Tiggum posted:Do you know that he didn't know anything about Hulk Hogan or are you just assuming that Australians in general don't? Because we get WWE on TV and I think Hulk Hogan is probably as well-known here as in America (which is to say less so now than in the '90s). I've even seen Suburban Commando on TV.  quote:A very green rookie wrestler named Hulk Hogan toured Japan several times with Andre and witnessed the Giant’s alcohol consumption first hand. According to Hogan, Andre drank, at a minimum, a case of tall boys during each bus ride. When he finished a can Andre would belch, crush the can in his dinner-platter-sized hand, and bounce the empty off the back of Hogan’s head. Hogan learned to count each thunk, so he could anticipate when Andre was running low. Whenever the bus stopped, it was Hogan’s job to scamper off to the nearest store, buy as many cases of beer as he could carry, and make it back before the bus departed, a sight that never failed to make Andre roar his bassoon-like laugh. I will never get tired of this story.

RandomFerret posted:What really gets me is that the dude was Australian and barely knew a thing about Hulk Hogan or wrestling. He just wanted those meat shoes to be real, so he made it happen. A foreigner who, like so many before him, caught some small glimpse of the American dream and decided to make himself a part of it. As an Australian who grew up in the 80s, at that time Hulk Hogan was more famous here than Paul Hogan, no joke. Sing along everybody! http://www.sing365.com/music/lyric....825717A000733F1

True Story: In one of my B. Ed. classes, we were looking at books meant for young children, and I spotted one by Rosemary Wells. I commented aloud "Oh this is by that woman who created that awful Max and Ruby show." One girl in my class suddenly burst out with "GOD RUBY IS A loving oval office!" Cue massive silence, while she realizes what she just said and claps her hand over her mouth cartoonishly. Finally someone said "At least someone had the balls to say it."

There are alot of more stories of him in the Modern Drunkard Magazine http://www.drunkard.com/issues/10_06/10_06_andre_giant.html quote:First, consider the number 7,000. It’s an important number, and a rather scary one considering its context, which is this—it has been estimated that Andre the Giant drank 7,000 calories worth of booze every day. The figure doesn’t include food. Just booze.

He could be bringing it in just to show it off! When I worked a tech store old guys would always bring some old tech in to show off and shoot the poo poo with us.

Or he could be recycling it. I'm pretty sure that Apple stores (as do a lot of stores nowadays) accept old computers to be recycled.

me your dad posted:No he's probably delusional and about to die. I worked in a Mac store back when those were current (I think its 7200 series?), but back then old guys would roll in with Mac Plus and Mac 512s and then get angry when we couldn't repair them or sell them new software. So you're probably right.

They need to rotate the hood so the hole isn't above her, then, since she can't look up.

No, I was referring to the "fact" that dogs can't look up. It was a joke, albeit possibly not a great one.
