Last chance! Entries close at midnight tonite (28.2.05). I will take at least a few days to pick a winner as there are some great entries.
Good luck.
Mono
Ok Here goes. The following should be sung to the tune of Waltzing Matilda and I had to cut and compound some verses to keep the length down but you'll get the drift
1. Once was a young man
sitting in his little boat
fishing with Mono like Dad told him to
till a Spaniard caused the line twist
that caught his leg and tore it off
Nurse got confused and wrote Mono as his name
Chorus:
Fishing with Mono
Fishing with Mono
you'll get a catch
when you fish with the best
One way I can say
to get a smile that stays all day
Fishing with Mono that's what you should do.
There are lots of rumours, but the truth is that Mono catches so many fish, that the CSIRO have given him a Latin name.
So "Mono" is just the shortened form of
MONO PEDES DEPINGO INCOLA AGNATIO
Which translates to:
He who goes on one foot to paint "Locals Only"
mono was at a vending machine but had no cash. he stuck his arm up the machine to try and get a chocholate bar out. his arm got stuck . he tried desperatly to get his arm out but then gave up. the fire brigade came and they had to cut off his arm
What a load of dribble, anyone that knows him can attest if you go near his cans he screams out "hey they belong to mono, and thats me". It's even rumoured he keeps a cuppla cans in his refridgerated arti leg. ??? Can't confirm it, but definately believe it.
P.S. Everyone used to call him ICE which he thought mean't he was cool. When he found out it mean't he was in everyone's esky he decided to change it to mono.
Quiet street, suddenly an almighty roar as a Harley on one wheel flys past with the rider screaming his tits off as a possum, who’s stuck in his helmet goes to town on the riders nose! Rider hits tree, pissed off psycho possum proceeds to knaw off the riders leg!!
I been on holidays so i haven't kept up with the posts and am a little late , anyhow the truth must come out (it needs to be told) you'll notice the co-conspirators are also involved in this story (IE Webby & Brownie) here goes "Many many years ago the orignal Mackeral guru was webby he had a beaut spot in a little seaside town (bowen) which he would brag to two mates(i use this term loosely) where the mackeral came in so thick you walk on em (or so he said ) anyhow brownie who can make even the most boring fishin story sound like an epic adventure, talked captain mark (as he was known then) into givin it a go!!! so out of the boat he steps on to the backs of a million swimming mackies (unbeliveable you had to see it) anyhow this great spanyaird (at least 150 lbs maybe 250 lbs if brownie is tellin the tale) tears into the school under young mark and latches onto his leg.... now amoungst all the yellin & screaming and blood flyin everywhere, webby & brownie where tryin to bash the big spanyaird ( did i mention it was now 300 lbs with Mono's leg down his gut) off with a bit of drift wood , but mark could only see his shot at the "MACKERAL GURU CROWN" so he grabed the monster (at least 320lbs with all the little mackies he got with mono's leg) in the gills and draged him back on board.......... and even though it cost him a leg ,changed his life and name he is still known as BRUNSWICKS MACKERAL KING Captain "Mono" Stewart........................................... ...... ps rumour has it that monos other leg will be made a green zone but i'm unsure as to validity of the data used to determine this.
Regards & may your ratchets keep screamin ..... BigE
Mark, tell me what year has February got 30 days in it. Seeing it is the 2nd of march I hope I am still elligible for the prize. We will be able to exchange stories as I came very close to losing mine in an accident and have some great scars to prove it. I heard you ran out of bait one day when the mackeral were on and were so keen to catch a feed. Somehow you thought it would grow back just like a muddy when they throw a claw. 'DER'
Take care and tight lines
Bulger
Don't know if anyone else noticed but response date is 30th of february, either making making my entry on the 2nd of march legal, or the fact you are called mono refers to the monocals you should be using when looking at a calender!!icmlizardman ; apligies to the bulge who I jusy noticed can also read a calender
