I mean, Australian. And this is General Community forum, not strategy or anything else. Thanks for the input though.

Gee, SlowHand, on behalf of the other lunatics in the asylum, may I say how touched we are by your tribute?

There's a very old, very famous Oz cartoon. Man #1 is hanging by his fingernails, high above the ground, from a girder on a construction site. Man #2, in turn, is hanging from Man #1's feet. In the process of clinging on, Man #2 has pulled Man #1's trousers down to his ankles. Man #2 is looking up - at Man #1's wedding tackle - and is pissing himself laughing.

Man #1 is looking down at Man #2 and exclaiming: "For Gawd's sake, stop laughing! This is serious!".

That about sums it up.

One more time I might appear pedantic, but isn't this the wrong topic for a civ2-forum?!

Nevertheless, I for myself didn't ever get any contact with australian humor, but if you mean AUSTRIAN humor, then you could be right...

WTF? Every post I make here is a serious contribution to this forum, designed to enrich your sad lives. I never joke and have no sense of humour. I am deeeply offended. You will pay for this slur on my nation Slowwhand!!!!!

PS, SlowHand, I forgot to mention that Australians are so insecure and racked with self-doubt that they're uncomfortable with accepting tribute. Comes from being an isolated backwater at the arse-end of the world.

I can imagine there being more than one Slowhand, but from Dallas? This CAN'T be the DVD Group Slowhand...
