Anna Bligh will be kicking herself when she realises that she lost the opportunity to also have the ABC Interpretive Dance Bandicoot dance across the bottom of our screens.

How would Bandi interpret Yasi? With his head between his legs, kissing his *rse goodbye?

Such practical advice succinctly explained, Mr Onthemoon. I’m lovin’ the hapless horse phoning home. And it’s so entrtaining watching Tony Abbott currently mouthing off.

Here’s a question about frenzies at the supermarket: do the shoppers raid everything, even the spices?

you have drawn a great bligh FD!

and yes zut, having been flooded out of home for many days in mid-jan, i have witnessed nearly everything sold out of supermarkets including salt and pepper – what people were going to do with all the stuff is beyond me…maybe mr onthemoon can doodle an appropriate response

Dear Firstness,

This one is a boomer. I reckon there’s about six good T-shirts in it. Your cyclone graphic is WAAAY scarier than the pathetic SMH one done in just light grey. Yours SHRIEKS, man. Well except for that Auslan signer who merely flaps and looks scared – fairly clear message though.

I love the horse phoning home and your Anna Bligh is so good I reckon her minders will change her makeup to match your pic.

BTW – who is that dude in pink wrapped in the Australian flag. I half remember, but I’m not sure.
