Debacle -- if you go to the Avatar warehouse where they keep these thingies on this site, I think the very first one in line is perfect for you. Kind of complementary to dlowan's butt-fiend bunny, too.
The bunny has spoken . . . ok, ok, please just put the gun down . . . backing away slowly . . . i never asked fer no lapine cuisine . . .
oh, dear. is that what marsupials keeps in their poucheses?
Oh my god. Deb, are you a marsupial bunny??? Perhaps a 'roo?
I wondered about that cigarette...
Heeeeeeheee. That's fun to say!
oh, they've got marsupial versions of everything down there. rabbits, dogs, trees, cacti, shopping carts. everything grows a pouch sooner or later. that's why they've got the accent. everything's clipped because they're not 100% focused on what they're saying, because they're usually fiddling with stuff (car keys, credit cards, submachine guns) in their pouches, which they're not quite used to yet.
truth be told, i wouldn't be at all surprised if that prime minister who disappeared down there a few years back didn't just climb into his own pouch to take a nap and couldn't find his way out.
I am not a marsupial - I am just a girl who believes you cannot have too many pockets...
Harold Holt - yes, 'tis not every country who can so easily mislay a Prime Minister at the beach.......there was a rumour he had been taken up by a Chinese submarine and replaced a moribund Chairman Mao - whom he somehat resembled.
I think the man was tuna....
Yeah, there's some pretty nasty currents off the beach where he disappeared, aren't there? Harold "Chum" Holt...
Yes indeedy - and the seas were high.
Many think he suicided because his wife was having an affair - and she DID marry very soon afterwards.....who knows?
Yes - methinks 'twas chum ..... I still love it that we could have a PM so unguarded that he could drown quietly - whether by accident or intent - though I guess Kennedy, at more or less the same time, was getting away from HIS omnipresent guards for quickies quite regularly....."Life will find a way" she said, portentously...
Oh, (mon petit) Cassandra of the Mundane
Guide me in this Earthly plane
Tell me what the future holds
And how Nature spins and folds.
I'll follow you to Elysian fields...
So long as there's rabbit stew for dinner!
(loads machine gun anew...)
"Life will find a way" was a quote from that dinosaur movie, Jurassic Park, right?
I hadn't heard about this important personage who has lost himself. It happened a while back? Good grief. Misplacing a minister doesn't sound very wise. And his widow already wed? It smells a bit like a rat. Was her new husband in the security force, perchance?
Kennedy was from a different time, which makes a lot of difference... not the oversexed part, but the I-can-sneak-off-even-though-I'm-president side of things.
Kennedy and Holt were from the same time..... and his wife did not marry until AFTER he drowned....and he was the PRIME Minister - like your President, only under a Westminster System, of sorts....
Australian politicians have never needed the kind of security your folk have - until now, possibly, because Al Quaeda have declared war on us, too....sigh...
Life will find a way is, indeed, from Jurassic Park - and the quote made it into the movie.
I can't believe it! I am reading a Michael Crichton - on nano-technology - as we speak...well, not really as we speak, since I cannot read a book and post at the same time, but you probably know what I mean....
I work down the hall from a nanotechnology research center. Interesting stuff. Lotsa weirdos in the field, too -- I can tell you that. The ultimate pursuit of the anal-retentive egotist.
Really? Why? Hmmmmmm.....
Very small things which must me manufactured with immaculate care.
New and potentially very important field with considerable potential notoriety (surely I'm looking for a different word there) for those who advance it into the realm of practicality. (That is, if someone makes nanomachines that can move through our body identifying nascent cancers, they're name will surely become of the household variety.)
