ANZAC DAY 2008 Lest We Forget

[Dancing Mustard]

and modest too...

Don't forget to mention that I also have a huge penis.

Huge? I submit that you leave out any sort of detail to this self proclaimed description of the girth and length of your love muscle. Huge is relative sir. A 2x4 is huge when compared to a toothpick, after all and yet, really small when compared to an oak tree. Likewise, you may have a huge penis when "hanging out" with pygmies, but lets admit it, you tend to be a loner in the locker room after gym class, for fear that your acorn will become the topic of ridicule.

I left out detail because I didn't want you to slash your wrists because of the feelings of inadequacy that such statistics would undoubtbly induce in you.
The only reason I am a loner in the locker room is because all other males in the area invariably mistake my behemoth wang for a large predatory snake, and flee the showers in terror.


Sure it sounds kind of weird, and it can be a bit awkward explaining that they were all scared of my dong. But the plus side of getting to use the showers alone is that I don't have to worry if I ever drop the soap.

and of course a witty response...perhaps you two would like to start another thread...and you left the "e" out of undoubtedly in your haste...

however to get back to the topic here

I have an old history book from 1934...and I looked to see what history had to say about Gallipolli at that time...

"...an effort, sponsored by Churchill, was made to force the Dardanelles in order to give the Russians support and drive Turkey from the war. The fleet having failed, an Allied force, including the Anzacs from Australia and New Zealand, landed on the GALLIPOLI peninsula on April 25th, 1915. After heroic efforts, the force, after eight months, had to be withdrawn..."

Of course... Moving over now.

I'd rather stay here and talk about pushing prozac down my dong...

[lord voldemort]

iHelen Clark gave a speech, it might have been last year, about just how great a lose it was. i think she may have used the words 'almost an entire generation lost/killed'.

was your army all volunteers ?

was there conscription in nz...i never knew that
ww1 for aussie was all volunteer
ww2 wasnt though
and dm seriously f*ck off....i like you but this is one thing id rather u not mess with

[greenoaks]

i think our guys were such great fighters because they were volunteers.

if you didn't want to be there you wouldn't put in much effort, morale would be low, etc but if you volunteered to travel to the other side of the world to protect the empire, you're a force to be reckoned with.

The British army commanders were fools in the Gallipoli campaign. They thought that the area around where they landed was flat ground all the way inland. It isn't though most of that area is filled with craggy cliffs or thorn filled valleys.

Yes Gallipoli is regarded as a symbol of military incompetence and catastrophe. Mistakes were made...isn't hindsight a wonderful thing....

But the significance of Gallipoli goes beyond that. It was the first time that Australia or New Zealand had gone to war for Mother England and confidence in her superiority was shattered and eventually much later contributed to the signing of the Westminster treaty. The ANZAC's became the heroes led by the incompetent officers more use to Calvary charges than bullets...

Actually we went in the Boer war for England

[greenoaks]

i think the aussies were known as string beans because every volunteer was at least 6 ft tall. that was monstrous in those days, particularly compared to those stumpy brits.
