That's why the Vic cops get Joe Public to block the Hume Hwy for them with their cars to stop the usual speeding P platers.........

A new golf book a mate has written. Some of the terminology I haven't used yet! He's looking for feedback......

Dear Friends,

I have written a book and am quite proud of the results and, in order to market the publication, I'm asking friends and family to spread the news about this essential read. This book on golf gives the reader valuable playing tips and insider information that I have gained through my 20+ years of experience.

Highlights include:

Chapter 1) How to Properly Line Up Your Fourth Putt

Chapter 2) How to Hit a Maxfli ball from the Rough When You Just Hit a Titleist from the Tee

Chapter 3) How to Get More Distance off the Shank

Chapter 4) When to Give the Curator the Finger

Chapter 5) Proper Excuses for Drinking Beer Before 9:00 a.m

Chapter 6) How to Find That Ball That Everyone Else Saw Go in the Water

Chapter 7) How to Relax When You Are Hitting Three off the Tee

Chapter 8) How to Relax When You Are Hitting Five off the Tee

Chapter 9) When to Suggest Major Swing Corrections to Your Opponent

The book also includes some GOLF TERMINOLOGY

Ø A Paris Hilton - an expensive hole

Ø A Diego Mara donna - a nasty 5 footer

Ø A Salman Rushdie - an impossible read

Ø A Rock Hudson - thought it was straight, but it wasn't

Ø A Cuban - needs one more revolution

Ø An Elton John - a big bender that lips the rim

Ø An Adolf Hitler - two shots in the bunker

Ø A Yasser Arafat - ugly and in the sand

Ø A Kate Moss - bit thin

Ø A Gerry Adams - playing a Provisional

Ø A Rodney King - over- clubbed

Ø An O. J. Simpson - got away with it

Ø A Princess Grace - should have taken a driver

Ø A Princess Di - shouldn't have taken a driver

Ø A Ladyboy - looks like an easy hole but all is not what it seems

Ø A condom - safe but didn't feel real good

Ø A sister-in-law - up there but I know I shouldn't be

Some vehicles hold their price better than others better resale - better cost recovery for Govt (the theory)

Whilst working for an NGO we used to make money on vehicles by buying them and getting the GST back on them

but they changed the rules so we went back to shit boxes

Take 18 off the FJ and the Pajero, throw in resale compared to a dunnydoore and you get an idea why.

That FJ was doing brisk business out through Mt Glorious and Brisbane Valley Hwy last weekend when I rode through there.

I have a recollection of the cops here doing a deal with HD re a fleet of bikes. Something about a guaranteed bike back price after so many ks/years and then sold through a dealer. Win win so to speak.

I think the problem was the bikes were not liked by the guys that had to ride em and so they went back to Hondas. Then they moth balled the bikes altogether only to dust en off again a few years later. I kid you not. Now there are cop bikes everywhere again.

I'm a big fan of there shenanigans.

I'm just glad I don't have access to an area to be stupid anymore.

I believe that was in the early 80`s, after they got rid of the Guzzi`s.
