Nungali Posted September 4 (edited) ( see previous post ) Think yourself lucky ! It could have been Tim Hartridge ! In the old 'Pagan is pop' days ( some local inner city hotels in Sydney even had 'Pagans at the Pub ' nights ! Cheap sleazy mags published psuedo stories of 'nekkid witches ' . Trucker mags claimed wild women living out on the Nullabour Plain in the middle of Oz that would jump out semi naked on the road and do .... well ... whatever a speed crazed truckies mind might imagine . Into this world, enter good old Tim, whose hobby seemed to be 'networking' such events for those 'interested' . The word would go out ... a meeting of ( which ever group name they worked under or made up at the time ) at ( a cemetery, a park, somewhere 'concealed' but public . Some would be ready for action but there was usually a contingent of suckers there who follishly came along with others or got attracted by curiosity . Then the 'paganism' would begin , with scantily clad girls , much drinking and carrying on with the newcomers and observers somewhat bewildered . Then the reporters and 'journalists' (of those seedy magazines mentioned above ) would jump out the bushes - as Tim had informed them of the event as well . People would scatter, Tim would pose in cape and fangs and pictures would be snapped . next issue , girlie trucker magazine has front page sensation ! A bunch of idiots, Tim , maybe a picture of some innocent person looking bewildered and trying to escape or shield from having their image snapped and of course the silly tag headline . My favorite one was ; ' Tits out witches bonk naked on gravestones ! ' I have to say, in my time I have become familiar with traditional witches, Gardenerian witches , even Alexandrian witches ..... but not the 'Tits- out witches ' I am assuming they come from the old province of Titsout in Saxony ? .

Nungali Posted October 1 Yeah .... that would probably work . I helped a mate move , took my trailer and small all wheel drive vehicle for him to borrow , while I used his car (no tow bar ) . We loaded it up, I said 'Drive carefully in my car ' he went to take off and 'Grudddge ! " then again ... and again "What the hell are you doing ?" Him " Is this a manual ? " "What ? You cant tell from the pedals and the gear lever !? " 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nungali Posted November 16 Is thanksgiving dinner like Christmas dinner ? I used to work at the hospital over Christmas (as I didnt like Christmas , and penalty rates for working then skyrocket ) . people all getting together that do not normally, or even may not want to ... but ; 'family' ! .... 'Christmas' . I won't detail what a Christmas dinner can lead to ( as it didnt make me laugh ) , let's just say I would be busy in emergency and mortuary . ( aside from other reasons , like sport, motor vehicle / recreational accidents. ) Stay safe folks - dont let your drunk turkey drive at Christmas ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nungali Posted November 16 I remember our small nuclear family one year having the woman next join us , for some unusual reason . I must have been about 14 . For some other unusual reason she started talking about the bright future with nuclear power , my parents nodded and agreed . I asked " But what about all the radio-active waste ? " Only to get a 'shuuut - uuuuup ! ' glare from my parents . The woman then offered ; "Well, they will store it and in the future scientists will figure out how to dispose of it . " parents nod . But not little Nungers - you all know what I am like ! " So, the plan is to dump it into our future and make it our problem ? " She was flustered , I was told to not talk at the table any more and woman continued in silence looking indignant at my rudeness . Later my parents told me I had been very rude " Me ? Rude ? She was the one suggesting dumping nuclear waste on my generation ! " I was told it was not appropriate to talk to my elders like that . . . especially on ' Christmas day ' .

Thrice Daily Posted November 16 There are 6 people, and 2 dogs, and one Umbrella, they aren't under the Umbrella, how is it they don't get wet? I asked this one my daughter today, we figured it out. It made me laugh. She wasn't convinced. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thrice Daily Posted November 16 Just now, Nungali said: Why would they be 'getting wet ' anyway ? Exactly. I knew the answer, 'it's not raining' but i held back from saying it, in the name of discovery. I had a dad who used to mercilessly beat me at any game we played. That was his strategy and I'm cool with that. Doesn't leave much space to explore skill and strategy though, I prefer to go that route. Riddles are great for this though...
