OK I’ll go back to the Southeast site. Or shall I say, I’ll go back to the Weather Channel site. Look at the topics:

The Azaleas are popping, the dogwoods howling...

Who's catching hell in the storms?

Sandblasted face

This Weather Sucks!

Bye.

I don't think Marty like my joke about the New Zealand farmer. That's why he kicking me off the board.

An Aussie is having a quiet drink in a bar. He leans over to the big guy next to him and says, "Do you wanna hear a Kiwi joke?"
The big guy replies: "Well, mate, before you tell that joke, you should know something. Im six foot seven, 135kg and I played as a lock for the All Blacks.
"The guy next to me is six foot five, weighs 125kg and hes an ex-All Black No 8.
"Next to him is a bloke whos six foot 10, weighs 140kg and hes a current All Black lock. Now, do you still want to tell that Kiwi joke?"
The Aussie says: "Nah, not if Im going to have to explain it three times."

Hey Scoot, as B6mick said, if your thinking of becoming an Aussie, then you may as well stick around - besides I've read the yanky forums and ours is funnier.

Don’t know if this helps, but my father spent his time in WWII on a submarine stationed out of Fremantle. He has many stories how they just loved it there in Australia. Of course being out in a submarine in the middle of a World War guess any land would have been wonderful.
He does tell this one story about him and the captain going out hunting in the bush. They were sitting under a tree and were watching these planes go by. He said that it looked like the planes were flaying a search pattern. They just thought the planes were practicing. Then all of a sudden this Aborigine comes out of the bush and scared the shit out of them. It seems that there was a recall to the sub and they couldn’t find my dad and the captain so those planes they saw were searching for them but couldn’t find them. However the Aborigine tracked them right down to where they sat.

Hey Scooter - that is a great joke

I have to admit, that when I played First grade rugby league for Norths in Brissy (now Mick - hold your tongue) I played in the backs and we always reckoned the forwards were as thick as pig shit . Probably from the beating their heads had taken over the years. Or maybe they are just dense
