After a quite decent Bobbie Burns Shiraz I'm enjoying an Irish / Canadian fusion band at the Nicholas pub in Beechworth with lots of Kelly history. There's a framed guernsey signed by The Ox on the wall. Doesn't get much better than this.

Heard today that VCE kids on muck up days had gotten themselves some bad publicity by interfering with chooks, (missed the second species), and alpacas! Now we know Biff has a bit of a thing for Schoolies. But maybe, knowing the location of a flock of randy alpacas, he has gone feral prior to the big events at Lorne, Gold Coast etc. and is in pre-season training while hiding out under the nose of a celeb poster somewhere in the Macedon Shire???

So an Earl and a Republican walk into a bar...... Nope, don't think that'll work. There's no punchline to match that.

...and apparently that's another Groucho Marx quote!

The Groucho Marx quip re clubs and membership also comes to mind.

qui bananamus ferit, bananamus perit

He might never return.

I'm guessing you made a small typo, so let me say on behalf of posters in this thread that we are honoured to have the past President of Coffs Harbour in our midst. Welcome Your Excellency! I guess that makes you Top Banana.

Headline from tomorrow's Romsey Reporter: "Alpaca's clacker cracker sees local bush wackers knackered". I wonder if one of the lads has been named Petracca? That would work nicely.

That's how it was first developed DC - as a treatment for hypertension. But a notable 'side effect' in the initial trials led to it being investigated for erecrile dysfunction. From then on it rocketed away, so to speak.

Wow OD. You are going off the scale! New blood pressure medication working I hope?? But I'm with you on this being the best time of year for us for over a decade now. Take care and don't take too many of those little blue pills at once. Think of Mrs OD (hope that's an OK subject) - she might want the 'off' season to be 'on' for quite a while yet.

I heard that in medical schools they teach: "Abcess makes the fart go 'Honda'"

True Red. Only problem I see with such a cunning plan is that the ones with poor disposal usually have good work ethic, and the ones (one?) with bad work ethic have good disposal.We might need to watch a few more episodes of Blackadder to come up with a more cunning plan. Something that "Is as cunning as a fox what used to be Professor of Cunning at Oxford University but has moved on and is now working for the U.N. at the High Commission of International Cunning Planning".

Aaarrgh. Icon overload....

Think I've discovered the missing link from Ancient Greek times. How did Mark Jackson, Clive Palmer and Donald Trump evolve to their lofty heights? Well, they must have evolved from the same forefather as our own uber-lofty Mr Biffen: They are all descendants of The Great Bifflosopher. Apparently he cornered the market for imported bananas into Athens, apparently by slipping several dodgy drachmas into the right hands of the mods of Athenian society at the time.

The Lads have emailed the Mods, saying they tap the mat and want Bitters out of the barn. They're tired of sleeping with their @rses to the wall.....

Let me ask my other half. Oh no! It's Left.

Reminds me of a poem. 'Here I sit, broken hearted....'

Thanks for that Steve.

If the draft and trade period after the AFL season is the equivalent of finals for fanboy sites like these, perhaps BBO has dropped himself to rest up in advance of the trading frenzy??? Free and North have set the trend and BBO is nothing if not an early adopting trendsetter.

And make a few proclamations while throwing crumbs to the vassals below, Earl?

I couldn't post several smileys due to the cyberworld police. How do you manage it?

So now you've got me wondering R&BB - whether you and dee-luded are really different posters, ....or maybe different sides of the same keyboard??

Doubt it. If Keith Richards can be a buccaneer in tonight's Pirates of the Caribbean, what's stopping you?
