  1. Can't work my wife out. First she says "Sure! Get yourself a tattoo." Now she's whining about the bagpipers in the garden.
  2. Oh, none at all. A good mafia boss outsources their violence.
  3. And that's one reason we like to visit the sunshine state at this time of the year. Tee shirts n shorts!
  4. Have been visiting the extended family. Well at least those around SEQ. Really enjoying catching up with all. Especially the younger ones. Last night we booked in to a Gold Coast hotel for a rest. In spite of my general dislike for this part of the world, it is nice to wake up to the sound of surf on a beach.
  5. So, that takes care of fresh air circulation. But how do they get rid of bathroom steam? We sealed up our house but then cut a hole in each bathroom wall, for the exhaust fans .
  6. When I hurl a brickbat, I do it in the nicest possible way.
  7. There's just two things I hate.... 1. The way things are 2. Change
  8. Problem solved
  9. You'll never never know if you never never go.......
  10. Randomly, this might explain our significance in world politics.... To the global cats we are but a ball of twine
  11. Nah, he just edited out all his keyboard errors.
  12. That's Wolfie dialect. Thought you'd figure it out. Well she did say Drunk AGAIN, didn't she.
  13. As I was creeping into bed, she asked, "You are drunk again, aren't you!". "What makes you think that?", I asked defensively. "You live nest door."
  14. See how easily a well intentioned comment can lead to an international crisis! To misquote a well known (ex) president.... "The bombing will begin after lunchtime"
  15. ? ? ? Gee I wish I were that poor. Sport was once all about fitness, friendly competition and fair play. And stadiums were not needed because the only audiences were family & friends of the participants. In this age of obesity, real sport (without focus on gambling or money) would be a great idea for all instead of just watching.
  16. When did the idea originate that sport stadiums should be paid for by the public and then given to team owners?
  17. The lerning curve might be painful. But the alternative is to pay the houly rate for your mechanic to go through the same learning curve. In my experience, good mechanics hate electrical problems and charge accordingly (accidental pun).
  18. Not even by Marty
  19. At present I sail on D'Entrecasteau Channel, adjacent to Bruny Island. But in spite of the names, it hasn't been claimed by the French.
  20. I'm confused. are you suggesting the frog knew that Cook had already planted his flag? Maybe his mission was not one of flag planting (claiming territory). Did he get a satphone call from the consulate? I rather thought that communication from parent countries was by letters carried on sailing ships.
  21. "English is what happens when Vikings learn Latin and use it to shout at Germans, and then the French shout back!"
  22. Did you know.... If you spell Absolutely Nothing backwards, you get.... "Gnighton Yletulosba", which means....... Absolutely Nothing!
  23. My wife once told me, "Sex is more fun on holidays". It wasn't the best postcard I've ever received
  24. The thread is devoted to 'God Elp Amerika' but no evidence suggests god is helping at all. Unless god thinks the world might be better off without the US part of america
