Beware Dark Skippy, the Weremonkey of Doom. He is roaming the Continent, snatching up good jobs and charming goils wherever he goes. Your city may be next!
Illyria: We cling to what is gone. Is there anything in this life but grief? Wesley: There's love. There's hope...for some. There's hope that you'll find something worthy...that your life will lead you to some joy...that after everything...you can still be surprised. Illyria: Is that enough? Is that enough to live on?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.
Yes. All your goils and jobs are belong to us. My laugh is an evil laugh.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
...surely Dark Skippy should be the WereKangaroo of Doom?

Where in Germany?
Northern Bavaria. If you're planning anything let me know and I'll be more specific in email.
Fay! How are you doing? I too am a big Natter-skipper, I missed you there.

Cool! I'll be in Heidelburg at Akademie für Fremdsparchen for a language immersion dealy the last two weeks of August. Watch your email. Seriously shameful party time is in order.

Oh dear, was this the 'roo equivalent of FLIPPER? Because I have a theme song running in my head I haven't thought of since childhood (although I think they might have renamed the 'roo Skippy for USians).

The Amurricans wimp out early, 2AM being a silent, or possibly a too drunk to post time for them.
9AM-ish being too early for the Continentals, of a Saturday, I am left to my own lonely posting. Luckily, I have just exchanged email with my son in Auckland, who is in a stranger-yet timezone.
Evidently, there is a thing called "surfing" (which does not occur in Wisconsin, oceans being absent) that he has discovered. All the good surfing is supposed to happen in Australia and Hawaii, according to all the movies, so I am reluctant to recognize his enthusiasm for this form of exercise.
Such enthusiasms should be restrained to snowboarding, as the Good Lord intended.

Hiya Swiss Miss Gus, it's 5.30pm here and wet, wet, wet (rain not surf).

Oh dear - that's a really bad time for me, we're on holiday for most of it, and things are pretty hectic afterwards (B. is starting pre-kindergarten, etc.). But we'll see, keep me posted. Heidelberg is about 3 - 4 hours drive from here.

Frankenbuddha, the bush kangaroo was Skippy, I think the Skipinder Fiona is referring to was a parody of same.
As for Skippy being the roo equivalent of Flipper, well it's unfair to make comparisons but I would think that Skippy's record of crimes solved and international drug cartels foiled far outweighs Flipper's, to be frank.
