One of the few
sober members of Little Darwin’s reporting team has just returned
from a fact finding tour of Asia
with China’s latest
fabulous device for
fighting bibulousness on the
homefront . It is a well known fact
that many Australian housewives
are highly bibulous ; some are so bibulous
they turn pink and end up with hair like Judy Garland in the Wizard of Oz.
This new generation product , copied from the Germans , not only spells fibre in
the American and English way , it guarantees not to go “moldy.”
One of this blog’s mature scribes in a southern capital is in need
of a rub down with a black velvet glove and a washcloth to overcome his
bibulousness which saw him trip, bang his head in the gutter
and be dragged home by elderly
members of the CFMEU
who are likely to appear
before a certain royal commission and inquisition in the near future .
During an extremely bibulous evening one Christmas in
Darwin decades ago , silly
Cyclops was involved in an incident in
the Darwin Hotel in which he was king
hit and slid down one of the
pillars in the Green Room and cut open his nose on a smokers please metal
container . In the mad moments
that followed, a high ranking police
officer , who bent Cyclop’s arm up his back and applied a painful masonic hold on a middle finger, was
thrown into a cane
lounge. Looking in the bathroom mirror the next morning , Cyclops found a strange person with a black eye, a nose like a warthog and a
swollen lip staring back at him and was prepared to sign the pledge.
