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........

    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

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
