Never a truer word was said than ‘You can’t prosecute a credible case for regime change from a banana lounge’. I’ve been trying for years.

Just a bit of house-keeping:
The Hyphen Abuse Commission has requested that the Free Myanmar Sub-Committee immediately change its abbreviated version (acronym being not strictly appropriate) to FMS-C.

And wtf is #mmia? It was there yesterday too. Google tells me it is the Twitter hashtag to use when tweeting jokes about the Montana Municipal Interlocal Authority.
But that’s not funny.

[You can’t prosecute a credible case for regime change from a banana lounge.]

Rubbish! Don’t believe them Darrin.
Just look at David Cameron’s recent brilliant coup.
A blackberry and a banana lounge in Tuscany. = Total chaos. 😀

My husband Juzzy just got back from Fed Square where, with about ten thousand other nitwits, he Welcomed Cadel:
“The look on Cadel’s face when he reached the Square and saw more than ten thousand people, and the full three minutes of clapping and cheering when he climbed the stage… Almost like the look on his face in that last panel. Beautiful.”

Cor…what sort of person do they allow into this country anyway? The missus waited up to see the Frogs hand out the winners trophy, ‘n ya know what she said? She said this Evans fella opened his acceptance speech by speaking to the Frogs, in French. Wot kind of Oz sporting hero are we breedin’ these days? Only one of them meta-sexual faggots could come out with this sort of bu^llshite. Give me a barney at the back of the pie-stand in Tootgarook any night of the week. Bloody speaking in Frog lingo….Jeezus.
