RE: There are twice as many

There are twice as many kangaroos as people in Australia.


Or vice-versa. It's so hard to tell the difference.

Sadly we are famous for Skippy The Bush Kangaroo, now revived, a sort of cultural twist on Lassie/Flipper. Anthropomorphism run riot. They don't actually hop down the main street ....

Cheers, Mike.

( edit ) This is my favorite spoof.

( edit ) Skippy, the character, was actually about 8 or so kangaroos each tasked for specific 'tricks'. As a child I was devastated to hear of this.

Recalling Skippy has nudged

Recalling Skippy has nudged such a deep nerve with me, even after all the counselling, that I must highlight his superb mechanical talent and communication abilities :

Quote:
Jerry: What’s wrong, Skip? What’s happened?
Skippy: Tchk tchk tchk.
Jerry: (picking up distributor) What is it?
Skippy: Tchk tchk tchk.
Jerry: Where did you get it?
Skippy: Tchk tchk tchk.
Jerry: It’s not Matt’s. Then why the urgency?
Skippy: Tchk tchk tchk.
Jerry: Jim?
Skippy: Tchk tchk tchk.
Jerry: It’s from Jim!
Skippy: Tchk tchk tchk.
Jerry: He’s in trouble, his car’s broken down, he can’t get to the show! Is that it, Skip?
Skippy: Tchk tchk tchk.
Jerry: Come on, Skip, we haven’t much time.


Cheers, Mike.

It's now morning and

It's now morning and everything is sunny, heading for the mid 90'sF today here and a low only in the mid 70's tonight, it looks like the a/c may not stop running for a few days as the same is expected thru at least Wednesday.

The game is progressing very fast towards it's end, no we are not there juts yet, but we are getting closer. I am amazed at the diversity of posts, I had no idea Italy IMPORTED pasta, nor that after all this time kangaroos STILL outnumbered people in Australia!! Skippy was 'different' then what American tv shows their kids, no violence and everyone lives! Now road runner type cartoons were okay as they were strictly cartoons, but anything with real people had little to no violence in it.
