I prefer the other 2 Austin films (especially since he does a German "Jah" all the time instead of a dutch "jaaa" and the skinflake-eating gets a bit boring).

Grinnn offend away, I do not mind at all.
I adore the way we all think crazy things about each others countries.


(now if you will excuse me, I have to paint some nice new blue figurines on my clogs before I deliver my loads of harddrugs desguised as tulipbulbs :D to the windmill next door, all the way complaining about politics and the weather of course! )

I remember 4 digit phone numbers!

I remember my grandmother having to dial an operator and ask her to connect us to a 3 digit phone number!

And now if you’ll excuse me I have to go outback and whack-the-diddle-o by the billabong while I stone the flamin’ crows and stuff a jumbuck in my tuckerbag:)

I love the Austin Powers franchise! So much win and endless memes! Far too much Fat Bastard imagery and quotes in my brain! :D

I was born on the date of the Twin Towers Tragedy in the year which equals that date plus MLXIV.

If you want to believe that I, like all Aussie shielas, am tall, slim, blonde and athletic with a pet koala in my bedroom into which I zip my pyjamas (the ones I never wear) and a pet kangaroo in my backyard (which leads police directly to evil-doers while continually going 'tsktsktsk'), go right on ahead. :)

Well.. since we're kind of "world-wide community" that alone could make a nice Game Room entry :) Reminds me your walk-out in the clogs to the windmill a corner away. And I don't event want to know what's in THAT shop between your house and the windmill next corner, haha!

Ppppfffftttt!!! David, you made me spit coffee all over everything!

Here's a quick story for you:

Some years ago, I stumbled upon an MMOG (massively multiplayer online game). It seemed like fun, so I joined up and began to build my empire. After a while, the growth of my empire was such that one of the 'élite' groups head-hunted me to join them as a primary producer (ie. I got to churn out stone and gold and iron and food to feed the troops of our collective army). I agreed and worked my way up to become an officer of our clan. That's the background.

So, most of the players were young men, largely from eastern Europe. The smattering of women players were also young (early twenties). I guess this is why every one assumed that I, too, was young, tall, blonde, athletic and always romping around under the Australian sun with not much on. One fellow in particular began to 'woo' me by sending me bonanzas of gold and jewels with which to line my treasury.

Thus it was that we began an out-of-game correspondence that lasted for many years. He was fascinated that I kept parrots and would enquire every day how my Beaks were and what funny things they'd done. He, in turn, would enchant me with stories of his goats and the flock of geese at his farm in Slovakia. I'd never mentioned my family and he never mentioned his, so conversation was kept purely to our interests and taste in things like music (eg. we both liked Rammstein). Eventually, he stopped playing because of his work pressures and I gave up when I returned to study.

To this day, I'm firmly convinced that my lovely young friend thought he was cultivating a relationship with a gorgeous teenaged nymphette instead of an aging ex-school-teacher with two kids, a dog, two cats, a pile of birds, a husband and a long plait. The question was never asked, though, and so it was never answered. I did enjoy the friendship, however, and I hope my friend did too! :)

I was born before the Kennedy assassination but to young to tell you what I was doing when it happened.

My earliest memory is of visiting the worlds fair in Spokane Washington. One exhibit gave me nightmares and that's what I remember.
I am a Pieces.

Life the universe and everything isn’t limited to you Brits. I’ve known the answer to that since 1985
