"Especially given that this is a unisex college, you are reminded of the need for appropriate behaviour in the sleeping quarters. Anyone who needs to blow their nose will use a tissue - there will be no hanky panky in the dormitories."

When on kitchen duty, the hunchback of Notre Dame treated potatoes like bells: they were there to be pealed.

"That's disgusting! Gah!"
She stormed out of the room.
"Gah."
She scratched her head.
"Gah. Gah."
She inclined her head thoughtfully.
"GA-GA RUM-UM-AH-AH!"
And thus a star was born...

The pressure was on in the casino's restaurant. The steaks were high and the chips were down.
The man rifling through the garbage bins at the back and the confident card player inside had one thing in common: they both had one hand in the bag.
Meanwhile, a job interview was taking place in the back room.
Q: What will you do when the chips are down?
A: Apply the five second rule.

I have news of a recent advancement in seal clubbing technology. The latest clubs are fitted with a button that pops up when the seal is broken.

A friend just told me:
"It's good to see that the penguin in your blog is moving up in the marine world to sitting atop whales, because we already knew that the pen-guin was mightier than the sword-fish."

As I was waiting at the tram stop yesterday, a balloon, buffeted by the wind, found its way into the middle of the road. The light was red. I watched horrified, fascinated, but helpless in its plight.
The lights turned green. As the motors roared, it shifted about half a metre, until it was directly in line with the approaching tyre of a blue Holden sedan. Years from now, I will relive that scene, and wonder whether I could have saved a life by calling out a warning. But hindsight is always 20/20.
The whole world went into slow motion. I saw it before it happened. And, for a brief, happy moment, I thought that the car might be buoyed up and pass over, leaving the balloon unharmed. But both logic and gravity have neither hearts nor sympathy.
Like a male widow spider, it popped and perished.

I went to a tableware magic show. There was a saucerer with a dishy assistant. But they were shattered when the audience realised that it was all a crock.

How to make a "that's what she said joke" even when it seems impossible:
1. Wait for someone to say something for which the reply "that's what she said" would not work at all.
2. Say, somewhat halfheartedly, "That's what she said."
3. The person will reply, "That doesn't work." (Or something similar. Usually.)
4. Say, triumphantly, "That's what she said!"

When people discriminate against you for being Swedish, ignore them. Don't let haters bring you down. You were Bjorn this way, baby.

It appears that the world has not ended. I'm disappointed because I had a line ready: "Cut, print, that's a wrap-ture!"

One day when I was at school, I walked into class ten minutes late. I declared, "I'm here: let the party begin."
My friend replied, "You know, as soon as you arrive, we hide all the balloons and streamers and shit."

I heard some music with a walking bass line accented with rhythms on the upbeat. Now I am ska'd for life.

My sister presented me with a three-part critique of my logo:
1. That is not a porpoise.
2. That is a killer whale.
3. That penguin is lunch.
