now explain it to me Rex
I explained to Claire the other night that my comment about compressed water was a little fib but she was still interested in the dried water. She was sure it was invented to take into the bush by early explorers so they could squeeze fluids from plumbs and other moisture bearing fruit/glands to allow the brave gents/convicts some instant fruit juice in a diluted state.
She was watching CSI when I asked her about this so it may be a bit vague! Conversation was a little thin but I do seem to remember her mumbling something about great grand mother opening a tin, with absolute delight I expect, as a lady on a foraging mission was classed as a lady, not the usual sex object that most men of the era considered of a woman.
This was true, however and once she was on all fours scooping sand like no tomorrow, she was unmolested and managed to find a large phallic shaped root of a plant known as a Schlong.
The plant its self is a rather uninteresting looking, scrawny, dull and hirstute individual but makes up for its self in survival fluids.
The story goes that great grand mother attacked the root, that filled her hands like something only seen in.. well... and drained it into the tin she had opened to fuel the thirsty explorers.
No one was prepared for the reaction. It was said that Schlong juice is good for the weary when watered down but... it went off like champagne! All the troops gathered round and used their hats to catch the marvellous overflowing bubbles, the tin was passed like a religious cup between the subjects, someone found a fuel can and that was filled and quaffed by those bringing up the rear.
The party continued for hours and then eventually the can ran out of bubbles...... but those that had supped were beyond behaviour as one knows. Scenes of terrible depravity fell upon the site, with hugging and talking sh*t and very valuable cans of vintage VB were wasted as they were launched at rival males in the struggle. They could still be found in the bush to this day. This appears to be normal behaviour for the males. The Females appear to just like sex in private. (Without her heavy dried water carrier)
The next day there was awful confusion as the women that were meant to be dried water carriers got lost as they left when they were meant to and had no sense of direction. The men lied in bed drunk. Groaning!
That meant that the great explorers had found Melbourne... as did AC/DC with thishttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H1iR2Wi3u5o
