Subject: Earth Land Mases are moving

Studies of the Mariana Trench has completely changed the understanding of the movement of the earths crust. The Trench isn,t just the deepest part of the ocean. Scientists studing the Trench have learned that it is actually moving with the crust driving underneath the edge that forms the trench. There are other areas in the ocean where this is happening. The projected result will pull Australia east and the Australian contenent will eventually contact the Western United States. You learn alot watching Scientific programs on the television. Aussies and us Yanks will drive from one continent to the other and save alot on airfare.

I guess Australia just can't stay away
from this hemisphere..

There's pretty solid geologic evidence that Australia
broke away from the area of Patagonia.

Maybe they had a round-trip ticket.

There is an old line that says, "If you hold your hand on your arse long enough it will grow there".

Kathy's youngest son, Kyle, states that this would be the solution to the problem of us living so far apart from one another.

Still, I doubt this will happen in my life time.


All other snide comments made by you lot will be ignored! lol

Well it seems that we have been promoted from "Swine of the highest order" to "You Lot". Don't know how to take that.... will have to look it up in my AUSSIE/POMMY dictionary.

Swine of the Highest Order sounds better... has some serious depth to it almost like we ought to be knighted or some such

We like to think that Patagonia broke away from us or indeed we cast it adrift as being an inferior land mass that ruined the view.

OBTW when we get there it's Hedmans "shout" for the 1st round of beers as I don't believe what Ralph says, that Hedman wouldn't 'shout " if a shark bit him!

Disregard the original message.  The "land mass movement" earlier thought detected by scientists was just Ric moving quickly to the salad bar at the local Denny's.  Easy mistake to make... show's over folks... go on home...
