A fine speech from John Howard.
A new island!
A moron.
- musste heut mal ins internetcafe, weil das internet zu haus nicht funzt. naja, auch egal.
also pien hat angerufen und die familie will mich!!! *freu* morgen kann ich dann dahin, soll die morgens anrufen und dann klaeren wir genaueres! also noch heut abend arbeiten, evt. morgen frueh (was ich nicht glaub, weil ich heut abend genau meine 30 std voll mache) und dann bin ich da weg! und muss dann da erst ab montag arbeiten… d.h. ich kann erstmal in ruhe die kinder und eltern kennenlernen, shconmal was abgucken und gucken, wie alles so funktioniert und so!
pien hat mich gefragt, ob sie es meiner jetzigen familie sagen soll oder ob ich das machen will. hab gemeint, dass ich das mache, weil ich das persoenlicher finde! glaub auch, dass das besser ist, als wenn sie es von pien erfahren, oder? also ich wuerds besser finden an ihrer stelle. und sie hat mal wieder was an mir zu meckern gehabt bei den interviews, weil ich den familien zu praezise auf die frage, warum ich denn mit der jetzigen familie nihct klar komme, geantwortet hab… mann, die hat sich vielleicht komisch! egal, ist abgehakt und jetzt wirds hoffentlich alles schoen!meine finger hatte ich uebrigens clevererweise am trockner verbrannt, hab ne urst fette brandblase am mittelfinger! und dann war es natuerlich genau am anfang der arbeitszeit und die waren dann sauer, dass ich nicht 100% geben konnte, da ich ab und zu mal kuehlen musste, weil es echt hoellisch weh tat, noch bin bis in die nacht rein.
kool hey I can type German?? wow

(I mean, are they really mad or naive enough to believe that wind and solar power are going to make up the difference in generating baseload power? Surely not? So that leaves us with one alternative only – the end of the modern world as we know it and a retreat away from all the benefits that this world’s science, technology and medecine have brought us. And if you think reading by candle light in an otherwise dark and cold home sounds romantic, then you’re mad as well.)
OK, hold that thought. “Dark and cold home”, got that? Well, if we add PETA to the mix we will have no animal products to keep us warm (wool, feathers), or protect us (leather), not to mention food and heaven knows what else.
Who else of these groups of morons want us to go back to the stone age – or before, at least they got to eat meat and wear animal skins!

- #8 – That is the must read article of the year! Laughed? I almost shat in the woods!
When Barrymore (star of “E.T.” and “Charlie’s Angel’s,” to name a few of her films) bragged about defecating in the forest, Diaz responded she would like to have the same experience.
“I am so jealous right now, I am going—I am going to the woods tomorrow,” Diaz said. A clearly satisfied Barrymore laughed, repeating, “It was awesome.”
You think that’s cool babe? Wait until you get your period. It’s totally freaking gnarly!

What a link you’ve found there – looks like must-watch TV there
No thanks – I wonder if the show features Diaz crapping in the woods – I only wish a big siper was right there to bite her on the backside
Bloody idiots

Not wanting to appear ignorant, I googled Wally Sears but what is the Wally Sears defence?
I was thinking court case but Wally is a boxer, he’s also a mortgage broker and a partner in a law firm
He’s probably the Wally in Where’s Wally too
So OK I’m ignorant! Help me!

- This from Howard was apt:
It de-legitimises other challenges over which we do have significant control, other challenges with moral dimensions just as real and pressing.
As for the island, an old buffer (the token righty) on British Sky news this morning said how can it be a ‘new’ island? Its always been there, hasn’t it?
- It is an act of sheer desperation that attempts are being made to link Australia’s refusal to ratify the Kyoto bungle to the reluctance of other, much more dangerous emitters, to ratify.
The desperation of pro-warming alarmists to use this on the local political stage to whip the government in the lead up to the next election is indicative of a mindset which says “whatever it takes”.
Australia could reduce CO2 by 60 or 80 percent by mid-century without it having any significant effect on the world situation. We would certainly impoverish ourselves in the process and recovery from that self-harm would be slow, if possible at all.
The Howard government gets NO credit from the Flannery brigade for achieving many improvements in line with (while not actually ratifying) Kyoto.
With so much deception and so little realistic assessment, this little “nigger duck” (whoa! controversial, eh? context? moi?) will not be voting for the so-called “alternative government” anytime this decade.
- Ooops, sorry everyone…. it’s an Aussie thing to scramble nics and names.
Sort of like the natural extension of Brad Pitt and Jennifer Anniston’s unfortunately named child Shilo – forever becomes “Pilo Shitt”.
It even affects NRL stars like Carmichael Hunt, who is exclusively known as “Harmichael”.
No offence intended, just continuing a fine Antipodean tradition.

The people are Inuit. Eskimo is an unacceptaple term to them. Languages (and tribes – to my limited knowledge) are innu, inuvialuit, inuktituk, etc.
Maybe someone with more knowledge of this subject than I could throw some light on the subject

- “…Warming Island (Or Uunartoq Qeqertoq in Inuit…’‘
Great name, and a boon to all Scrabble players who draw the Q without also having a U.

- Re #8…..Barrymore was delighted to crap in the woods? OK, we can dump her off in one of many wilderness areas here in the USA, and she can walk out. Since it’ll take several days to do so, Drew will have ample opprotunity to indulge in this new sport.
/sarcasm
God, how stupid do these idiots think we are? I’ve crapped in the woods more than once…..and I’ll put ass to porcelain before risking contact with unfriendly critters and insects anytime.
I only hope that Barrymore actually tried to be sanitary, and buried her feces.
Gaaaah!

- Ah yes, the joys of one’s first crap as nature intended.
It grows old pretty fast after you have crapped outside in all types of weather conditions. Try doing it in the pissing rain with cold water running down your back and into your crack (soggy toilet paper is the pits), or when the sand is blowing and you get a dune full blown up your crack.
I have spent months crapping in the shrubbery, and I am a firm believer in a bit of clean, well built porcelein enclosed in a leak-free enclosure (preferably without spiders).

- I forgot to add crapping in the snow. When it’s snowing. And when the wind is howling.
At least frozen turds stuck on the hairy bits don’t smell much.

- As Australians turn into a bunch of Tubers, it’s energy problem will solve itself.
- My personal favourite bit of shitting al la natrual is the bloody flies that try to get “straight to the source”. Im feeding the bastards anyway so the least they can do is let me snap one off in peace.
Many moons ago when i was a scabby woolpresser I had to take a lovely lady out in my ute to the shed we were at.
She went off for a pee about half way and we didnt find her for half a day. Poor city girl got badly bushed and couldnt find her way back to the road 50m away!
I told her to piss behind the tailgate of the ute next time, wed be polite and look the other way.
Unfortunately the next time was when I offered a bloke a tow, shed ducked behind the ute and I reversed back to swing around and tow him…. A loud scream and a half naked lady interrupted mid-stream was the result as she ran off into the bush again….Posted by thefrollickingmole on 2007 04 24 at 10:33 AM • permalink
- 1. John Howard is a man of immanent sense.
2. Pfft! In Dubai, they’re dredging up new islands all the time.
3. Okay. Not sure where they were going with that. German culture? The Kaiser? After all this time, it doesn’t come across clearly.
4. I can never hear another Sheryl Crow song without thinking of stinky toilets.
- Ah, I remember that poster. Back in college, I showed it (and similar ones) to a classmate who did a presentation several days before on racism in WWII. See, she had showed a bunch of anti-Japanese posters depicting them as gorillas as proof. My Germans-as-gorillas posters didn’t make much of an impression, though. Never did get in her pants. Go figure.

- I’ve never understood why Eric the Red called an ice sheet “Greenland”. What’s that you say? Greenland wasn’t covered with ice in the 10th century?? Huh.
I think Laurie David is dragging Crow around on her Stop Gerbil Worming College Tour because Sheryl makes her look smart by comparison. Crow, who worries that someone will steal her good ideas, is an object of derision even among the hard left commenters at the Washington Post.

- They have so much in common with Al Qaeda. Islamics use no toilet paper, and only shake with the left hand for this reason.
Islamist would be perfectly willing to restrict air travel by means of terror. Think of the megatons, yes megatons, of CO2 that did not enter the atmosphere due to the fear of flying that Al Qaeda created.
7th century technology? Check.
Rule by “wisdom circles”, you now have the “expediency council), too bad about the women. Check
Gay marriage will no longer be an issue which divides western culture. Check.
…
- I’d rather eat one-square Crow than this!

Thanks for the link I think. It would appear that most there think that comedy and vulgarity go hand in hand.
I always thought that Bill Cosby did stand-up comedy, must be wrong.
The Smothers Brothers were certainly “provocative” but wouldn’t be considered to be on the same planet as that twit. The only really edgy thing they did(I have all their early albums) was “Dance Boatman Dance” where the boatman would go into town every night to pick-up their “oars”.
“I’m a boatman, gee I’m sore, I came home without an “oar”.
- An email to The Neal Boortz Show this morning, purporting to be from a Crowe band member, claimed the “TP” episode to be a joke taken out of context by the mean ol’ media. Well, we all know how rampant anti-green bigotry is in the MSM. But, given Crowe’s history, I’m not buying it!Posted by nofixedabode on 2007 04 24 at 05:33 PM • permalink
- Dean Barnett blogs on “Sheryl Crow’s Botched Joke”. He sounds unconvinced, too.Posted by nofixedabode on 2007 04 24 at 05:47 PM • permalink
- Even if the word gets out that Crow was just jesting, the damage to her brand is irrevocable.
Honestly, I believe she was joking too. But this is just too good an opportunity to pass up to ridicule celebrity know-it-alls.
In short, the entertainment community will no longer enjoy the credibility it once had as a home for sophisticated and mature analysis of global affairs. (Personal not to Sheryl Crow – See? That’s satire.)
Exactly so.
- I doubt that Crow was joking. Remember, folks, the left is beyond parody.Posted by The_Real_JeffS on 2007 04 24 at 10:17 PM • permalink
