[LINK] why calm, rational thought is required....

[Adam Todd]

My wife came out last night and said "Did you see The Code tonight"

I said no.  Apparently its some Aussie Reality Police TV show.

Anyway, apparently the Cop Sqaud was called out to stake out a building 
where someone in the building across the road or such had seen a females 
legs tied up on the lounge in a flat across the way.  Apparently you can 
only see the legs the rest of the body was obscured by a curtain.

After much debate, so I'm told, the Police were trying to work out do they 
go in, smash the door down or wait.

Anyway, turns out the legs were of a mannequin, that had been dressed up 
and bound.  Go figure.


Then there is my father who has no contact with me at all and still rings 
the police every week or so, and the mental hospital and the Department of 
Community services and the Workcover Solicitors.

Strangely they re al fed up with his calls and want him to go away.

So some people really have way too much time on their hands and instead of 
being supportive and productive members of the community , use the time of 
those doing their jobs and trying to make something of their lives for 
their own entertainment.  I guess for a pensioner it's cheap entertainment.

As you say Fred, if don't like it, don't look!
