Now that the poll has closed, can we get the sawn off shotgun out and officially put a bullet in this thread?

Are you CrAzY?

I can see a whole new thread titled "Ask the Oracle" joking

This was meant to be light hearted and fun, which I believe it was. It coincided with your Bday (that was a fluke) but on the whole I believe that it 'perked' everyone up a bit, it was all very negative on here this week
If I caused offense, Andrew, my sincerest apologies

Just finished watching the einstein factor on the ABC
The einstein factor
I really think andrew (the oracle) should enter, special category being BMW MINI Coopers.

All my life, I have searched for a car that feels a certain way.

Hi,

mmm... a special topic of "Mini Cooper S" would have to be better than "The Saddle Club" which was one of the topics tonight. My daughter Katie was pretty good on the saddle club. I think she would also do pretty well on Mini Cooper S

However, both topics would be better than "Federal politics, Hawke and Keating era" or whatever the other topic was

Cheers

Robbo

This is not the case Mister Tux!
The role of oracle for all of us is to impart knowledge - imparting knowledge involves teaching and leading by example. Therefore the oracle was simply giving us an example of why it is not a good idea to lick the underside of an MCS bonnet.

So are their any perks to this job like sacrificing virgins or predicting the future by interpreting the entrails of slaughtered animals?

Actually I believe the traditional "Oracle" set up is alone at the top of a remarkably remote and high mountain, wearing some sort of loin cloth/robe combination and a bald head. The bonnet licking should help with the bald head! Oh, and the bones/entrails thing would probably be a goer (although the only bones/entrails you are likely to get on top of a high mountain are seagull - meinamini will probably happily supply you with all the seagulls you'll ever need)

But I think the only excitement you'll get is the occaisional wanderer, asking you the meaning of existence etc. No virgins I'm afraid! You could try for evil demi-god or something like that if you to see lots of nubile young girls. The only draw back with being the evil demi-god is that there will eventually be a warrior-hero type turn up and ransack your temple, pillage the nubile girls, and rape the goats.... Anyways he will definately know how to beat you because he will have gone to see that bl**dy Oracle before hand. *sigh* No rest for the wicked.
