Competition To Find Aussie PM's Email Address
Internet Ninja writes "While we can all send anti-war emails to 'president' of the USA and even the Australian opposition, nobody can email the Prime Minister of Australia. So the opposition party started a competition to track it down as reported in Australias Sydney Morning Herald."
It Soviet Russia, Prime Minister's email address finds you!
Ya, email will stop America from doing what needs to be done. You fucking hippies need to get a clue...
Someone there thinks sneakers are sexy. Woohoo, halt the presses.
Anyhow. Ok, I know it's humor and all that, but what's the big deal? Not like he's actually reading it before it gets screened anyway, right? Some poor secretary in his cabinet is gonna get inundated with penis enlargers, firmer breasts, money making scams and of course, $$$FREE MONEY$$$$$*.
I can ponder a guess though:

Seatbelts won't be the only things taken off once the pilot on Naked-Air switches off the sign.
Passengers aboard a May 3 chartered Boeing 727-200 flight from Miami to Cancun, Mexico, dubbed "Naked-Air", will be allowed to get their kit off and move around the cabin au naturel once the plane reaches cruising altitude, Reuters reports.
Castaways Travel, a Houston-based travel agency which specialises in "clothing-optional trips", is offering what it bills as the world's first all-nude flight, for $US499 ($840) return.
Though mile-high club antics are barred on the flight, the possibility of encountering turbulence during the flight could make for some compromising stumbles.
Now I'd love to get a seat on that flight...

John Howard is a scrawny old closet white supremist. Assasinate the fucker. He's just a puppet of Bush and a minion of the GLOBAL TERROR STATE.
What's with the sudden upsurge of Australian related stories? And people say slashdot is too US-centric. bah!
Why not fork?
There's plenty of bias here. If you don't like it, visit a site with more competent and mature staff. Slashdot routinely expresses its hatred for certain countries based on technological issues that they then apply to the population as a whole.
Whoops. I actually suggested a good idea there, sorry about that. Keep visiting Slashdot. I'm sure it'll the administration will mod my comment out of, or even delete it, like they have with a number of posts in the past. At least they're smart enough to know that their karma system is so broken that even they abuse it themselves.
Goddammit. I am European and vehemently oppose the current American policies like the new pro-active/pre-emptive/whatever foreign policy, the war on drugs and the war on terrorism, but even I am getting tired of the low-brow anti-Americanism that seems to be rampant these days. This flamebait of an article is a perfect example of the kind of hysterical and irrational "political awareness" of a mob that has been whipped up into a feeding frenzy by our politicos only to improve their status.
Yeah. We disagree with the USA on many fronts, but we have a lot more in common. GWB's election might not have been the most glorious day in the history of the democracy but nevertheless the man was elected fairly according to the laws and accepted customs of the land. He might not be the smartest or the most diplomatic president the USA ever has had, but he is still the president of a sovereign and friendly country and we should respect at least the office if not the man.
If you want to change things, chanting anti-American slogans is not a good way to do it. Whipping up the anti-American sentiment is just counterproductive, populistic and naive.
The owls are not what they seem
He is a back to the 50's "all the way with LBJ (whoever he/she/it is)".
Don't mistake me. He is as quick as a snake on a hot plate and has less scruples. He just doesn't get modern media (look at Australian media laws...). He does get the current situation however and he wants cheap petrol to keep the people happy, which will be 100% effective if he can manage it.
Cuiusvis hominis est errare; nullius nisi insipientis in errore perseverare.
Is that legal in Australia?! Ohh... wait... maybe they mean Coca-*Cola*... Nevermind.
Comic predicts Bush will declare war on Iraq via SMS messaging!!! Giving the recent story on SMS messaging, I don't know if that's a good idea.
Other headlines on that page:
Man, sometimes America can seem quite boring in comparison...
Well observed. Although you did just turn a sexy image into a waking nightmare. Crack-sweat on the seats.... Uuugh...

I can assure you that it's not a nude beach today!
And factor in a hell of a windchill. I certainly wouldn't want drifting snow in my exposed areas!
I don't care if they let you wear Depends, *I* am not sitting in that seat afterwards!
The US has reportedly launched a military and intelligence effort to track down and possibly kill Saddam Hussein.
The plans emerged as the chief UN weapons inspectors ended two days of talks in Baghdad, during which they again urged Iraq to co-operate with their disarmament efforts.
USA Today newspaper said US special forces, CIA paramilitary units, satellite imagery, radio intercepts and airborne reconnaissance are all being used in the operation against Saddam.
After reading Slashdot, the CIA has also said that anyone who does discover the location of Saddam will receive a typical computer geek's prize of a case of Coke and $100 of Linux merchandise.

One line blog. I hear that they're called Twitters now.
Like others, I'm tired of logging onto /. and not being able to read the stories that are posted.
Since /. itself doesn't seem to want to do anything about the /. effect, it's up to all of us to do what we can in order to make sure we can all enjoy these stories.
IN SOVIET RUSSIA, sig changes you!
Wow. How absolutely and totally unfunny can you get? Slashdot and the Slashbots are so extremely easy to poke fun at, yet the fark.com morons fail miserably.
Ha ha. Ackbar. It's a trap. Geeks don't get laid. LOLOLOLLOLOL!!!!
Oh come on, it's pretty amusing. Get over yourself. Unless of course you are a virgin?

While we can all send anti-war emails to 'president' of the USA...
I shall take this moment to send an email to our president thanking him for the courage, in the face of opposition, to stand up for freedom of not only this country, but the freedom of the oppressed in other countries as well. But I guess you'd call that a pro-war email. Never forget those who died for freedom. Whether they be soldiers in the middle east, or an average Todd on a captive airliner.

The above post is the exact reason why I submitted this photoshop idea to Fark.

Thanks for the link. Great humor, and I love the moderator war. Fun Read.
My only regret, despite winning only 11 votes, is that I used a screencap from MSIE in Adobe Photoshop. Only now, in this late hour, do I realize my folly -- I should have used Konqueror and the GIMP. Perhaps three people reading the photoshop thread would have understood -- I could've been up to a whole 14 votes.
