why the gripe
that roos can't type?
or the cute bits of fluff
eating leaves till they had enough
stoned on leaves or
stoned on grass,
using terms like "a smart a..."
let a better term suffice
such as
flatulating orifice.
keep smiling

Skippy was absolutely brilliant! I played back some old VHS recordings and discovered that Skippy's answers to any questions were actually given in binary code. I am transcribing it now into hexadecimal and it may well become a new OS. I propose to call it Skippolese.
Stone the crows! My last batch om gumleaves turned out pretty strong!

We had a thread here titled What are you doing now?
Heard of that?

I think I've heard of that thread, but I cant remember for sure..I think I'm getting forum burnout. That is what I get for making a new profile on a forum to try to get some information....BTW, kudos to the forum here, and technical forums in gneneral....I hant realised how decent the technical forums were till I tried to get non-technical info from aforum. What a waste of time that was....
Honestly, that was a off-the-cuff semi-joke, but it was also a diversion. As far as people arwe concerned, 'native' australian could be taken as meaning 'someone who was born here' or it could mean 'aboriginal'. IMO humans are an introduced species to this continent, no matter if the human just arrived, or has had family living here for 50, 100, 200, or 50,000+ years.

That could be said of anywhere north south east or west of Africa lol. Did you read the report that Indigenous Australians have the oldest continuous DNA outside of Africa? They theorise that our guys where the first tourists to take a trip away from Africa.

I agree for the most part although I think of Koalas the same way I think of Bag Pipes, i.e. they are great when they are a long way away.

Is this a cue for a discussion on Australian politics and the worth of Unions?
