We Had a Gay and Hearty




I can't even explain how great Australia was. Alex, Adrian, Stuart, Stuart's Mum, Kirstie, Adrian, Adrian's mum, Ed, Anna, Mimi, Danielle, and everybody else, thanks a quadrillion.

Now for re-entry. Tomorrow it's off to Massachusetts, where I'll be hanging with Rich, John, and hopefully Jon and Phillip and Andy. Dumbrella night is Thursday night at 9PM at the The Haymarket Bookstore Cafe, where you are encouraged to bring nunchucks and an irresponsible attitude.

If, hypothetically, one were to go to the Haymarket Bookstore Cafe and one was unsure of what the Dumbrella men looked like, how would one go about identifying you? (I am deathly afraid to accidentally mistake John for Jon and earn myself a walloping)

Look for two tallish fellows in glasses, one with dark brown hair, the other with reddish-brown hair, and yours truly who will probably be sporting my new Akubra hat. You'll know it's us.

Mission Accomplished!

And two years from now the populace of Australia will still be fighting back killing our boys, we can blame it on terrorists and the other guy's too weak to get us out of Australia and we can forget all about 1000s of people still dying in the outback.......... oh never mind.

With all due respect and at the risk of prying into sensitive security related matters I would like to inquire as to whether or not you found the services of Micheal Caine to be of any help in your endeavor to subdue Australia.

It is my sincerest hope that he rendered upon you all invaluable services to that end.

Thank you.

I only hope this will happen again sometime.

Sincerely Yours,

Actually "wog" doesn't mean quite the same thing in Australia as it does in the UK. http://www.wog.com.au/
