Aussie Yobbo instructor needed

Dear cafe friends,

I may have unintentionally offended native Australians in my efforts to get Michael Moore a vacation.

I would rather lose body parts than offend native Australians.

Are there, at this cafe, any yobbo instructors -- I find when I learn a peoples' language, I learn a great deal about the people. And English is un peu boring for me, n'est pas?

Also, one at a time: I am emailing every Australian Reiki Cafe member with an email address in this cafe for feedback and support. It may take some time; but I want to get my facts straight: I am a serious farcical writer.

I have a Validation Training Institute meeting in Cleveland Sunday, but will be home to read my emails Monday morning.

~

Blessings to all.

And all offended Australians please read my prayer on The Healing Request Board.


In the light,

Dale A. Beaulieu

Hi Dale

Yobbo = an uncouth person
Pommie or pom = English born person
Do You really want an Australian uncouth person intructor ?

LOL

Yes Rob, I think he does.
I may be of "pommie" descent (does that mean they lowered themselves?)
but I was too "couth' to be of any help

For me, a farcical, satirical journalist of the "A Modest Propsal" Swiftonian-type variety, an Australian uncouth personal instructor sounds hopelessly overqualified, but I will take all applicants.

gladly

hehehe

Rob, any feedback on my Anthing But Reiki article?

I am wanting to publish it if the Australian gov/t protects farce as intensely as we do in the US of A.

Hi Dale
I thought all govenments were steeped in farce.
We have just had a major dose of it in the UK. It is called the Hutton Report.

The BBC are to blame for everything, apparently, and our "goventment?" are all angels (LOL) who have no blame for anything that has gone wrong, Ever. (LOL).

I would say go for publishing it. The rape of our enviroment is a serious subject, and at time humour gets serious subjects better noticed. From what I have read about this one. Money seems to be the driving force. It will be cheaper to ruin forests and all, than to pipe the water from a place of plenty without doing to much damage.

Best of luck

Rob

Hi Rob,

Loved the wonderful post.

Are you saying the Hutton Report was written by Yobbos?

Just back from a board meeting in Cleveland for VTI.

INCREDIBLE experience, though we ran into lots of snow. I love belly-laughs about blubbering, ineffectual yanks or their equally blubbering, ineffectual UK counterparts.

Just in case I run out of farcical material (LOL) could you send me some of the Hutton Report ideas that make you (I am just learning LOL and stuff) ROOTFL (Is that *roll* over one the floor laughing?)?

You know, the cat's meow (English equivalent to THE BEST)! or just the highlight - or in this case funniest!


I warn you, if you aren't laughing while you type it to me, I will be deeply, profoundly disappointed.

On publishing ...

Wendy warns me that it is the Sin Against the Holy Spirit to offend an Australian native (parapharse Roman Catholic translation).

Which is why if ONE person from Australia/from this cafe protests my Michael Moore article, it will never see the sunshiine in any now-existing professional publication/journal.

I have 30 emails sent to Aussie cafe members, and many more to do. I learnt at the University of Kansas and as a reporter, getting the facts straight is important.

Love to hear from you, Rob.

Blessings and joy to you, those you love & all you do,

Dale A. Beaulieu
