Whilst complaining about the weather and sitting in front of an open refrigerator as well as having an industrial size fan turned to warp speed, I have been busy trying to get some work done on my neolithlic laptop PC. A friend emailed me this joke and I thought I might share it. Its an oldie but a goodie and it certainly "captures the moment" in my State right now.
You know you're in Queensland when:-
a.. The best parking space is determined by shade instead of distance.
b.. Hot water comes out of both taps.
c.. You learn that a seat belt buckle makes a pretty good branding
iron.
d.. The temperature drops below 35c and you feel a little chilly.
e.. You discover that in February it only takes two fingers to steer
your car.
f.. You discover that you can get sunburn through your car window.
g.. You develop a fear of metal car door handles.
h.. You break a sweat the instant you step outside at 7:30am.
i.. Your biggest bicycle wreck fear is, "What if I get knocked out and
end up lying on the pavement and cook to death?"
j.. You realise that asphalt has a liquid state.
k.. Farmers are feeding their chickens crushed ice to prevent them
from laying hard-boiled eggs.
l.. The cows are giving evaporated milk.
m.. The trees are whistling for the dogs.
n. while walking back barefoot to your car from the beach, you do a
tightrope act on the white lines in the car park.
o. You catch a cold from having the aircon full blast while you sleep
during the night. (and cop a $1000 buck fine)
p. You pray that your train/bus will have air-conditioning, and if it
doesn't, waiting an extra 15 minutes for one is worth it.
The thermometer at my desk reads 108F and its still going up.
Still if the english can drink warm beer, I suppose I can manage one or two.
