Yeah, i figured your bday is as good an excuse as any to make a weak attempt at a comeback... again. it seems every time I start a come back, I get busy and disappear right about the time I get all caught up again. I always prided myself on having read every single post here. I don't think I'll be able to make that statement again.

So what'd I miss? Please be sure to send anything important my way.

So how was your bday??

To be honest you didn't miss much... although I don't really remember the date you went AWOL so you might have missed something

Truth be told the boards have been deader than a disco

My birthday was good thanks. I had a low key dinner with my lovely wife, just the two of us. At the time it was heaven because I had been out 7 of the previous 8 nights with various work and social functions... I'd had enough! Slurms McKenzie was all partied out

Yeah, it seems that way. I haven't had a chance to really delve in to the site yet, but nothing seems way outta whack. heck, I left (foolishly, of course) right about when sussed started comin' back around. I thought for sure I'd drop out of the top 10 all time posters with her body stirring up the boards... Shockingly, I didn't even get bumped a single notch. THis place just ain't what it used to be. But it still is one hell of a great place. I'll get caught up soon. I have to change it up a bit from how I used to run the boards. I won't be able to be on throughout the day at work so much anymore. It will have to be more of a posting sprint while at home in the evening.

That sounds like a great bday. Glad you got to spend some time with the little lady. I guess when you're with the right girl, you come to realize that no matter what a great time you could possilby be having while partying with your friends, it's nearly impossible to beat some quiet QT with the wife. Glad that all worked out for ya.

those things happen.

Mate I will tell you the reason.... there are mainly only the slackers posting. Between yourself, Gnappster and I we create interest with the constant need to post, we create humour, we create traffic and therefore create more women.... or something like that

Birthday was gold mate... looking forward to a small Christmas break and many a festive beer



Well truth be told I was just following Kate Moss around before Pete said, "allo mate ave a wiff a this" and next thing I know it's December

Bondi, does that guy who moved from Aust. to Green Bay to follow the Packers make much news over there?

The who? Some guy moved from Aus to the USA to "follow" the Packers???

I know there are a few ex Aussie Rules players who punt in the NFL but I have not heard a thing about some guy moving just to follow the Packers? If it made the news here I would have seen it, especially the sports news programes because I am a sports nut

Yes, he quit his job, sold his house and moved here for the season. So far he's been to all of the games, home and away. He makes alot of news here.

His name is Wayne Scullino, from Sydney, His web site is www.theonceinalifetimefan.com

I have never once heard of him.

Some sports in the US make the sports news here... largely basketball. Although we get live broadcasts of many Baseball and NFL games here on cable no one really gives a fuck here unfortunately

We are all about Rugby League, Ausse Rules, Football (soccer) and cricket

Bondi, Bondi, Bondi...and what would you do if you were on a plane from Thailand and some shifty fellow said "hold this just till we get through customs..."

It depends if he had an east london accent or not

Well, I hope you enjoy the stench of piss, 40 roommates and cockroaches for pets...cuz baby, you are going to Thai prison.

I don't enjoy any of those things!

I'm sorry, sweetheart...didn't mean to scare you.
Come here, now...it'll be ok.

Ahhhhhhhh serenity now

(dammit, i just can't help myself)

Baby with a body like yours you can do whatever you want......and make up for it by showing that cleavage and pouting.....

To all regular participants, readers and even the lurkers to this wonderous thread I wish you all the fun and frivolity Christmas and the New year period can bring.

Bondi

And a Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy 2008 to you!

Merry Christmas to you all...

May it be a sunny and fun filled one for you (lucky bastard!!)

I will be here freezing my ass off

Whatcha talking about? White Christmases are cool!

Well, we had at least 8 inches of snow fall on Christmas. I don't remember that happening in my life time. I think there was some stat that in a hundred years we've only had it snow on Christmas 12 times... The funny thing is that my grandparents who are in town (and never make it out here) have seen 3 of those snowy Christmases... too funny.

Funny, I thought it snowed much more often in Colorado. Here it's common to have a shitload of snow every year.

Well... it does snow a lot here and even more in the mountains, it's just pretty rare I guess to have it snow on Christmas Day. The mountains get feet of snow for every snow storm up there. In Denver though, we get a handful of storms every winter ranging from a couple of inches to around a foot and the snow is normally gone within a couple of days since the sun is out so often.

Perhaps you people fart too much >_>

Thank you




It was fun filled and sunny yes... there is nothing like it in the world however I am contemplating a white Christmas next year in NYC?



Experience a summer christmas one day and report back to me... outside playing with the kids, having a bbq, a beer, lapping up the sunshine. Nothing like it

We do that here in the states for 3 holidays a year.

Christmas Day
New Years Eve
Australia Day
Anzac Day
Easter

All those holidays in Summer

There's nothing better than celebrating outdoors
