News just in…
‘Donkey Dong’ has been pinched. Military police identified the soldier from Darwin’s Robertson Barracks and handed him over to NT police…who declined to charge him due to lack of evidence. Donkey won’t get off scott free, though. He’s expected to be disciplined for ‘bringing the army into disrepute’.

“Well it’s brought me back.”

And me too.

It’s been pretty heady around here lately, a strategic lowering was neccessary.

And Parish is much happier just left of centre or …. now let me feel … n, no, yes, it is left.

“I’ve certainly lowered the tone.”

Well it’s brought me back. That and the fact it’s a Graeme Bird-free zone.

“”It fell out of his pants and he said, `That’s so embarrassing, it happens all the time’,” she said.”

She should have then struck while the iron was hot. “Well, have you checked out our range of gravity socks Councillor? However we don’t sell them individually.”

“You’re a great addition to Club Troppo by the way, Wicking”

I’ve certainly lowered the tone.

Don't forget the biggest NT news of all: Davey's Demons Dump Dogs in Darwin. Or even Motlop's Melbourne Mauls Muts at Marrara in Monsoon.

“It’s still a good beatup, but now it’s SHOCK JOCKS: SOCK COCK?”

JOCK COCK SOCK SHOCK I think, Evil, but that was an impressive effort.

As a beatup piece, I reckon it sounds more like a cod piece. Or perhaps it’s just his sock puppet gone south?

Ken, you’ve ruined a perfectly good beatup. And I just thought of a better headline for it…

I don’t want to disappoint you Geoff, but it may all be a storm in a teacup (or at least a Y-front). Most commentary on the original story in that great journal of record the NT News has overlooked the following possibly critical aspect:

One retailer who outfitted the man with a pair of bicycle pants recently said he revealed himself to her. After getting a good look, she believes the serial flasher may be using a stocking to fake his credentials.

“It fell out of his pants and he said, `That’s so embarrassing, it happens all the time’,” she said.

“Military police? So if I put on some army pants from the disposal store and then steal fruit from the greengrocer, they will send the Miiltary Police after me? Anywhere? Or only in the NT?”

Probably the latter, James, and then only if you’re well-hung, it seems.

You couldn’t have a law like that in Darwin. Everyone would be either walking or in gaol.

In Dubai the penalties for drink driving are; 1st offence – car is impounded for 6 months & 3 nights in Gaol. 2nd Offence – you don’t get your car back at all & 6 months in Gaol.

Its a policy that might just have an effect :-)

My flatmate was arrested last year for public urination. His statement to the police was “I was busting and I still would have gone even if you had your gun out”.

Anna, sometimes swearing, urinating and defecating can all happen at the same time. A spectacular alignment I’ve witnessed once or twice myself on big nights out.

No, no, sorry constable, it was just a joke. Really.

I heard one of your MPs on NewsRadio the other day explaining that you should ban drunkeness because of “public swearing, urination and defecation”.

In whose world does the former in any way compare to the latter two? My God – and I thought we West Aussies were strange.
