Re: Heatwave / Fire Emergencies in Oz
So it is about a week since the start of this thread. The entire continent is still getting hammered by heatwaves. In NSW,alone, we have over 100 bush fires running this morning with a severe fire danger day predicted for today. I don't know the figures for the other states but I would guess that th...

Re: Ugh! I think you know this song...
Well the mercury is going well over 100°F here today, there is no rain in sight. There are over 100 bush / scrub / grass / forest fires running in the state (with it being school holidays there will be more). It is not even 8 A.M. and it is already 82°F. However, I will take 100°F over icicles any d...

What? The Oprah that was on TV wasn't a zombie? Really? For example: The "fans" of the show were clearly the post feast fans. Just think of the brainless behaviour of middle aged women who should know better... Stage Note: As the lights dim Rabbitz moves to stage left and is seen donning a...

Heatwave / Fire Emergencies in Oz
Hi Pholks, Just a quick call out to my fellow Aussie Parrotheads (and run of the mill Buffett fans too ;) ). A few hot days and big fires running here at the moment. Stay cool and decide early whether you will evacuate or fight. Remember, these big fires do not give you a second chance, if you have ...

Re: BN Critters - January 3rd, 2013
OK, I wanted to work out what font BB used in a post above.
So I highlighted the word, right clicked to copy it and low and behold what did chrome want to do?
Is there anything the interwebs can't do?
Well it amused me...

Well some good news (for the wifey and I) Cyclone Evan turned left... Cyclone Evan 03.jpg We have spoken to friends in Samoa and it is a disaster there. Much worse than the tsunami a few years back. Several people still missing and several thousand homeless. We haven't yet spoken to friends in Fiji,...

I didn't vote for him but I would have to go with President Clinton (as long as the Mrs. is not around :wink: ). I think he would be an interesting person to have a beer or two with.

Re: My new BBQ
Very nice. I've never seen burners like that. Please let us know how well it works for you and how good the food tastes. BTW, round here we call them BBQ grills. So it's the best of both terms. The burners are what intrigued me. Ok this linky is a bit of an ad video but it shows the idea - the burn...

Nice! What's the first item on the menu, shrimp? :wink: Despite the Aussie tourism ads, we actually call them "prawns" and you know what, the first item will be a couple of aged angus rumps, but tomorrow will see fish, prawns and maybe some dead baby octopus (marinated in chilli, soy, bas...

Inspired by Joetown Parrothead's thread: http://www.buffettnews.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=90179 Coupled with the fact I just, not 30 minutes ago finished building it. I had to share. So here is my brand spanking new, yet to be cooked on Barbecue (or as you pholks in the US might call it Gri...

Re: Jimmy Buffett=Lack of Asian Fans, does this bother anyone?
Bingo. I just read this today and that was my first thought. Have you heard most Aisian music? I don't know how they listen to that, except for Gangnam style. Now that's catchy! :D I am sorry but that is a very insular and ignorant statement. Have you ever considered that those of Asian or Middle E...

Re: Jimmy Buffett=Lack of Asian Fans, does this bother anyone?
Further to ragtopW's line of thinking, Australia is considered by many to be part of Asia, well commercially and financially at least. The gigs I have been to here have therefore been full of Asian people. I wonder if I should start a thread "Jimmy Buffett = Lack of American Fans, does this bot...
