Although in defence of the French, and I feel I must as I am of French descent, the only reason why we spend so much time in bed is because we love to love.

It's so much more satisfying to participate in a good 40 hours of lovemaking than 40 hours of watching my boss look at my chest and wish...

Vote for National Party leader John Anderson, three years less elderly than the Midnight Oil spasm dancer.

You remember the days when Tim Fischer claimed that he was better for the youth vote than Paul Keating, right?

A hip twenty-something urbanette was being vox-popped on one of the Melbourne newses last night, and cheerfully admitted she had no idea who Peter Garrett was. So there's hope.

Sorry to disappoint you soldiers, but that was it...

If Labour does get Peter Garrett to stand in order to attract the [cough] "youth vote", I suspect the National Party will probably try to win those youngsters back by recruiting Rolf Harris. If so, the parliamentary debates would be particularly entertaining.

You know....I kind of half wish that Garrett would take that seat.And in a highly personel and half assed way wouldt mind seeing Latham sneak over the line next election.Think of the factions and the loony minority groups that he is successfully keeping the lid on till one minute past the next result.This is a gold mine of humour.Think of the monkey buisness! Think of the laughs

French Wench-

If you ever need another liberating, your friends in the American-Commonwealth alliance stand ready to serve again. I'm sure the Aussies will volunteer to replace the Canadians at your Juno.
