He does kinda resemble this greek guy I knew once apon a time though...cept the greek guy didn't wear tights. At least, not when I was around.

You're going to be in trouble with that sort of talk Dana...you mischevious little imp you! lol

Of course that's where they'd go if the borders were opened. Where else would they go?

Britain? Apparently if we don't slam the borders shut sometime soon, there'll be a gang of Eastern Europeans the size of Belfast descending on us overnight.

Better watch out. You don't have too much room left for more people.

DanaC · 08-25-2007, 06:21 AM

That's right! Hey...we're a small Island...we have to protect ourselves from the onslaught...fuck....if too many arrive they'll weigh us and down and the whole motherfucking Island could sink! Imagine that!

Aliantha · 08-25-2007, 06:23 AM

Yeah...then you'd all float south and end up in Oz...but this time not as convicts. Instead you'd be refugees and we'd lock you up when you get here.

hahahahaha. *pauses to choke on coffee* hahahaha

(Did you ever read that essay that Greg Egan wrote about asylum in Australia? It's caled No Sugar. It really does get to the nub of Australia's (and the UK's) approach to asylum. I think you'd find it interesting. I'll try find you a link.)

Aliantha · 08-25-2007, 06:27 AM

Don't do that. You're entertaining me. lol

DanaC · 08-25-2007, 06:28 AM

*grins* Finally my life has some purpose!

Aliantha · 08-25-2007, 06:31 AM

lol...I'm sure it had purpose before. It just wasn't as important as it is now.

DanaC · 08-25-2007, 06:32 AM

I've found my special purpose!

Aliantha · 08-25-2007, 06:33 AM

Now if only i could find mine....or my happy place. One or the other will do me fine.

I suppose jimbo will be in here posting 'gabbly' some time soon.

DanaC · 08-25-2007, 06:37 AM

Aliantha · 08-25-2007, 06:40 AM
