There goes the Trifecta!!!
I was really hoping that 2007 would be the year that I would realise my ULTIMATE trifecta, ie:
1. The Howard Govt to be booted into oblivion.
2.South Sydney win the NRL premiership.
3.Darth would go back to his Wagga pub to do what he does best.... pull beers !!!!
But whoa is me...........news has just come in that #3 is unwinnable!!!!
I suppose 2 out of 3 won't be bad.
