Hello Steve,

>SA>(It's Winter now)

>LL>Send some of that cold air over this way!  It is steaming hot here!
>LL>And I am roasting!  :)

SA>Wow! This is the first wintery winter we've had for 3 years - it's
SA>even been raining in the wheatbelt, & farmers might get a reasonable
SA>harvest.

Greg Norman really turned on the heat at the British Open.  Until
he cooled off in the final round.  It would really have been something
had he harvested another Claret Jug, but it was not to be.  However,
methinks he was far happier having won a different prize...

>LL>When it comes to trains, the train always wins.  The other day a
>LL>fellow was killed by a train, the poor fellow having fallen asleep
>LL>on the railroad tracks.  He never knew what hit him.  Or in his
>LL>case, what ran over him.

SA>I don't know why people sleep on railway lines - an old joke here is
SA>"why don't people sleep on railway lines? Because trains run over
SA>sleepers" (which wouldn't make sense in the US, where sleepers are
SA>ties) - but it happens fairly often.

Yesterday some dude parked his pickup truck on the tracks, and
waited patiently for the train to arrive.  According to reports,
he died instantly when the train came crashing through.  It may
be that it was a case of suicide by train...

>LL>Bush still has time to start a war with Iran and then declare
>LL>martial law, thus suspending US elections indefinitely.

SA>Bush apparently is seeking diplomatic ties with Iran, perhaps in the
SA>hope that he can avert the inevitable Ezekiel 38 / 39 invasion of Israel.

The general consensus among military types is that if Bush doesn't do
it, McCain will.  The problem with that view is it looks like Obama in
a landslide this coming November.
