I gave up on omens long ago. They never work for me so this time I’m doing the opposite. My name is George Constanza… I’m unemployed and I live with my parents.

Hey Dyso, cheers mate.

It was one of those free entry for Crown Rewards members comps. 5 winners over 5 Sunday nights, that was the 4th draw. The place was packed with the Freo/Port game crowd from down the road.

She got it on a redraw too. Old mate who was drawn first wasn't there.

Same weekend last year, the youngest daughters boyfriend won $75k on the poker jackpot with a $2.50 bet and Kelly won a signed wiggles footy, which she gave to one of her wiggles fans mates.
Don't count the days, make the days count.

Literally happened a few moments ago. Playing a round on my birthday today, played well but pumped one into the trees. NFI where it exactly went, looking in the trees for a few minutes then WHAM, swooped by a magpie, drew blood through the golf cap. As good enough excuse as any for a free drop, stiffed the next shot.

Make if that what you will.
The match day thread is for unfiltered BS knee jerk reactions. The time for level headed comment comes after.

My 1990 Premiership stubby holder has split down the side. A replacement is required.

So this morning I went to our balcony to check out on a family of Maggies that were warbling and carrying on over the road. One of them just flew up and landed on our handrail to check me out - about 1 metre away. We've never fed them or invited them up at all. He stayed around for a few minutes just checking me out. I've nicknamed him Craig.

Or, come and see me, I have excellent swamp land with potential I'd like to sell. On the other hand, I will buy all your worthless silver, since everyone knows it is a barbarous relic. Oh and I have some Colliwobble wine left that my enemies gave me years ago. It sells for $200 a bottle, the value goes up each year, like a stamp collection. After the GF this year, people will understand just how inappropriate and rare this wine is.:D :D
