Cool antipodean

Ho ..... mate....

'cause I know you are busy studying for your captains upgrade - and having done a couple of those in my days, I will assist you in some of your answers to some of the queries.

My wife tells me that I think I am the centre of the Universe, so thats a good place to start for figuring out the 4 corners of the planet. Also its a hell of a long slab wing ride to Canuk land, so that means NZ must be one of the 4 corners.

NZer = Kiwi = flightless bird. Note our redundant airforce carries this emblem. Symbolic.

HOWEVER, blatently obvious evidence to refute my thoughts is the fact that all aussies think the sun shines out their posterior.
That must place them somewhere in the east? As you can see you really have your work cut out with that little question.

While I'm on the subject. Pray tell; where does east meet west?

Hone, just concentrate on becoming Hone269C. That is enough for now ..... Personally, I want to be Steve92 or Steve26 .... dreams are free ..... eh!

Enough messing about, this is a serious question. It's been bugging me for years. Ho, you know the little label on the bar of soap? How d'you get it to stick to the bar of soap all the way down until it's a little wee runt of a thing you have to throw away? With the label still on it? Did Confucius address this? Serious now.

And what is the correct scientific name for that short period of time - about 10 seconds - which elapses between leaving the room your wife is in and her deciding the conversation hasn't actually finished and may be continued in a normal tone of voice, despite the fact that you are now in the kitchen with the radio on?

ummmm....how can you "leave the room your wife is in" and then be in the kitchen? Do you have two kitchens? Maybe your wife is doing laundry and you're getting yourself a beer.


I sure hope my wife isn't here under a pseudonym.

Question Speaking of birds:

To: Ho Lung Chun

Looking at the responses to your initial post it appears that you have taken on the identity of a Humming Gator. That is an animal that allows its’ Alligator mouth to overload its’ Hummingbird ass.

Having been in this position not too long ago I can tell you it will take some time to regain your credibility.

Brilliant!
The funniest thread I've ever seen on Rotorheads.
Well done Ho Lung Chun.
I'm sorry you're going away for a week.
Let us know when your information service is up and running again!

Oh Lord, I haven't had this good a laugh in a looong time!

The shoe polish gets the prize, but there are tons of second prizes...is this the internet equivilent of a laugh-in?

ho lung chun, I think I flew with your cousin, who rode a Cobra down to a hard landing and was then known as On Hung Lo

B sousa, don't worry, I even cracked a smile at Lu's further 18 degrees of seperation from the real world.



Thanks, ho lung chun ( I quake in fear of shortening your name) for starting this riot! The answer, BTW, is 12. That is it, I said so, and, as Archie said, Its a fact, you can look it up.

Yeah, I need to know some things...

(1) Why is a boxing ring square?

(2) Why is a Guinea Pig so called? is it from Guinea? No. Is it a member of the pig family? No.

Thanks in advance

On a more serious note is Ho Lung Chun in some fashion related to Low Hung Wang ( Hes a famous name from the Ancient and Honorable Order of E Clampus Vitus)<<<< They can be found on any internet search.
Low hung Wang was grandfather of the Too Children all of whom were girls...... Too Yung Too, Too Dumb Too, Too Fat Too, Too Old Too and Sum Fun Too.
I mean are We losing it here or what...................

If the meaning of life was a number what would it be?
Also if you had a cabin crew with names like Clarence, Roger, and Victor what would happen?

If you had cabin crew with names like those, then what would happen is that you would probably be perfecting the 5-finger shuffle on overnighters, unless you were batting for the other team.

And I'd suggest that a boxing ring is square because it's shaped like a box.

It's also a well known fact that a Guinea pig is so named because in 12th century England, you were fined one Guinea and called a deviant pig if you were found having sex with one.

(Actually, I made that last one up).

Nick has already answered one of your questions.
The answer's 12.

Ho Lung Chun's answer to Lu (with one n) at the top of page 2 still has me chuckling.

Congrats on starting a great thread Ho Lung Chun

If the answer is 42..............

& yes the 22 is a little pretentious, but I'm a helo pilot and I've always gone with the motto

If ya can't blind em with Brilliance...........baffle em with Bullsh!t.

Ho Lung Chun,

I am very disappointed. Mine were the very first questions and you don't seem to have been able to answer any of them.

I didn't think they were that difficult. Are you still doing research?

Would it help if I sent a self-addressed envelope?

p.s. sorry, that's two more questions. Didn't mean to be greedy, your great knowledgeness
