Well, we could easily win that one.

Just broadcast to the Russian forces “if you defect to our side, you need never live through another Russian winter”.

It’d all be over before lunch.

We could always threaten Russia with some new F35s that we don’t have

Speaking of Russia, I reckon we should turn those boring ceremonies into displays of our military might.

Tanks rolling across the harbour bridge missiles towed behind, thousands of soldiers goose stepping down the streets, flyovers of F-18’s , f-35’s, Wirraways , whatever we’ve got.

Put some fun and excitement back into Anzac Day.

Yes yes I like the goose stepping, as long we have some somber ceremony how we went along with another doomed military venture – don’t you know they sacrificed themselves because they had some very bad plan that people thought was mad. I remember being told by some bloke who had deserted from the Bosnian army about how he was nearly sent on some big attack on a hilltop position being held by the Serbs. Practically everyone was wiped out.

I doubt if we’ll see any politician who starts these wars ever storming a machine gun nest – it’s a shame because when they get killed everyone could go home.

Rumour is the dawn service will soon be held at night under lights to improve TV ratings.

If World War One Was A Bar Fight

Germany, Austria and Italy are standing together in the middle of a pub when Serbia bumps into Austria and spills Austria’s pint.

Austria demands Serbia buy it a whole new suit because of the new beer stains on its trouser leg.

Germany expresses its support for Austria’s point of view.

Britain recommends that everyone calm down a bit.

Serbia points out that it can’t afford a whole suit, but offers to pay for the cleaning of Austria’s trousers.

Russia and Serbia look at Austria.

Austria asks Serbia who it’s looking at.

Russia suggests that Austria should leave its little brother alone.

Austria inquires as to whose army will assist Russia in doing so.

Germany appeals to Britain that France has been looking at it, and that its sufficiently out of order that Britain not intervene.

Britain replies that France can look at who it wants to, that Britain is looking at Germany too, and what is Germany going to do about it?

Germany tells Russia to stop looking at Austria, or Germany will render Russia incapable of such action anymore.

Britain and France ask Germany whether it’s looking at Belgium.

Turkey and Germany go off into a corner and whisper. When they come back, Turkey makes a show of not looking at anyone.

Germany rolls up its sleeves, looks at France, and punches Belgium.

France and Britain punch Germany. Austria punches Russia. Germany punches Britain and France with one hand and Russia with the other.

Russia throws a punch at Germany, but misses and nearly falls over. Japan calls over from the other side of the room that it’s on Britain’s side, but stays there. Italy surprises everyone by punching Austria.

Australia punches Turkey, and gets punched back. There are no hard feelings because Britain made Australia do it.

France gets thrown through a plate glass window, but gets back up and carries on fighting. Russia gets thrown through another one, gets knocked out, suffers brain damage, and wakes up with a complete personality change.

Italy throws a punch at Austria and misses, but Austria falls over anyway. Italy raises both fists in the air and runs round the room chanting.

America waits till Germany is about to fall over from sustained punching from Britain and France, then walks over and smashes it with a barstool, then pretends it won the fight all by itself.

By now all the chairs are broken and the big mirror over the bar is shattered. Britain, France and America agree that Germany threw the first punch, so the whole thing is Germany’s fault . While Germany is still unconscious, they go through its pockets, steal its wallet, and buy drinks for all their friends.

They were outwitted and pre-empted by the Swiss. At that point they were left resorting to gesticulating about how nations that avoided their duty of being overrun by foreigners could not hold onto the greater pages of history and would inevitably be swept under rugs or sidelined in football matches…….

There was a short period of confusion in which the French attempted to sell white flags with holes(from bullets) in them. It was decided the Swiss would point at their cheese and claim espionage and collusion……

No. It won’t change what they already make. The government will reduce the MBS item claim number (23) by $6 to ensure the payment is collected.

Who is they? Prepared to be corrected and I don’t think the details are out, but I think the gubmint plan is to reduce their payment to the doctor by 6 bucks so the doctor seeks it from the patient instead. No one is really making billions.

See, that’s just what i want. I want something i can propose to the government, and have them lavishly fund my ‘efforts’ at achieving it, but something which is ultimately futile, so that i don’t have to actually come up with any worthwhile result when the money’s all gone. Like Mel Brooks’ ‘The Producers’, but i have to make sure that no-one decides to take it up as an ‘ironic’ cause.

We spent $45 million on bidding for the soccer World Cup.
