A bird for Wild Dingo

[Meerkat]

Well, a bird's mouth anyway ;)

Now that you have your table saw acting a bit more cooperative, I thought you might find this of interest. It's of general interest too, so I thought it should go here.

You might at least let me know you saw this Dingo! :confused:

Meerkat, Dingo is very good with his mail. I replied to an email from him, and posted it on his boat repair thread, two days ago. I wonder if his computer is down. Over here it is usually the IP's fault. In this heat nothing copes well.

Also the cricket match against India is in a truely perilous state, ... most Aussies would be seriously distracted by this National crisis.

I HATE THE DAMNED GAME!!! :mad: ... its usually on every bloody channel it drags on an on the commentators are as boring as the desert and its like watchin grass grow or golf... dull as hell... so I wouldnt have a flamin clue whats happenin whos playing or what the score is tongue.gif ... oh but I did hear that Waughn is retiring??? maybe? ah who cares! :rolleyes:

I'm with you there Dingo - sport is an imitation of healthy activity, and a poor one at that.

I mean what are they trying to prove? To whom? And why? I never did understand it's appeal. I doubt that sport would even exist if it wasn't for beer smile.gif

[Domesticated_Mr. Know It All]

Without sport beer would still exist though. :D

[Meerkat]

Baseball has to be right up there in Total Boredom Points! :D

[Wild Wassa]

It seems that I've landed on a thread bereft of true players, ... shock horror. All sport is better with the sound turned off. Even in my dotage I like to compete, ... I mean win. If I've lost a race, it is usually because I've displayed good sportsmanship, and I spend the following few weeks, figuring out where I went wrong, ;) .

In the ISAF's Rules, Rule 1: Good sportsmanship must be displayed at all times. This is the only ISAF rule that has not suffered from amendments and multiple sub-clauses in the battery of rules.
My definition of displaying good Sportsmanship is ,... getting away with it, :D . I hope this posting has helped to encourage young Sportsmen.

Dingo, I like getting on Indian Cricket Forums and giving them curry. The Indian members stats and the International members stats, on these Forums are usually about 1,000,000,000:1. Last night I posted that I had rung Waugh, and told him to play for the draw. You should have heard the responses, I didn't have to read them, I could hear them.

Aramas, Sport is nothing more than a light weight distraction. Don't insult what you don't understand.

Warren.

Do you respect the saw now?
Take some of that nice wood you've ripped and make some pushsticks!

Shane old mate I'm with you on ball sports , they give me the Tom Tits , it's a special sort of torture devised by people with a unhealthy fascination for balls to inflict upon people on a Sunday afternoon , now don't get me wrong , there are lots of good sports , canoeing , sailing , boating of any sort , fishing , shooting , archery and martial arts to name just a few but my pet hate is people who go to the beach and feel the need to play beach cricket or beach football , for some reason these people always seek me out , when I go to the beach I like to fish and I always find a nice quite spot miles away from any one else , why do these people always feel the need to come along and then start a game right beside me when they have miles of deserted beach all round , got me stuffed

Regards

Aye now David yer a man afta me own heart I tells ye... Never could understand the facination for grown men to chase each other around a bloody great paddock and hugging each other till they knock the ball out of their hands or kick it into some strange goal setup then dance all round the paddock huggin each other :rolleyes: tis indeed a worry mate... bit of the ahem shall we say queer eye side in me own estimashun!! :eek:

But there are sports manly godly sports womens can join in too! no worries good sports sailin canoein nudie swimmin bare breasted steeple chasin and such seriousness true fair dinkum sports... good for the body and soul ;)

Now on the other hand wimmins ball sports are aweflaminsome!!! ;) I tell yer I can watch Netball all day no sweat seein them sheilas gettin all hot and sweaty bouncin around the courts theres somthin about it I dont know what it is just attracts me is all... And as for that nude wimmins beach volleyball :eek: Now THATS a game I cant tear meself away from talk about brilliant exciting and well downright flamin fun to watch :cool:

but cricket? I mean I reckon it was the scots who created that flamin game just like they did that game of golf... see theyre like that them scottish fellas dancin and prancin around in thar kilts and devisin ways of inflictin maximum boredom on all manner of people then the crazy weird fellas dont even do any good at the flamin game so they just sit back and laugh their flamin boxes of at the Aussies Poms Indians West Indies and Pakistanies they do... now I reckon it was a couple of ol pharts sittin outside the cock and crotch pub one arvo after they devised that golf game havin a nice ol chinwag that devised it...

"Och wood ye lookit tha Mac" "Aye Mac I seen that" "Aye we done fooled them wee fellas dint we" "Och Aye we di tha Mac nooow we ave done made oop that golf game an confused the boogery oota them shall we make up anothery?" "Och why wood we be dooin thar for Mac?" Weel Mac I tells ye just ta really muck with ther wee brains" "oooh och Aye ere cooms young Jock Mac shal we put im in the know?" "Och nay tha bonny wee laddie's got nay idea! his mam was a brit doontcha knoo? nay we canna tell young Jock" "Aye sad tha" "Och aye right sad it were but we caarn try it oot on im caarnt we?" "Aye Mac tha we can" "Och Young Jock coom ova ere laddie we got soomthin for yer to try nay nah son bring tha bottle wi ye!!" "Och aye laddie bring tha bottle" and so they hands the lad a peice of wood with a handle stuck on the end and while Mac wandered up to the end of the peir with a bloody great boondie in his hand rubbin it against his crotch as he thought of Mac sittin back there skullin the bottle of godly scotch whisky young Jock had bought over gettin more and more phissed off the more he thought of the fact that he was gonna miss out... suddenly he turns and with a leap and a bound kilt flyin high young lassies who were watchin the antics gigglin and pointin as his dirk flashed into sight ...and off he runs full bottle down the peir suddenly hurlin the boondie straight at the young fella... the young fella reacts and lifts the bat into the air...

missed... and as he falls grabbin his family joowels theres an comment from ol Mac between gulps of the nice warm bottle of finest kind scotch "och dear got him in the balls" and the now infamous awesome cry of "OOOWWWWZZZZAT!!"... which cause Mac had just run more than he had in a month of Sundys came out "Ooowzat" and not "GimmethatdrinkMac"... and so cricket was born and its gone down hill ever since...

Mac of course had skulled the bottle and was makin a hasty reteat to the "cock and crotch" knowin that Mac would follow and he would have time enough for one quick dram before he would have to bolt out the back door and down to the "fanny and rump" pub where he would have enough time for maybe 2 drams before Mac arrived and he would have to bolt to the "tit and bum" pub where...

and so not only did the Scots give us that lousy game of golf but also that equally insane game of cricket

but they also gave us the mighty pub crawl!!!

aahhh at least they got somethin right :D

Cruel bunch them Scots buggars! tongue.gif

But I digress just a tad... the diget is still attached warthog no worries and Ive made a couple of goodly push sticks and will get stuck in and make some feather boards tomorrow sometime... no more muckin about!

Shane , being of Scottish ancestry [ about 5 generations ago ] I'd always thought it was a joke played on the rest of the world by the Scots , much like us and Vegemite , I mean we only sell it to tourists and immigrants , no one else really eats it other than as a punishment ,
