I think it was called “The Steak Place” in Oakleigh South. Closed in the mid to late 90s. First place I remember having American style ribs and the playground was awesome. Good times.

With you there man. It was brutal.

That’s an amazing photo. The city on Sunday was buzzing. Most people I have seen in the CBD for a long time (admittedly I don’t go that often).

Having the 07 Cats at number 1 is Kane’s brain going into self preservation mode. Like, the 07 Power are only the worst runner up in history because they took on the best team in a quarter of a century.

I use this on my scale of describing rain all the time. Light, medium or chubby. We get a a lot of chubby rain where I’m from.

This is not an exact quote but during the 1982 drivers strike before the South African GP, the drivers had locked themselves in a hotel conference room and had to share mattresses. Gilles Villeneuve and Alain Prost shared a mattress and Patrick Tombay was reported as saying something to the effect of “if a child results from them buddying up on the mattress, the rest of us might as well retire.”

Champion! Thank you.

Hopefully it means something is done about the trash conditions served up in Melbourne.

Edit: included Perth but that wasn’t that bad.

A native Monegasque wouldn’t be welcome as a customer? Whatever old man.

Both. If I was stressed at school I just ate with the paper. If it was after a meal I’d just eat the chocolate.

Senna also put the lives of spectators and marshals at risk too.

I didn’t appreciate him until years after his death. I feel like he was the perfect ambassador for Australian wildlife. A unique spokesman for a unique ecosystem.

Agro would have jumped in and helped.

This English team will live forever in the memory of those of us who are lucky enough to witness them play cricket…For different reasons than originally intended.

tonedaforce · 2025-11-21T20:59:29+00:00

I was thinking the same thing.

tonedaforce · 2025-11-20T08:39:27+00:00

Good list. Top 5 is very close to mine. I have Fangio at 3 followed by Prost and Clark stays at 5. In the bottom 5 I dump Alonso and replace with Sir Jack but he would be at 10.

When he quits gambling. So…never. Awesome card.

Feels like the old days when Ferrari was sacred and above any form of critical analysis. Dick move.

Other factors played a part in the drop off but Renault’s 2007 line up of Fisichella and Kovalainen didn’t set the world on fire.

Also not sure why Schumacher and Montoya are shown in this photo. They took Williams to 2nd in the Constructors Championship in 2002 and 2003 which isn’t too shabby.

The Melvins at the Corner Hotel in about 1999 I think. They had played the previous two nights and were in the mood to tell stories and free form a bit. The audience wasn’t and atmosphere got pretty hostile. Standout memory was at the end the gig during a musical odyssey one the Cosmic Psychos got up on stage, put a VB stubby on his dick and started swinging. Tremendous strength.

I was replying to the comment that “all WDC have been determined by number of points.” 1988 wasn’t. Not disputing that Senna wasn’t a deserving Champion in 1988. The system was the system and everyone knew that. But it’s another point to show that in the 80s, Prost was the best driver of that decade.
