?ÿA journalist gets sent from his office in Sydney down to Tasmania to find a "feel good" story from the quiet side of Oz for the people living in the rat race.
?ÿHe arrives in a quaint little village and walks into the only pub in town. He sits down next to a six fingered slob-of-a-man and explains his mission.
?ÿ"Yeah I've got a feel good story for you blokes up there in the big smoke. A few years back one of the farmers came in and said that one of his sheep had escaped it's paddock and was lost. He was panicking because he'd heard a Tasmanian Devil screaming the night before. So, we rounded up a search party and went looking for the lost sheep. We found it during the night and brought it back."
"That's a great story! A community coming together in a time of crisis!" said the journo, furiously taking notes.
"Yeah yez don't get that sort of help up north do yez?"
"Not really, no."
"Yeah so on the way back we all took turns fucken the sheep."
"Jesus!! I can't print that!" shrieks the journo. So, up he gets and sits next to another fella along the bar.
"Excuse me mate, would you happen to have a feel good story for me?"
"Sure! Last week, Stewart from down the road there.....his pig got out. Ran straight for the hills and got lost! So we all got together and went after it."
"Right......."
"Yep. Then, on the way back, Stew let us all have turn........"
"Yeah, thanks for your time champ......"
The journo gets up and rolls on over to a table where a man is sitting alone staring thoughtfully into his pint glass.
" 'Scuse me mate, would you happen to have a feel good story for me?"
"Nah. But I got lost last week. Won't be doin' that again."
Keep those jokes coming. They frighten off the mainlanders from the big north island. ?????ÿ
Have attempted to retell that story about 20 times over the past week.
"Have attempted to retell that story about 20 times over the past week."
You weren't chewin' on a huge "cud" while trying to talk were you? That would explain it. In many previous discussions with bovines they usually spit the cud out or swallow it prior to discussion. ?????ÿ

And in today's headlines:
Australia's Fair Work Commission found the female project manager was unfairly sacked, and ruled that getting drunk and vomiting at after-work drinks did not justify her dismissal.
Commissioner Ian Cambridge said "if one act of inoffensive drunkenness?ÿat an after-work function provided valid reason for dismissal, I suspect that the majority of Australian workers may have potentially lost their jobs".
Just had a humor flashback of this while reading the news
