Last night Hamo, Phil, Dan and I had dinner together. I know Phil and Dan pretty well but meeting Hamo was a first for us all.
I really enjoyed the conversation which spanned, blogging (of course!!), Emerging Church (Hamo is planting and Phil and Dan are doing some very innovative and new stuff) and other miscellaneous topics.
I had chicken risotto - yum - and of course the highlight of the night for us all was to be seated next to a table with Anthony Koutoufides (Kouta) who is one of Aussie Rules Football's most famous players from the best team in the league. Phil and Dan tried to hide their excitement but I could tell they were impressed.

Knowing Phil and Dans black&white leanings I suspect a meeting with Kouta to be somewhat behind somewhat behind meeting one of this lot

Darren, even though I chatted with Mil Hanna (well, I asked him for a menu) I remain unimpressed by all except the company around our little table.

A family of Collingwood supporters head out one Saturday to do their Christmas shopping. While in Rebel Sports the son picks up a Carlton
footy jumper and says to his 10 year old sister,
"I've decided to become a Carlton supporter and I would like this for Christmas".
His sister, outraged by this, promptly whacks him round the head with her carton of Winfields and says, "Go talk to your mother".
Off goes the little lad with the Carlton footy jumper in hand and finds his mother.
"Mum?"
"Yes son?"
"I've decided I'm going to be a Carlton supporter and I would like this jumper for Christmas".
The mother is outraged at this and throws her moccasins and a full stubbie of VB at him, promptly whacks him around the head and says, "lets go talk to your father".
Off they go to Pentridge during visiting hours with footy jumper in hand and find Bubba, his father.
"Dad?"
"Yes son?"
"I've decided I'm going to be a Carlton supporter and I would like this jumper for Christmas". The father is outraged and promptly whacks his son around the head with his dildo and says, "No son of mine is ever going to be seen in THAT!"
About half an hour later they're all back in the car and heading towards home (the remand centre). The mother turns to his son and says "Son, I hope you've learned something today?"
The son says, "Yes knackers I have."
"Good son, what is it?"
The son replies, "I've only been a Carlton supporter for an hour and already I hate you Collingwood pricks.
