Hehe. Some good stuff there, but gutted the Galah wasn't included.
I thought having one of those hit your UHT was customary? :p

:eek: 25: You have a toilet dolly. *shudders* I don't really wanna ask,
but, well I can't help myself.
WTF is one of those?

Did you also include:

Lose to England 5 consecutive times at Rugby (including the World Cup Final)?
 
lol. Hey you might want to send this in to The End section in the PC Authority magazine. Could win some software. If you don't then I certainly will with your permission.:)
 
Go for it. I am in Aust so I have no idea what you are talking about. Maybe send me a copy of whatever you win.
