why wy?

1. Always have two sets of car keys. This is useful when one of you locks the car with the key in the ignition and the engine still running.

2. Wood fires may be bad for the environment but ooooo... they are toasty.

3. Farts travel faster than the speed the car is travelling at.

4. The secret to a good stir-fry is a big fire and a wok that doesn't get washed.

5. Only tourists have outdoor barbeques in winter.

6. On the topic, a shrimp on the barbie is actually a sausage.

7. iPod + iTrip = Happy driver

8. Snowy, Nick's uncle's dog, is like a werewolf crossed with a grizzly bear. He looks cute, unless you are male and not family. Apparently, he doesn't bite females but I didn't want to risk being the proof for a logical fallacy. Nick, who was bitten the last time he visited his uncle in December, got bitten again and two holes in his sleeve to show for it. It's tradition, he says.

9. They do not have cable in the Barossa valley. Lest this reflect badly on me, it was actually the guys and football.

10. Rum that had 52% alcohol. Yo ho ho!

Joe is leaving in three days. Sigh.
