BL> A funny, true story from years ago...

BL> Station Street Newtown is a long narrow downhill street 
BL> leading to a T and in the 60's a bunch of bikies moved into 
BL> the house opposite the T. They used Station Street as a 
BL> speedway, roaring down and locking wheels to side up to their 
BL> front door, chucking donuts, terrorising the neighbours. 
BL> Complaints to police had no effect, so someone spread oil at 
BL> the entry to the T and watched the bikies slide straight 
BL> into their own house, demolishing the front (and themselves) 
BL> entirely. There was a police investigation, but they gave it 
BL> away because everyone was killing themselves laughing at 
BL> bikies calling the police.

BL> The bikies swore revenge, but in fact they crept away to try 
BL> another suburb.

Now we know!  Expect a visit from Animal and the boys in the very near future.
