That's kinda hard for a doggie to do but I'll give it a whirl. Maybe I should practice, though.

Practice on the plane. That always is welcomed by flight crews.

Just don't say that in front of a Yiddish speaker.

Right now, I'm logging off my computer and getting ready to get on a train to Chicago to see the opening of the Joffrey Ballet's '09-'10 season. This week, Othello.

I may not be around much this weekend...

Hope he's ok.

Newest news: turns out he was in a box in the attic, all along. Yay!!

a) Only if you haven't touched any of the Aussie booze on the plane

b) No. But daylight savings has just kicked in, so no-one else will either
(because of the size of Australia, and its relative closeness to the equator in its northern bits, only the southern states even have daylight savings, which means we always end up with far more time zones than usual)

c) "Oi, mate, where's the dunny?"

Okaaaaayyy .... so maybe they don't speak English after all!

Unless VR has been reading phrase books, I bet he hadn't thought to say THAT!

See? Always ask a native!

And watch out for the dropbears

badgoodDeb · 10-15-2009, 07:27 PM

Ummm ... dropbears? Do they hang around in the rafters of the outhouse ... and then drop on the back of your head??

zelda_pinwheel · 10-15-2009, 07:32 PM

monty python was thinking of dropbears when they penned the immortal words, "look at tha BONES !!!"

badgoodDeb · 10-15-2009, 07:42 PM

oh. sorry, i'm not a pythoner. (i'll go stand in the corner, if that means i've been a bad girl.)

nomesque · 10-15-2009, 07:44 PM

Carnivorous koalas. Drop out of trees onto people's heads and bite them. No one's ever caught or, for that matter, photographed one - which just proves that they're very sneaky and good at pretending to be normal vegetarian koalas by day (not hard, really, sleep a lot and don't show your teeth...)

badgoodDeb · 10-15-2009, 07:47 PM

Ohhhh. And look so cute, too. Yeah, that's a good hiding technique!

Well, I assume you've packed your suction-cup boots, ya silly bugger.

Will I know what time it is?

Sure! It's Happy Hour! (It's always Happy Hour. Can I get you a drink?)

Well, we Aussies prefer to just sit around in pools of our own effluent, but you can probably use that schooner glass once you're finished with it.

Cheers,
Marc (Now annoyed that our "wide, brown land" means he won't meet VR)

i felt the same way when he was somewhere north of me (amsterdam ? one of those scandinavian countries ? i forget.), not *that* far, but still *too* far.
