Sisyphus and 8 ball

After a long conversation with my dog, he abruptly ended it by stating that I wasn't ready to handle the meaning of life yet.

As far as I am aware, it is still somewhere in a backyard of a house I rented once. Covered in dirt.

Can't remember what it looked like tho ...

A-ha (the band, not the exclamation)

I called the wife, the local newspaper, all the family and my neighbors..... they thought it was a big joke but I swear it was there!

I went so far as to open it up and sleep on it at my wifes suggestion that night and every night for the next week as well.

I must say, it wasn't all that comfortable but it really was right there in the couch all along and we have no idea how it ever got there......

Anyone missing a folding bed?

In particular, the meaning of life. Before it dissappeared into a hole in rented premises backyard I caught it napping in moments it thought no one was watching.

speaking of things found behind the couch ...

A pound! Good score. that IS the most exciting couch finding yet.

I keep checking my couch now in the hope of similar luck. Perhaps I could become a professional couch inspector. maybe i will stumble across the meaning of life again ... or a POUND!

You remind me of someone who visited this forum a few years ago.
She went on holiday to the Med and hasn't been heard from since.

Do ypu knoe anything aboout wombats?

wombats ... definately don't hit one with your car. Wombat shakes itself, car runs off wailing.

fav ozzie joke ... how are men like wombats? they both eat, roots and leaves

not many wombats in my area ... tho lots of snakes, spiders, kangaroos and wild pigs.

I could explain it, but I won't.

Linda is making fun of me. I think I should get her ice cream.

double choc fudge implanted with cookies icecream please

I'm going to speculate that the pool table was level. It was the effect of the Foster's that made it seem that you were shooting uphill. Perhaps a 180 degree return off the far cushion added to the illusion.

and it is a fallacy that we (Aussies) drink fosters
personally I'm quite partial to Hahn or James Boags. Beer.
I meant Sisyphus-like metaphorically ... no real point to it, not getting anywhere. Tho that is open to speculation as we certainly got our money's worth ;)
