Dear Jack

Shut up

Superb decision. And may I add that the topic was also remarkable in that Waterford simply wasn’t able to weave in mention of his connection with the land through long-ago farming ancestors who scratched out a living somewhere out west – something he has somehow managed to mention in every column he has ever written!

The only problem with this particular recipient is that Jack will be absolutely chuffed by this award!

I love that you got the month wrong for The Queen.

Come on Johnboy, surely such a coveted trophy deserves 30 seconds and a little metho/turps to clean off the incorrect Nov and put in Oct properly.

Grubby hubcap trophy I can live with, but getting wrong the month of Her Majesty’s Graceful Visitation is a problem for me.
But how do you clean off permanent marker without removing the layer of character dirt?

With a re-dirt applicator.
All the professional trophy makers use it.

RiotACT should be applauded. This is the most attention Jack W has had for at least twenty years. Whenever I think my life is crap, I just reflect on how much worse it would be to be Jack, hanging on to yesterday’s relevance and the days when the CT was a real newspaper.

But what happens when all the spokes bear the name of a luminary?
Think ahead and send out the work experience guy to ‘find’ a few more.
He’ll take the rap for the team, surely.

I remember! Sigh. Such days they were.

We’ll probably just go to Tiny’s and buy another three hubcaps at $3 a pop and create an expanded base.

Endless supply nailed to a tree in Fyshwick.

. . . not to mention the owners of Toorak Tractors.
