in early.

There's a limit to the amount of generation that can be fed into the network locally.

No but if it gets like aussie then they will put more restrictions on export limits and require other things that are hostile to getting a good export inorder to prevent them having to spend more on the power network. First in, best dressed.

^ You'll probably also enjoy this one:

 

The Chameleon (party game) - Wikipedia

 

In a nutshell, one player, the Chameleon, misses out on knowing what the topic is whereas the other players will each say a related word.  The Chameleon has to try and 'blend in' by correctly guessing what the topic is so as to not be outed.

 

 

The fun is trying to keep a poker face when everyone starts suspecting the wrong person.
