The Never Ending Story

[turboplanner]

............as she is.

There was a faint indication from bull's description of the Queensland Premier that there could be the slightest bad blood there somewhere.

Anyway he had refocused on the 50,000 Quarantine centre.

The Achilles Heel in the project was that there weren't 50,000 people or even one city in AA, and no nationals to round up, let alone an AA language or an AA flag for for that matter a government to pay for the cost, so .................

[onetrack]

.....OT decided the 50,000 people he would transport to AA for quarantine would all become honorary AA citizens, and English would be the AA official language, as English is the language of Science and Medicine (you don't find scientific or medical theses in the Inuktitut language, do you? Yes, I thought so!) - and the AA flag would be the Yellow Jack with a white border added, to represent both quarantine and the AA landscape.

 

OT called up Turbo about assistance with financing the quarantine station on AA - which Turbo was reluctant to do at first - until OT explained how a captive market and audience of 50,000 for Turbine Industries products would be a Godsend to his companys finances overall - whereby Turbo immediately offered $100M to assist with the construction of the station.

 

Cappy was quite disappointed he'd missed out on a major opportunity to further his career by becoming involved in the quarantine station from the outset, but OT consoled him by offering him a job package that included a $250K salary, a large office, a secretary, a hot line to ScoMo, and a jacket with imposing gold braid, epaulettes and rank insignia, that far outranked any Rear Admiral - even African ones.

 

Cappy was stunned by this offer, and accepted it with alacrity, pleased that at long last, he would........

[turboplanner]

........be able to dress like his ancestor, Captain James Cook, who always wore a Rear Admiral's jacket and moleskins with a tight crutch.

 

Turbo had agreed to invest because he would get his money back in "Catskin" (c) clothing, and this would also pay for the final transfer of the original Rodds Bay Cat Farm to Deloraine in Tasmania where there was a lovely stream to provide water and carry away the waste, and the fur would grow lush. The Problem with the Queensland farm was that mange is endemic to Queensland and mangy cat fur is hard to sell and has to be discounted. As people from the other States know when they go on holidays, Queensland people have much less hair and if you look closely you'll see the brown tint of mange. This is why there's such a problem with people trying to cross the Queensland border to get to work. All the shop assistants and tour guides have to come from NSW or the tourists would baulk at the theme park rides, and ...................

 

[Turbo respectfully ever so slightly disagrees with OT. I his oil industry days, Turbo ran a drilling rig on  Inuktitut Island, where no English was spoken and Turbo had a hard time getting riggers to do what he wanted until he started belting them with Stilsons until he learnt the laguage. Turbine Drilling had hired the world-famous Professor Iqualuit Iglulik to do the prospecting analysis on the grounds that he lived only 3 miles away and he worked for $15/day. The good professor who was also an Epidemeologist (so we can quote him) wrote dozens of theses on Oil Exploration in the Arctic Circle, all written in  Inuktitut, and these are held in the Smithsonian]

......... attitude that she will protect all Queenslanders from the Rona and Queensland is for Queenslanders .......... except where we need tourist dollars and GST from the rest of OZ ............... just like the Antarctic Quarantine Facility (the AQF) is for Antarcticans.

 

bull's last post has triggered a lot of excitement in Mextoria and in Ochre/Sand-ville and Turbine I + Trackbine Industries started to put together their proposals to run and maintain the AQF (after all it is only Turbine I that would know the cost of keeping a 50,000 bed facility warm in Antarctic temperature (as that is similar to keeping an old folks home warm in Geelong). When Turbs drafted his proposal he also omitted the bit about locating Rona +ve patients back into the facility [This is what is known in the old-folks trade as the Andrews/Cuomo doctorine].

 

Onesie really wanted the contract so he ..........

As a result, Capt Cook had no problem wearing the moleskins with the tight crutch, because everything inside his moleskins had shrunk to one quarter their size, at the point of crossing the AC.

 

However, it was when Cappy started parading around in the white moleskins with the tight crutch, trying to emulate his famous ancestor, that he was besieged by a horde of schoolgirls, who mistakenly thought he was one of the more famous rock stars (who are prone to wear white jeans with a tight crutch).

 

But when Cappy protested and shooed the girls away, and the schoolgirls suddenly realised their mistake, they all..........

Now Cappy may be a Rat (Julia, who runs the Cloncurry CWA's & Aero Club's B&S Ball, used to call him Cappy-Bara .... so he can be very dangerous when cornered - see T-shirt below) but he can also move like a Cat, particularly when the lead is flying, so he coughed up a hairball and immediately .....

Note - The TSTC are not to be confused with the Trackbine Shakespeare Players Company (the less well established TSPC) who have their Theatre in the Round (TitR) behind the 15th sandhill after you leave Perth heading for Geraldton.

 

Further fun fact - Onesie himself was known, in his earlier years, as a TitRer.

.....their version of MacBeth for an upcoming show in the new Darraweit Guim multi-storey Performing Arts Centre (which was recently built in record time and under budget by Trackbine Industries).

 

The MacBeth story is based on Cappys life and political ambitions, and dramatises the damaging physical and psychological effects of political ambition on those who seek power purely for its own sake.

 

Cappy's poor physical and psychological condition today, can be directly sheeted home to his ruthless driving ambition, which has led to him committing......
