They say penicillin cures Sisyphus these days. 

Anyway, the stories of Syphilis flying too close to the sun are apocryphal.

Personally, I try to leave no turn unstoned.  Happy Birthday to Keith BTW, a young 76 today and doesn't look a day over 90.

Hes put in a solid couple of weeks training.  He should head back to WA for the holidays and let his hair down.  

Hit the bars and clubs and show them your still king of Perth, Harley!

Hogan: (thinks) that sounds like a challenge!

He’s being well advised IMO. This is his last chance to turn his career around and make a decent living from the sport. A return to WA and a single poor decision could mean that it’s all over.

Maybe he is not being advised. Maybe he can make his own decisions, because, well, ,you know,  he knows where his career is at.

Opportunities can work two ways, positive and negative. Giving yourself every opportunity to succeed is one way. Removing the opportunity to [censored] up is another.

Bubona is the Roman cow Goddess who watches over and protects cattle.

Does she protect calves too?

 

Seriously though, this seems to be an indicator of his desire to leave no stone unturned - IF the fatted (or unfettered) calf comes to fruition then we could have unearthed a gem at little cost.

Not quite sure how my post morphed into what your post quoted mine as saying?

I'm starting to see the synergy. Hedonism at its most extreme.

The cave of the Golden calf was a famous night club in Pre World war 1 London .

"The Cave of the Golden Calf was a night club in London. In existence for only two years immediately before the First World War, it epitomised decadence, and still inspires cultural events. Its name is a reference to the Golden Calf of the Biblical story, an icon of impermissible worship."

"The building became a post office and can be seen in the background of the cover of David Bowie's album The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars"

Absolutely loving the journey this thread is going on. I've never ever resorted to Dr Google so many times in a 2 page thread.

I know as the saying goes that you make your own, but surely we are due a bit of luck for something to turn out all right for once.

YES!

Can we somehow work the Illuminati into this... or does that only apply if we were to recruit Mason Cox without having to pay anything for him.

I googled the golden calf and illuminati together and it took me to some very strange places.

Could we save the Dees by writing  a new Dan Brown like novel?

In Hollywood you can hit it big by registering story lines for movies.. don't even have to write much........

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
