Americans! Is this why your economy is going backwards?

This is true...mistakes like that don't just happen...I still think it's funny...I was only joking when I said you must have some time on your hands...I know you've been busy lately hence we haven't seen much of you on here ...let me guess...do u listen to seafm?

No Sea FM for me. I cannot stand that station. I listen to ABC mostly, Triple J and Coast FM. I avoid commercial radio as much as possible!

I am sure that someone there realises what shape it is in. You don't create that by mistake! Mybe it was their last day on the job and they wanted to leave their old boss which they hated a present? I do not have a lot of time on my hands, but I heard them talking about it on the radio yesterday and the DJ said that he had tweeted it. As I follow him on Twitter, I went to my Twitter page and there it was! So I immediately thought of making a discussion of course!

Maybe they invented a new sport that they play on that dirt! Or maybe they were bored with nothing better to do?

Yes, I think you could be right!

I intentionally worded the discussion that way to see what would happen Cupcake. I think I was feeling a little bit cheeky yesterday! Hmm, thanks for the present Rich!

Ha Ha! Some people are not seeing it right away, you are not the only one! I know the economy is not bad because of people doing things like this. I just thought it would be funny to blame it on it!

Hi 2004cqui. No, I choose not to watch news or read newspapers as there is not too much in them that is happy and you never can believe everything in the media anyway. Thanks for your words Veganbliss. I think a few people missed my link in the discussion or could not view it properly with slow connections. I think that the global economy is a serious matter, but that does not mean we have to refrain from joking about it. Life is too short to be serious all the time and I felt the need to have a bit of light hearted fun. That is why this discussion is under the interest of "Laughing" What is our country doing? Well they are selling of al their assets and creating more debt as usual. I could start many serious discussions about the world bank and the monetary system, but I do not feel like being all negative right now!

I heard them talking about it on Triple J yesterday and the DJ said that he had tweeted it. As I follow him on Twitter, I went to my Twitter page and there it was! So I immediately thought of making a discussion of course! I was in the mood for a laugh and thought it would make a change from discussions about cancer and veganism!

Fair enough. I think more people found your discussions on cancer, diet, etc more helpful, but I see your point about a change. Do you think they could do this digitally instead of having Americans plow up their stadium?

To be honest, my last discussion about the trapped miners had been on my mind and then just after I heard about the second explosion, this funny story came on the radio and I felt the need to share it with the world to lighten the mood a bit!

I am glad that you got a laugh out of it Xansus. I do not think you would be allowed to put those words directly in here anyway as there are certain words that are banned by MyLot and you cannot submit your post with banned words in it.

HaHa! Yes, I get those emails all the time. I even said to my wife yesterday "surely I do not need this treatment that badly that they have to email me several times a day"

Hi Paula. It took my wife a while to see it as well. She was thinking that it would zoom in further and she would be able to see people getting up to mischief! Well, I think they play some sort of "ball" sport there!
