    OK Fess up, you convicts

    I'm saying nothing, Bob

    I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food

    A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking

    Scroll down past the gibberish, I don't know how to get rid of it. There is a list of names there. Bob

    Saw some relatives of a few modern day crooks ... Bond Brown Bryant A lot of the Jones family, 8 of them, but no Alan Palmer

    Kelly, Thomas was that Ned's dad?

    No relatives I could see, but SA was the only state not settled by convicts... Understandable

    The first Fleet, Wikipedia gives a good description of each ship, & passengers names, plus crimes of the convicts. Follow the links, Bob

    Be proud.
    A society that transported people for stealing food when they were hungry had a lot of problems. Just proves the whole idea of deterring crime by imposing extreme punishments doesn't work.
    I could say more, but I don't want to get political.
