The Queensland Floods

The only trouble with the Queensland floods was there wasn't enough water. The job didn't get finished.

Ha ha, he he! Is this just a mean old smarty pants Victorian joke at the expense of our northern cousins? And waiting for that twangy accent to fire up in protest. 

Yep, I guess it is. Ha ha, he he. It's like being mean to your country cousins, which is always fun. More fun than beating dumb animals with a big stick, not as wet and sticky. More fun than leading old ladies halfway across roads and waiting for the screech of brakes and the thud. More fun than denouncing Jesus in front of Madge Vickers-Waffle and watching her stammer and for her to clutch at her pearls and finger her bible.

More fun than a box of monkeys, or a room full of puppies. More fun than… oh, so much fun one can have keeping one’s clothes on.
