Blatant Post padding

Well... I was looking at all of the regional chapters thread and post counts.

This was prompted by a thread in a certain well known chapter.
We are coming last in the thread counts

So here is my latest (not so subtle) attempt at upping our count

Well I was actually going to follow up with a post about the Australian Football League for anyone that follows it.

It is the semi Finals, and...

Sydney Swans are playing St Kilda Saints

Adelaide Crows are playing West Coast Eagles.

Football is great! I just never understood how you guys could make that round ball spiral...


Ooops, this is a pad thread. Been a while since I've seen the old pro's do it.

I've always admired the land of Oz for their two fisted way of doing things...right down to the bean can size beer containers. If you're going to drink, then DRINK! Anyone got a cold can of Foster's?

I wonder if Fosters is something they export to the States, and keep the really good stuff back home.

Speaking of beer, isn't it Oktoberfest time in Germany? Time for Ken to dust off the FTE Lear and round the International guys up for a GTG. I'll volunteer to hand out stale peanuts and be the token loud, obnoxious American.

Hi all

busy here with garage construction and house repairs. However, I decided to buy an ex-Comp / Super Comp dragster.

Now guess twice which engine I would like to see in it. Yup. A Ford 300 six.

I have even considered converting it to front engine setup.

I would like to have something that resembles a 60's wild digger.

I will let you know more later on about it. For now, just trying to keep our fleet in working order and get the heating (house) running, it's gettin' chilly here.

Later,

"Post padding - the (next to last) final frontier...
To stretch the bounds of reality, by enormously extending ones own garrulousness.
To seek out new trivia!

These are the voyages of the webship 'Etcetera' -
It's multi forum mission:
To boldly babble as no one has done before..."

(?)

I resemble that...

The final fronteria is however to so conduct onself that ones reputation exceeds that of Ivan Ribic and his people from the north west chapter...
(without padding THAT)
