I have a question for anyone else who happens to look here. I'm just wondering, cause I've mentioned or posted about Dazza's work plenty of times for one reason or another.

How many of you have actually googled him to see if what I'm saying is true or whatever?

No reason to doubt, it's not like you're collecting money or souls.

lol no. I just wondered cause it occurred to me that I'd provided his full name on a number of occasions, so was curious about who might be curious.

I took it on faith. If you say Dazza did it, he did it. you don't lie, Ali.


We may not always agree - but you certainly don't make stuff UP.

Ali, you could tell me Dazza was the guy who invented cheese and I'd believe you... but then... I believe everyone on the cellar.

Actually, I know you're making it up, I just think it is more fun to play along.

I mean, sharks are just something we make up to thrill the tourists, like drop bears, right?

Ok. I will admit to disbelieving Zen and Ducks when they post impossible looking animals in the Animal Alphabet threat but it's only because they clearly are making animals up using some sort of computer wizardry. Plus, Zen has been known to lie a LOT since coming to the cellar. The truth hurts, Zen, but it will set you free.

and don't think I don't know about drop bears. I do know. Winnie the Pooh explained all about them only they aren't bears they are jagulars.

True, they're called that because they go straight for your jagular.

I thought they called out "Hallloooooooo!" from the tree tops and then, when you looked up, they dropped on you.

Ok, who's Trilby? Bloody name changes. I suppose I'm the only one in the dark about who it is again? lol

It's me, Brianna.

I'm feeling more like a Trilby now. It's both a hat (nice!) and the name of the woman Svenghali hypnotized into his power. I feel like Trilby sometimes when an overwhelming Evil Twin urge overcomes me and besides I think I've outgrown Brianna. I AM a you know young lady!



I'll answer to Tril, though, or Trillion. I like Trillion, too - from Douglas Adams.

Ooooh...yes. Well, Trilby is nice. We have a law firm over here called Trilby Misso. They're ambulance chasers. Each time I've seen Trilby I've thought of them. lol

Trilbo?

Its an Aussie thing, we add "bo" to the end of things....we call names "nicknames", which is weird because usually we make the original name longer, rather than shorter.
