    Default Fair Dinkum! On on my 8000th post here. Yowzers!

    With apologies to the Young Ones....please forgive me Ben Elton & co.....


    Rick: Well?

    Neil: Well what, Rick?

    Rick: Have you decided to apologize for what you said about Cliff Richard?

    Neil: I didn't say anything about Cliff Richard, Rick, I wasn't even--

    Rick: Look, I don't want to discuss it! Okay? Ha-- I wouldn't even discuss the color of orange juice with you, Neil. Heh! But I've written a poem and I think perhaps it might help you.

    Neil: It's orange, Rick, and look, I don't want to depress you or anything, but like, you're standing in a huge mound of lentil cassarole.

    Rick: Oh, Cliff, sometimes it must be difficult not to feel as if.....you really are a Cliff...when fascists keep trying to push you over it. Are they the lemmings? Or are you Cliff? Or are you...Cliff?

    Neil: Yeah. That was really pretty bad, Rick. .....hey listen man, I don't want....like...bring you down or anything, but did you know that Drumbledore's actually now just made his 8000th post today?

    Rick: Bad for society when the KIDS start to get into it! Pretty angry stuff, right? Ah.....who????

    What is "fair dinkum". I don't think they let you have whatever it is in the states.

    Congrats on 8,000. I never did understand what you were saying, being I don't speak Aussie, but doing it 8,000 times is special.

    Sorry, as you know, couldn't resist it, hehe.

    Seriously folks, thanks very much for all your wishes. Oh, and for all of you who aren't sure what the Aussie expression "fair dinkum" is, it's a way of saying something's genuine and true.
