A lively market in recycled coke and fanta bottles sprung up, and an entirely new design of bum-bags was deployed, allowing the populace to carry both orange and white wigs at all times. Staff on the International Space Station took to filming Xi's day-to-day wig changes, the ripples of orange to white or white to orange spreading visibly across the nation as the news spread. But after lights out, something far more sinister began to happen: at first streets, then neighbourhoods, then entire districts polarised into whites or oranges. The Leadership tried many things: alternating wig days, no wig days, both wig days, but when an entire orange district vanished one night, leaving only their orange wigs atop street lights and telegraph poles, and surrounding whites dancing in the streets.....

And so it was several days before the lovely Sylvia in her nicely fitted jumpsuit went looking for fresh yoghurt, and found herself gazing into his glazed eyeballs. Being not only an astroperson, but a woman of her time, her first impulse was to try and stare him down. When this didn't work she slammed the door, as a means of buying time while reconsidering her strategy by adjusting the zipper on her jumpsuit. And it was only after several adjustments of the zipper, during all of which Rocky's eyeballs remained frozenly on her face, that she began to suspect something was horribly wrong....

The Spratly Islands are a series of Islands in the South China Sea, lying off the coasts of the Philippines, Malaysia and Vietnam. The Chinese have claimed ownership, and with the help of Australia have built a spectacular airfield, coincidentally long enough to take their fighter aircraft, which have small engines. Australian reporter Emily Lee and cameraman Wing Ho recently travelled to the Spratlys to interview the airport maintenance manager, General Ho Lee who said “We imported the dirt from Australia to build it. Took 30 years, and you Australians charged us like it was gold!” “It was Iron Ore”, said Emily and........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the city of Wagga Wagga, often shortened by locals to “Wagga”, and more recently “Wag”, sat a disconsolate locksmith picking his nose. He had been an Australian Coastwatcher in the Pacific during WW2, and in the process had discovered a hidden cache of aircraft parts on Bora Bora. The parts were for Chance Vought Corsair fighter aircraft. He never told anyone and after the war wrote a story about Spifires being buried in Burma to throw people off the scent, but he needed people to assemble the parts and he needed people to fly them.
