Well I suppose so ... but my interpretation is much dirtier.

What? Not drive nails through her wrists? Ooops

Welcome to the Cellar, Zengum, you clearly fit right in. Well apart from the self-censorship there. That is not allowed, all filth must be in the open

Thank you, monster!
(now there's a phrase I don't think I've used before).
Sorry about the self-censorship, but I couldn't find a smilie with a big dick...

[DanaC]

LoL! We deffo need a smilie with a big cock. I can't believe we have'nt got one....here of all places.

[Aliantha]

Yay..another aussie, and in my (possible future) line of work too!

Welcome to the Cellar!

[Urbane Guerrilla]

Well, there's a modest proposal.

And now we grasp the implications of the handle -- the Gum smells of cough drops... or some parts of the State of California.

I see Australia is paying the US, $800,000,000 to use our military satellites.

[Aliantha]

I wonder who we're spying on

Well, gum trees are originally Australian, which was the reference I intended. "Zen" because I am presently in Japan. And it had a catchy sound.

Fucking WHAT? That's almost as much as the present government has spent on politically biased "informative" advertising!

Probably ourselves. Specifically, the ABC's Chaser team (the guys who did the APEC stunt with the fake Canadian convoy)

[Aliantha]

Yes well those chaser boys are a bunch of dicks. I don't thnk they'd be worth spying on.

I think we might be spying on Warney.

Well, I thought it was as funny as hell. But I note there is a strong split over this one.

I'd guess keeping an eye on Muralitharan's elbow. (I just put that in to baffle our US Cellarites!)

But if we pay $800,000,000 for access to US Satellite data, are they paying us rent for the three bases they have here? And do they "check" the data before passing it along?

P.S. Is it "Cellarites"? Cellarians? Cellarbrities?

I have no idea. But the answer to the second part is No, if you believe a book called Chatter. He does a whole chapter on the SatCom bases in Aussie land.

As a onetime intelligence guy, I'm only going to say I will refuse to comment.
