Best blog post title of the year, so far:
“The men who fell to Perth”
(on one of the best-named blogs of the century, so far: Matt “not the cricketer” Hayden’s “Die, Fluffy Wuffy, Die!” )
UPDATE: Die, Fluffy Wuffy, Die! quokka shenanigans from last year recounted on Andrew Bolt’s blog.
Heh.

The century??? Damn, man, we’re only nine years in.
However, I will accept that so far, George W Bush is the worst president the US has had this century.

I’m blaming Bush for the lack of surf so far this year.
I predict that come this time tomorrow the waves will have returned from their Rove inspired imprisonment.
Todays Surf Report:
What a joke, the summer bummer which started in September continues. Not a lot on offer that is going to have the groms frothing with inconsistent lumps with no push or shape the norm thru the beach breaks. Try super glueing a couple of one dollar coins to a shopping centre floor kick back and watch the fun.

Did that Wronwright fellow have anything to do with all these people falling to Perth? Am I allowed to ask that? Or should I just blame George Bush and/or Karl Rove and/or Global Warming.

Most probably yes. But with that bloody Tardis, the fellow can be very difficult to keep tabs on. Thus, it’s often just easier to blame Bush or Rove and/or global warming.
However, that noted, many suspect, although actual proof has been elusive, that it is indeed Wronwright who is actually to blame for global warming in the first place and most likely, for Bush’s rise to power, too.

Is Perth, like, becoming the new Darwin?
March 5, 2009, 11:06 pm at 11:06 pm
Well. We’ve got a little ways to go before we’re the new Darwin, Larisa. We’re trying, but.
March 5, 2009, 11:17 pm at 11:17 pm
Yep, a little ways to go…
And then we have those Nebraskans. I’ve a mate from Nebraska, and he is a little weird.

There will only ever be one Darwin. (Which is probably a good thing)
But we could start awarding a second-tier honour of sorts to Perthians who deserve it, the Perth Awards. Or the Sandgroper Awards.
No, doesnt have quite the same cachet.
But is anyone continuing to study this phenomenon of people Falling To Perth? It is very odd. They should measure the gravity field there, maybe they have a stronger gravity field and that is the problem.
Oh I know! “The Newton Award” for People Who Fall to Perth!
(no disrespect to the victims intended, I am obviously being irreverent but you never know who is going to take offence these days)
