they kid themselves that they are clever and have a view of life that is ...superior.

that there is meaning in their meandering imaginations. 

its a weird kind of pseudo intellectualism when its not pseudo or intellectual. 

mark my words, ernie, one day someone will unearth this thread and write a book about it. it's a gem of a manuscript just waiting to be published

Wolf Creek or Pulp Fiction?

Or maybe that’s the name of the book about the thread.

Pulp Creek has a certain ring to it ...

Well lads the fixture is out tomorrow so that should provoke some serious discussion, or not. 

Rumour that Queen’s Birthday and Anzac Day games will be away games for us. That is not good for our finances.

Do I need to bring my own handcuffs and chains, or will you supply them?

Silly of you to ask Red ( and please ignore the childish humour above) I am the perfect host and all necessary accoutrements for a pleasant evening are provided .

However, a bottle, or two,  of shiraz would be considered a friendly gesture. 

And …. given that you are filthy rich lawyer, who spends far too much time swanning about on cruises,  I would consider a Grange appropriate recompense for my entertainments.

Ernie, would you stop your tiresome carping about this thread.

You are starting to sound like a schoolgirl that's been interfered with.

Consider it done. I know a bloke who does home made wine and I will get you a bottle of his famous “ home on the grange”.???

Now Uncle, is it ever likely or in the realms of possibility that you are able to post without a smutty comment or innuendo. Is your private life completely bereft of beauty and sweetness. 

You do realise Geoffrey that your acting days have passed you by and everyone has tired of the same lines. Your early work was entertaining and amusing but it has become tedious and frankly embarrassingly. Perhaps it’s age or fatigue with living but you seem so half hearted these days. You don’t know whether to hang up your boots or keep trying to run around the park. 

You do sound depressed these days, listless and just hanging on. Or are you now only aching in the places where you used to play?

Well Ernie …………… as they say in the classics.... " beauty is in the eye of the whip holder"

Fortunately Uncle tastes differ so beauty is not in the eye of the whip holder.

Otherwise it would be like standing in human faeces and thinking that it is beautiful.

Enterococcus Faecalis and Bactericides Fragilis say hello, and respectfully beg to differ.

It’s probably about perspective in the end.

Lighten up Ernie!

When it all comes down to it we are kindred spirits. Same boat -  being tossed around on the same meaningless sea of life.

How very philosophical.

From my perspective I attain meaning from the realisation that I am far superior to dreary old [censored] like you and Ernie.

I wouldn't like to marooned on a desert island with any of you. Maybe Ernie, at least he could write...

To diverge.

On a research trip to WA 

Beer wine food and tourist infrastructure not Dockers Eagles or Hogans, have just experienced the Albany whaling station. Only recently abandoned and restored as tourist attraction.

The harpoonist is the Skipper and was able to despatch the whale with an accurate delivery under what must have been quite arduous conditions.

Just made me reflect on the same philosophical metaphor.

 

Difficult to reflect on football draw related issues as the WA media cannot report on any issues outside the overwhelming significance of the Dockers and Eagles.

Fascinating

Oh, I see, just disappointing.

Up here in the home of the Gold Coast Suns for a short break. Haven’t seen a single siting of any GC Suns colours, either in the shops, or on any of the holidaymakers. That is a little unusual .

Not at all. Have you seen the state of BBO’s manor or tasted his wife’s cooking?
