Well ..no. I'm figuring the hipster bosom would be a tad sweaty from bike riding or jogging the tan, so Earl's sheilas will get really excited over the manly odour  of a randy alpaca who has just stomped a fox to death.

uncle, were those your lads in the aami alpaca ad who managed to scare the sheila into disrobing? the occupants of the car seemed to be earl and conchita but i'm not sure.

Dear Uncle, I notice that Basil Rathbone features as a Favourite! Would you like to comment on the esoteric and after hours activities of Prince Albert V around the turn of the Century, given you are a Historian of Note?!!

A man walks into a restaurant with a full-grown ostrich behind him. The waitress asks for their orders. The man says, "A hamburger, fries, and a coke," and turns to the ostrich, "What's yours?"

"I'll have the same," says the ostrich. 

A short time later the waitress returns with the order.

"That will be $9.40 please," and the man reaches into his pocket and pulls out the exact change for payment.

The next day, the man and the ostrich come again and the man says, "A hamburger, fries, and a coke."

The ostrich says, "I'll have the same."

Again the man reaches into his pocket and pays with exact change. This becomes routine until, the two enter again.

"The usual?" asks the waitress.

"No, this is Friday night, so I will have a steak, baked potato, and salad, says he man 

"Same," says the ostrich.

Shortly the waitress brings the order and says, "That will be $32.62."

Once again the man pulls the exact change out of his pocket and places it on the table. The waitress can't hold back her curiosity any longer.

"Excuse me, sir. How do you manage to always come up with the exact change out of your pocket every time?"

"Well," says the man, "several years ago I was cleaning the attic and found an old lamp. When I rubbed it a Genie appeared and offered me two wishes. My first wish was that if I ever had to pay for anything, I would just put my hand in my pocket and the right amount of money would always be there."

"That's brilliant!" says the waitress... "Most people would wish for a million dollars or something, but you'll always be as rich as you want for as long as you live!"

"That's right. Whether it's a gallon of milk or a Rolls Royce, the exact money is always there," says the man.

The waitress asks, "But, sir, what's with the ostrich?"

The man sighs, pauses, and answers, "My second wish was for a tall chick with long legs who agrees with everything I say."

arhh picket ! Like all lunatics you sometimes hit the mark! I must say I have no particular interest in Prince Albert. However, I'll admit there is much speculation about his nocturnal activities.

As to Basil - my interest in him stems from his wonderful portrayal of the great detective. The films were largely inaccurate but Rathbone fit the Sherlock character better than any other.

In fact I have quite a collection of Basil Rathbone memorabilia!

Now here's a dark secret just for you picket. One of my many fantasies was to be a rich factory/sweathouse owner in the Victorian era. 

Make of that what you will!!

Now then adc, I'm going to insist that you present yourself to Stuie for a spanking!!

Your "humour" is unwelcome on this intellectual thread as it is clearly degrading to the fair sex. I'm sure righteous posters such as ..... dc ... well perhaps not dc . Maybe Biffen ... (no he runs a brothel) ...

Well anyway it will offend someone.

In any event singling out ostriches in a derogatory comparison to the fair sex is also patently unfair. The Society for the Protection of Ostriches will be after you.

Actually I believe our Green voter maybe offended. Sort it out with him!

America de Cali's joke seems to have evoked the Bitter one into a state of intellectual revolt.

His 19thC Textile factory wistfulness plays out in his every day life you see.

He will not be told how many children to make a bale of yarn or a yard of cotton .He knows exactly the Haberdashing Industries  and associated perks as well as  a good Horse trainer knows how to Rodger sense into a dull stable hand.

well for starters if the Greens .."A Person ( of no particular persuasion ) ambles along. unfortunately unknown to this person was an unfinished, unsigned and unbarricaded  obstacle , as obviously , without needing announcement , left behind because of ambivalent social doctrines.

Interesting is it not that Green is used for  'back screens' because it actually represent NOTHING on the spectrum

A young guy, lets call him Biffo, was hired for the construction site, and the foreman thought he'd better keep an eye on him, he didn't look all that bright.

As the morning's work went on, he noticed that about half the time, when the fellow took a nail out of his pouch, he'd throw it on the ground with a frustrated look.

Interested, the foreman picked up a few of the nails the guy had thrown away...they were fine, nothing wrong with them. So he said, "Why are you throwing away half of your nails?" And the young guy said, "The heads are on the wrong end!"

The foreman said, "You idiot, just save them for the other side of the house!"

It has been a sad week with the passing of Lady Susan Renouf, the doyen of Melbourne Society. Of course I attended the farewell with the rest of the who is who of Melbourne society. It was great to catch up with my old University chums Andy Peacock, Bluey Walker, Bobby Doyle and Micky Kroger. And the cream of Melbourne's matrons were there of course to pay their respects

It was a marvellous farewell at Saint Andrews Church in Brighton and later on at the reception, well at least until the congenial atmosphere was somewhat sullied by the appearance of an unlikely character who I observed scoffing the canapés, sculling the bubbly and touching up some of the matrons, one of whom shrieked "what are you doing here DC?"

come to think of it, i did notice a shady character hanging around the fringes with a fake cuban accent chatting up some society nob trying to sell him a guava paste franchise. The poorly fitted rug had me fooled at the time. and i must say i far preferred the canapes at the mont albert ladies tennis club.

I don't want to have to spend time with BBO and his loose lifestyle. Then I will be totally led astray. I could end up drinking shots for breakfast and sleeping in a bed with 3 others.

Give BBO a ring, he can help you. He has had years of counselling and could pass on many good tips.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea
