I still don't buy the "official" narrative about 9/11. Oh sure, it happened, fcuk yeah. But who and why and how I'm, not convinced it was what we've been told.

Re: Bribie Island Board Riders
I have actually been there, many decades ago.
Luckily, I was not corralled by any of the seemingly friendly locals and managed to escape unscathed and subsequently to lead a, relatively, normal life, unscared by my experiences. Unlike some others here on realsurf

Tits up Trevor would be a great name for a new Wiggles character, the drunk one. We just need to decide on the skivvy colour.

You should see what shearer wrote in the comments sections of Beachgrit this morning, something about existence being all just emptiness, I nearly called the ambulance for himgodsavethequeen wrote: ↑Sun Nov 26, 2017 10:31 pmHe meant the school bus.

Re: Bribie Island Board Riders
Steve needs a years worth of wonky reefs and semi close out beach breaks to snap him back into cold hard reality.

Re: Bribie Island Board Riders
God Carroll, can you please stop cross-pollinating from one forum to the other. What goes on there is there and what happens here is here.
But it is true. Most of what we understand as reality are merely epiphenomena operating in empty space.
Give Thomas Nagel's book Mind and Cosmos a whirl if you want to see a decent attempt to make sense of mind beyond Darwinian materialism.
Bribie has more than the colonial gothic feel to it, it also has a very strong evanescence of a South Pacific WW2 outpost. The so called Brisbane line, which was the point at which Australia would be defended against an expected invasion from the Japanese was in fact, the Bribie Line.
Fortifications along the Island were built with the purpose of being the front line of defence against a naval invasion.
They were the forts we played in as kids, used as markers for our surf spots. That history seeped into our bones and informed our day to day reality, although we weren't able to put it into context until much later.

Re: Bribie Island Board Riders
It's changing rapidly now though. Bribie is a boom development site.

Re: Bribie Island Board Riders
Fortunately, most of Bribie is national park so it'll be spared the worst of SEQLD over-development.
You can still walk the miles of mile of sand flats on low tide and be alone with your thoughts.

Re: Bribie Island Board Riders
Ive only been to Brisbane twice. Once for work and once when my airplane blew up and I had to spend the night. Thats the closest I've been to Bribie.
Although when I lived in HK I knew a person called Breebie. Does that count?

Re: Bribie Island Board Riders
I was just thinking about airplanes blowing up. We're you flying reconnaissance low over the Board Riders Pointscore ctd and collided with the club historian's drone?
Re: Bribie Island Board Riders
My apostrophes have been all over the shop lately. Maybe I'm getting worse as I grow old, not better. A sobering/intoxicating thought.
