So are we talking about the progeny being BBO's head and torso joined to an alpaca's arse? Or is it the head and forelegs of the alpaca joined to BBO's arse?

Both are beyond my imagination!

Most of Bitter's comments are rather unique, Shadow. However, when Bitter has had a few to many Shiraz's to forget the lacklustre on-field product on game day, he starts talking about the lads' lineage. That is when he looses me. Apparently it all traces back to an albino alpaca named Sven.

Careful how you modify the word 'loose' Maple. Over here it might mean something different from what you are used to.

i think better categorised as failed animal husbandry experiments, bj.

so who knows what bbo's intended outcomes were. he probably doesn't either

I changed my wording on my previous post, Mr. Shadow. Is it more Aussie-friendly now?

just for bbo - a teacher story

--------------------------------------------

A teacher was reading the story of the Three Little Pigs to her class.

She came to the part of the story where first pig was trying to
Gather the building materials for his home.

She read. 'And so the pig went up to the man with the wheelbarrow full

Of straw and said: 'Pardon me sir, but may I have some of that straw to
Build my house?'

The teacher paused then asked the class: 'And what do you think the man

Said?'

One little boy raised his hand and said very matter-of-factly...
'I think the man would have said - 'Well, [censored] me!! A talking pig!'

The teacher had to leave the room.

Bah!! Not much of a story. An enlightened educator like myself would have given the little rotter a jolly good thrashing.

Not sure what happened there dc bloody iPad.

I said I had just poured my first JW Black and the combination with your joke had improved my evening no end.

If you're out there RL, try convincing the ship's captain to change course and steer towards Dominica. You might just catch the end of the First Test with the Aussies headed for victory. If all of the passengers and crew head for the ground at Roseau, the attendance should be quadrupled.

Well Jizz I wouldn't want to cramp your style with the young heifers.

Spent the last hour on my desk top

How much better is this than a bloody iPad?

Just finished my second G and T perhaps that is the reason.

A man of obvious good taste

Enjoying a Gramps Shiraz after an early bike ride around Box hill, Collingwood, Ashburton today followed by good win for the Scorps this arvo. Seems like Gramps is a wine made / named for Old Dee!

Bj how many kilometres on this bike ride? BoxHill to Collingwood is enough but then out to Ashburton? Is this on bike trails? I did the Merri Creek bike trail to Coburg Lake then back down the Upfield line and home this morning myself. Stopped in at the East Timor Coffee House in Brunswick for breakfast on the way. Great coffee and food and undid all the exercise of course.

Earl, look at it this way...the bike ride resulted in a 'free' breakfast.

Well yes calorie neutral perhaps Maple. It still cost me $40 for two but some of the proceeds go to Timor Leste. This place has a great story, some Australian peace keepers who went to East Timor to secure the peace after the Indonesian withdrawal in the early 2000's were travelling up in the highlands and stumbled across locals in a valley full of centuries old coffee plantations being paid zilch or their crops. The Aussies decided to purchase a few hundred kilos of beans for a fair market price and sent them back home to start the East Timor Coffee House. Since then they have paid fair prices and put money back into the local community. Highly recommend a visit and the coffee is as good as it gets, better than anything in Fitzroy by the way.

I do like my coffee, Earl. I'll have to check the place out the next time I'm n the area.
