Mr Burns: Compadres it is imperative that we crush the rebels before the start of the rainy season, and remember a shiny new donkey for anyone who brings me the head of Colonel Montoya.

Smithers: (clears throat)

Mr Burns: (looking startled) and by that I mean its time for the worker of the week award.
Saw this on the Melbourne comedy Gala.

Written on the back of the public toilet door

"I just fucked your mum"

"Dad you're pissed go home"

Been a while since I resented my life and choices I've made. Date is off, why? Simply because I was offered a few hours work on Saturday night and in order for me to continue to keep apace with my bills I've had to accept. Fuck

Ohh and now the action figure

I laughed so hard I almost shat

Con has his nephew from the mainland over to visit him, on his small island home, he takes his nephew up the local mountain and says, see the house's to the west I built them, but they don't call me Con the builder, see those fishing boats to the south well I built them, but they don't call me Con the boat builder, then he say's now look to the west see that dam I filled that up, but they don't call me Con the water bearer, but you FUCK JUST ONE GOAT...!!


A US Air Force C-141 is scheduled to leave Thule Air Base, Greenland at midnight. During the pilot's preflight check, he discovers that the latrine holding tank is still full from the last flight. So a message is sent to the base and an airman who was off duty is called out to take care of it.

The young man finally gets to the air base and makes his way to the aircraft, only to find that the latrine pump truck has been left outdoors and is frozen solid, so he must find another one in the hangar, which takes even more time.

He returns to the aircraft and is less than enthusiastic about what he has to do. Nevertheless, he goes about the pumping job deliberately and carefully (and slowly) so as to not risk criticism later.

As he's leaving the plane, the pilot stops him and says, "Son, your attitude and performance has caused this flight to be late and I'm going to personally see to it that you are not just reprimanded but punished."

Shivering in the cold, his task finished, he takes a deep breath, stands up tall and says, "Sir, with all due respect, I'm not your son; I'm an Airman in the United States Air Force. I've been in Thule, Greenland for 11 months without any leave, and reindeer are beginning to look pretty good to me. I have one stripe; it's two-thirty in the morning, the temperature is 40 degrees below zero and my job here is to pump shit from your aircraft. Now just exactly what form of punishment did you have in mind?"

Ahh the scientific method, advance a hypothesis and after sufficient testing it then becomes a theory
A few more details on AvP. Trying not to get sucked into the hype but damn its hard I've been looking forward to this movie since Dark Horse brought out the first AvP titles

Its funny because its true

Friday, March 19

Mmm first a movie and now a computer game for Rifts lets hope it doesn't suck the way Force Commander did.
Well it appears I've been set up on a blind date by Shadowdan for next Sat. I thought what the hell never been on one and if it sucks I need never go on one again. However given that neither he nor I have ever met this girl. And given that he'll be going out with this girls friend the same night, yes thats right, a double date as well. I'm sort of wondering if I'm taking one for the team so to speak. Well time will tell.

Have a safe drive up our way Greyice I won't be able to catch up with you this time seeing as how I'll be walking through a bloody forest, with a bloody botanist(note to self. If possible date a female botanist for the semester), looking at bloody plants I have no bloody idea how to bloody indentify.

Well I've finished reading Gehenna for Vampire: The Masquerade. I must express my suprise that a new game system is being released in August titled Vampire: The Requim, interesting given that three of the four stories in Gehenna involve the end of all vampires across the world, oh who am I kidding I wasn't suprised at all who in their right mind would let a money spinner like the World of Darkness fade away.

Monday, March 15

Another good day went back to TMW with Greyice sorry to say I was following the speed limit....well kinda :) Lunch with Gator at Mr Quinces. A noble effort by Greyice to use the ancient art of conversation after lunch but thwarted by Gator at the last second by the application of Red Dwarf 4 on DVD. Oh well next time. Good luck on the job front Gator.

Sunday, March 14

Ahh a fine night was had by all, missing in action were Gator and Barb along with my flatmate Holly but she'll be along to the next one, I have no doubt of that.

Quotes of the night

Arthur: Jol pants on

Selsby: Jol pants on

Flock: Well if you play your cards right, you never know your luck(lewd look)

Greyice: Yeah but you are very analytical. Oh fuck I managed that in one go. I NEED more alcohol.


Saturday, March 13

Uncle Jol has arrived. 4 hours and counting :)

Friday, March 12

Give it a try I managed a score of 2 which was a suprise after all the Aikido I've done I figured my switching rate would be higher, oh well lucky I'm doing a science degree

Thursday, March 11

Just got an email from Gator he will be a no show unless someone can change his mind which brings us Flock down to 11. Selsby and Bel are both coming though.
Peter Griffin: Oh honey taking a break is a sin, eating lunch is a sin, beastiality is a sin. I don't know how that came up in the conversation but its true nonetheless.

Why Arthur the way you say swinger, makes it sound all....dirty.....I love it :)
Homer: Lisa the important thing for your mother to do is supress what happened, bury it deep down inside her that way she'll never bother us again.
Just had a chat to Gator he and Barb are a in Gators words "Oh yeah" which in my experience means we may have to go with plan B Blueant, Selsby you know what to do.
Sorry Greyice I would have let you in on plan B but your emotional attachment to the asset to be retrieved may cause you to pause at the critical moment
Flock be grateful we could be having a BBQ in which case it would be likely to snow on us, it is getting to that time of the year up here. Also have you called Gator I tried reaching him on the phone with no success. Or we go with plan B which involves Selsby Blueant and a sturdy length of rope.

Apu: Oh they used nylon rope this time, it feels so smooth against my skin almost sensual.
The schedule is indeed sorted out Arthur fortunately you will require no appointment to come up and see us :)

Wednesday, March 10

Ohhh look AVP trailer

Thought: Blueant and Sara?
Thinking about a conversation Flock and I had last night I think this is kind of appropriate.

Grandpa: Homer never argued, he instantly folded over anything, it was if he had no will of his own, isn't that right?

Homer: Yes dad
Flock we can cross Rosanna off the list shes headed home to Maitland on the weekend I'll ask Brendan if hes still coming. Also Kellie is going to ask Al today but she wasn't sure if he was free for the weekend

Tuesday, March 9

I can see this getting advertised

Well well I go offline for a few days and everything changes.

Gator I really really hope you have thought this through.

Greyice change of plans in all likelyhood I will be in Arm on the Sat.

Flock I didn't realise Selsby was coming up on the same day are you thinking what I'm thinking. Also we may have one more as I think it would impolite to invite Kellie and not her new b/f Al.

What do I know of Al, not much I've met him twice hes a ranger for NPWS I'd guesstimate he's in his late 30s early 40s. Thats about it I'm afraid more details as I pry them out of him.

Also for those who are coming up our way, at the present moment in time in Arm its about 29 degrees and TMW was a balmy 35. Make sure you keep an eye on the weather as you pack :).

Thursday, March 4

Geoff my thought and prayers are with you mate we are all here for you. As we always will be
Three chairs all taken of but now of course Brendan and Rosanna are now maybes sigh

Wednesday, March 3

Tell me about it Flock I had to force myself to remember my phone number the other day
Well I didn't know Jo was coming along sob sob no one tells me anything.

Kudos to Greyice for the loan of a GPS that I can borrow for the next two months for bloody uni

Tuesday, March 2

Why didn't I think of that
Umm I hate to point it out but you'll need two extra chairs the three of us plus the four of you plus two of my friends equals nine unless there is an extra guest you were planning to suprise us all with Flock huh huh?? As for the chairs we'll drag along two (or three) with us

Monday, March 1

Ohh how bad is my cold getting look at the poor sentence structure in my last blog. Oh well of to sleepy bo-bos with a runny nose
Hollys major is political science for the moment no disrespect to her but I've noticed most BAs tend to change their majors if not their actual degree after one or two years. I think it has something to do with the lack of structure in the degree stream. Its almost as bad as doing a BSc.

Also shes never drunk alcohol before as I discovered this morning so I told her that we can just whip up mocktails for her if she wishes. Flock may have two other people cruising along on the 13th I managed to get in touch with Rosanna and Brendan and they said yeah they'd like to come along Rosie is the Lactose intolerant one.
Well it spite of UNEs best efforts I managed to find my class, Oh goody not only is my service fee going up this year I now have to pay for the privilege of going on a mandatory field trip yaayyyy I feel like I'm back in school. Next they will be requiring us to wear academic robes again someone please remind why the fuck I'm doing this to myself
