Come on.... what did each of us to do deserve this horrible, horrible karma.

I met a girl a few months back..... and I never called her back and now avoid her.

what about the rest of us?

When I was a kid my Mum would say that bad things would happen if I didn't stop touching myself. I didn't stop and well...

There was the aboriginal curse put on the club in 1999? as a result of the racist ramblings of our disgraceful ex-president. Not sure whether the curse was ever officially lifted.

Much like the curse that was placed on the Austraian Soccer team in South Africa in the 1970's, never been in a world cup since. :wink:

Didn't the new board get an aboriginal leader to the club to lift any curses from the previous board.... :?: :?:

At the start of the year there was a sparrow on the ground out the front of our house all gasping and stiff looking. I picked it up and tried to give it some water but some gunk came out of its beak when it tried to swallow.

I was running late for work, and I didn't seem to be helping much so I.... stomped on it and went to work.

2005: My fault.

I blame channel 9 - since they have had the footy rights, we've been shit. As soon as they are returned to channel 7 we'll improve

Tommi, mushrooms mate. Break the stub off with the flick of the thumb and into a brown paper bag.
I'm currently in the process of upskilling my daughters.
For example 8 hand are quicker than 2.
Or as a distraction if staff are getting a little suspicious, by encouraging the 3 year old to collect the carrots from the bottom of the pile.
The 4 of us working in unison also creates a screen.
I'll take your asparagus tips on board.
Regards Pedro.
