  1. Flatulators, you mean....
  2. Miller was the censored one. Henry was an early version of men like Prince Andrew...though his 'conquests' were of legal age. Good old Patrick just wrote weird but very compelling stuff and, like writers as Dostoevsky, I'm so in awe of the power of their work that I don't get around to analysing their 'domestic politics'. Never had time for Warhol. immortalising cans of soup is for me just a faddish thing. Had and still have much more time for Lou Reed.
  3. Heller, Nietzsche got a gig in those days, Henry Miller, and some Australians started reading Patrick White... Then there were the Stones at Kooyong, and Sunbury...
  4. Seven. Missed geelong score,nominated Green as captain just as I realised it was james McDonald...
  5. Even better, he'd make Mexico pay for it. Swell operator, the Pres of the USA...
  6. I work in the wine Business. I used to live in the parish of Boomanoomana just up the road from you on the NSW side towards Barooga. Look up Beechworth Wine Estates, the owner has an accountancy practice in Wang, and check out Baileys, Mayford, and never underestimate Brown Bros from your region. Also, Tahbilk and Mitchelton make good booze, and look out for anything from Coriole, order some Linke Shiraz through Nicks, just for starters....
  7. Would never have happened under Norm Smith.
  8. His AFl stats are very underwhelming, Binman. He sounds like a player who'll play a brilliant game and have many so so days.
  9. Have you got everything, Rufus? Haven't had any complaints yet..
  10. Love this man. He's the paradigm for a man on a mission to get the most out of his one crack at being the very best he can be.
  11. Plus two boiled eggs...make that three boiled eggs
  12. I'm looking forward to Burgess. I completely fail to understand all the Misson bashing. It's a symptom of the scapegoat mentality which gets nobody anywhere.
  13. Yours in Molar rack and ruin...Apologies if I sounded stern and moralistic...
  14. Hey, Rab, some of us lower classes have bad teeth, some of it is in our DNA. I was a regular dentist visitor in Germany when I was five, bin a regular customer ever since. I wouldn't hold a man's molar superstructure against him... Todd Viney was no dental beauty queen either, just for the record.
  15. The paradigm for any contemporary Demon supporter, questionable mental states.
  16. Those pies in the sky are storm clouds. Yes, we need the rain desperately but we don't need another injury-prone list dweller, I don't care how good he was in 2014...
  17. That's Santa Claus territory, yeah, Christmas is coming too...
  18. Neither, just metaphorical.
  19. For the record, I wish Harvey Benell all the very best and if it came pass that he ends up at MFC I'd keep my fingers crossed for him. We all need as many cracks at it as we can get because in the end, life ain't that very fair.To be cursed by so much injury is in itself not fair.
  20. Not into exorcisms, nor am I into miracles. He's played 2 games in five seasons. It sounds like you also believe in the Resurrection?????
  21. This all sounds to me like the mindset of people who are gonna win the 50 million Powerball tonight...
  22. In 2019 we carried Vandenberg and Joel Smith, no games between them. Bennell has played maybe 2 in the last 5 years. Add Kolojashni and that would make 4 potential crocks on top of the 'normal' bout of injuries sustained during a season.
  23. No doubt Bennell can play. But so could Balic, Mitch Clarke, Kolodjashnij, Templeton, Owen, Vardy, Carman, Ellis and a host of other 'stars' we imported so we could park them on our injured list. NO THANK YOU.
  24. It seems he was distracted by bigger things than football in 2018 and I noted he had started 2019 the way he played in 2017. If you recall, he was injured in one of the Pre Season games and when he returned he showed he was stepping back into form, only to be injured again. I loved watching him play from day one and will miss his scintillating opportunism.
