OK... but I was first.

You actually take claim to that??? Wow, starkers, you impress me;)

Doc, glad to see yer still stumbling around here. Get rest, drinks lots of fluids...we will still be here.

Love you guys...all but Jafo wot gimme th' crud t' begin wiv. Visit 'is 'ome page.

Oy've got'en ovah most uvvit 'cept this annoyin' Ozzy accent wot 'e left me wiv...'im anniz voyrus stoof.

Judging from the spelling, I'd diagnose a severe case of Viral Zubish.  Run the Mavis Bacon typing course CD and see if that helps.

1. That's the Ozzy crud he gave me, moy writin's go' an Ozzy accent.

2. You have no permission to use my .gif ! Return it at once!

Yeah, I had to take the heat for Doc... to give him a head start if Jafo decided to come after us.

But if he keeps talkin' like that... well it's every man for 'imself.

Seems the Flu Bug has made it's way around to lots of folks over the Holidays.  I got mine the 24th, spent 48hrs in bed and it's still with me.  Mostly just a stuff nose.  Lots of liguids and bed rest.

Hope everyone who had the Flu Bug make a visit is on the road to recovery.

If you haven't had it yet, run, hide, keep the doors locked.

You are at best a "transplant", Pommy Boy.

Ever heart of this? It's transplant rejection...complex. but suffice it to say the "host" rejects the "transplant"..... (you).

Word has it Doc's got the MexFlu and won't be back for awhile...seems he's runnin for some border or somthing.

    You had to. You just had to.

Yes, I had MexFlu Extreme...

But, I took JewishChixSoup 10.0 and got betta!

The trick is that JCS 10.0 has the Original documention....and consequently

doesn't have to be "Fenced"....

Thanx for you well wishes, mate!

Just so you have some fun.  Be sure to load the game "OY VAY - Galactic Guilt Trip".  I'm not sure if you can get it through Impulse though.

Doc, we don't talk like that, the English & a few 'mis-guided' Americans do

So, you wanna throw origins around, do ya?  Well last time I looked, you didn't have red Indiian in you... transplant boy.

Oh yeah, and while we're on the subject,  you're only half Catholic... so expect your confessions to be only half forgiven.

And another thing, you're not half Mexican... meaning you're dose of MexFlu would have been only half as bad as you made it out to be.  You just wanted 'a little bit of sympathy' (Robin Trower), didn't yer!

And Doc would have to be one of the most miguided Americans of all... he thinks that talking with a plum in his mouth will change his US accent and make his language more colourful... fruitier, so to speak.  Hehe.

lol starkers we always get mixed up for poms, in movies when they try to do the Oz accent, it's nothing like us, we don't have an accent , since all Aussies are ventriloquists, we just let the roo's do the talking

Yeah, that's sometimes because they get Pommie actors to play the parts... like the guy in JAG who had the hots for Mac (and who wouldn't)... he sounded more Pom than Aussie.

And another thing!  Not only do the Yanks mess with putting Poms in Oz roles, they messed with the English language and replaced the S with a Z in words: like realize = realise and customize = customise.  I mean, what a crock!  Not only is it taking liberties with a language that worked perfectly well for centuries... it's only half a job, in that they don't use noze = nose; hoze = hose, and uze = use.

Not only that, smelt was/is perfectly acceptable in 'real' English as the past tense of smell, but that's not good enough for the Yanks... no, they had to insist it is smelled, which is technically incorrect because that's how somebody is described after they peeled one off.  I mean, if the past tense of smell is smelt, and the past tense of feel is felt, in following their smelled logic, then why don't they say feeled instead of felt... or worserer instead of worst?

Worse still, when you've learneded proper English wot wos invented by tha English centuries ago, it's bleedin' annoying to have some jumped up, johnny-come-lately American spell checker tellin' yer it's bleedin' well wrong.

Glad you're feeling mostly better. Kill that accent, will ya?

Yes, please do Doc, you sound like a drunken emu

Hehe, a drunken emu, eh? Glad to see I'm not the only one who's partied with emus.

Not partied with, chased by the effers, all my life.. tis a sad sad thing   and very FRICKIN' sssssssssscary

Poor Doc, he doesn't sound the slightest bit Aussie. He's no where near abusive enough and is completely missing the cocky arrogance... ;p

Get bent

What, Drunken ones?  Well all I can say is that you shouldn't have taken their grog... emus anre known to chase grog snafflers, then kick the bejesus out of'em.

And believe me, he doesn't sound too American over the phone, neither... more like a Borg on a mission to assimilate as many accents/languages as he can.  So if anybody loses their voice this flu season... it mightn't be the flu and worth a look in his direction.

I didn't do anything to that emu 

Pommies and Ozzies were born with potatoes or marbles in their mouths. Fact.

And, they're a bizarre lot (at best).

Here's a story from the net (about starkers):

An Australian guy decides to travel around the Greek Islands. He walks into a bar and Jill (an Australian Barmaid) takes his order, Fosters, and notices his accent.

Over the course of the night they get to know each other quite well. At the end of Jill's shift he asks her if she wants to come back to his place and have intercourse with him. Although she is attracted to him she says no.

He then offers to pay her $200. Jill is travelling the world and because she is short of funds she agrees.

The next night the guy turns up again, orders Fosters and after showing her plenty of attention throughout the night he asks if she will sleep with him again for $200. Jill remembers the night before and is only too happy to agree. This goes on for 5 nights.

On the 6th night the guy comes in, orders Fosters and sits in the corner. Jill thinks that may be she should pay him more attention and may be she can then shake some more cash out of him again. So she goes over and sits next to him.

She asks him where he's from in Australia and he tells her Melbourne. "So am I... What suburb in Melbourne?". "Glen Iris", he replies. "That's amazing..." she says, "...so am I - what Street?". "Cameo Street", he replies. "This is unbelievable..." she says, "... what number?". He says "Number 20" and she is totally astonished. "You are not going to believe this but I'm from Number 22 and my parents still live there!"

"I know..." he says, "...your Father gave me $1,000 to give to you"

In fact, emus only circulate where there are incredibly high methane concentrations... so none at my place starkers!

As to why they'd attack TG? Probably her accent.

Here I was sick and all I got was abuse from my supposed friends. I even made a special birthday card for Mirsguy.

While I was sick, though, people asked me if I was from Australia. Guess looking green and talking weird mean Ozzy to folks here....maybe sticking around outlandish appearing animals also...

All I know is I'm deeply hurt by a crowd of billigans...boo hoo!
