Actually the list reads somefink like...

Toad, pillock, unwanted step child, nong, dipsh*t, baffoon...

Thurs AM, conversation with a client:

(Thought, but not spoken in italics)

Client: "Hi Bob, you know those three images I wanted you to e-mail the illustrator?"

Boo: "Sure, just finished shooting, downloading, converting and sending them off, you gap-toothed hillbilly."

Client: "Well, you're going to find this funny..."

Boo: Wanna bet?

Client: "Well, I told you that the group shots would be OK and she could just outline what she wanted. Well, I guess I was wrong..."

Boo: Do tell, Moron-Boy.

Client: "She needs them as separate images."

Boo: "No problem Dolt, I anticipated something like that Because I've worked for blithering pin-heads like you for almost 30 years., so I went ahead and shot the veg. brush, deluxe oven brush and the yellow squeegee in separate shots."Got you right between the eyes, Einstein.

Client: "Oh...you shot the yellow squeegee, huh?"

Boo: Oh, here we go... "I'm sorry, something wrong with that?"

Client: "I was kind of hoping you'd shoot the blue."

Boo: There's six colors and you "hoped" I'd pick the blue? Do you play the ponies, lab partner, because you really like the long shots, don't you. I'm so damn sorry that my Uri Gellar-like mental powers failed me this time and I wasn't able to peer into that dried up raisin of a brain of yours and ascertain which of the possible six colors you might choose. Let's play another guessing game! Guess which finger I'm rapidly jamming in the direction of the receiver right now, Jethro.

"Once agaiin, no problem. I'll just Photoshop the color in."

Client: "Thanks, Bob. I hate to be a bother."

Boo: "Oh, you're no bother, Git."

Client: "What?"

Boo: "I said I'd get right on it."

Client: "...Oh...OK."

Are you still having fun at work Boo? You really need to stop enjoying your job so much.

Well, back to work on my image of an evil satanic pink ceramic piggy bank with wee beady eyes and a pink bow on top of its stupid head and ugly flowers painted all over it. Ughhhh!

Well, you're just working on the image. I've got an 18 inch tall, evil, satanic pink ceramic piggy bank dressed in a golf outfit sitting in my living room.

Funny thing is, you don't even really 'see' it any more, after a while.

I've got to get friends to stop giving me every hideous thing in the Multiverse.

Oh how I hate that evil pink piggy bank with its wee beady eyes staring back at me from my monitor.

I think it is laughing at me.

Or maybe the Evil One is just reading over your shoulder (reflecting in the screen, get it? Heh heh, ehhhh...)

Nobody Likes Mike, let me guess, you work for the Department of Kiwi Geography, right? This is getting good, however, as we could have a nice purse fight between their public servants and our public servants. Mace, use the sequined one, won’t you lad.

dalem: . . .who's in favor of rampant socialism, gun control, and reruns of I Love Lucy.
Sorry buddy, I couldn’t let you do that without claiming that you are tramping on my bailiwick.

Now, onto things that Australia has produced that are without par in the known multiverse. Being a good scientist, I’m not going to stoop to the use of mere anecdotal evidence, no sir. I’m going with the favoured client testimonial. As I log more hours in international bound aircraft than most of you shut-ins sleep in a year, I can provide the following list of most requested items from Australia when I am travelling to the Great Satan, middle east or some other far flung hell hole:

Tim Tams

Picnic Bars

Sepoderm (which is ideal for washing sepos)

Lux (usually the yellow but sometimes the white)

Items from Australian Geographic

Tapes of original ABC shows

International Roast (if you have to drink instant, ours seems to be preferred)

6 packs of REAL Australian beer like Boags, Cascade, Carlton Draft,etc, which are not typically allowed for export lest we run out.

Okay, I am sorry I ever brought it up. Please stop. Or as Hiram would say: "SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!"

I can't take anymore of your inance ramblings about consumer products not found outside of your horrid little (metaphorically not geographically) country...So please Seanachi, as much as I hate to say this, another sing-song please. Anything to drown out these damned Aussies...
