Bugged Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 In the whole scheme of things, I realize that perhaps I know very little about Australians. <font size = 0>(I mean, really, the closest I've come to interacting with a real one is on the net.)</font size> But I gotta say, so far, from what I do know, I like 'em. *stands tall, with shoulders back, chin up* That's right... I said it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoat Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 I happen to know a couple personally. Nice enough folks, the lot of them. Not all that bright, though. Fits the stereotype perfectly. Mr. Radley. Do I owe you a turn? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See, now, if the recruitment officer would have used that line on me when I was 18, I just may have enlisted.

Lars Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 In a strange twist of fate, the gods had their revenge on me this weekend. See, I had the crazy Frenchman Xyphorus over for the weekend, and he absolutely insisted on watching the World Cup match between the US and Italy. Apparently, the US got jobbed out of a goal. But all I recall is seeing the graphic, "No team has ever scored with 9 men" at about the 45 minute mark and wondering, "Well, why in the hell are we watching this again?" In other news, Papa Kahn has a girlfriend, Papa Kahn has a girlfriend…{snicker}… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think everyone deserves a little romance in their life, and since the poor girl has lost her senses of sight, touch, smell, taste and hearing perhaps she'll gain some pleasure from his company. Of course if any of them come BACK she'll be in for a rough time ... on the other hand a "little" romance is all she'll have lost so ...

Boo Radley Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 Originally posted by stoat: Mr. Radley. Do I owe you a turn? Does the Pope wear a tall hat? Wait... I should probably just say, "Yes, you do.", otherwise you'll just get all confused and mention the little white beany he wears occasionally (Even though he only wears that when he's off to umpire a ballgame) and a confused stoat is not something any of us care to see. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nidan1 Posted June 19, 2006 Share Posted June 19, 2006 I really think it is a sad state of affairs that the only interesting discourse being conducted on this forum is in this thread, and in the previous MBT incarnations from earlier this year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
