Anyways if they think its a knock on them they have missed the point. It's more about asking for generational change to fit the times.

That's what I got out of it. I thought it was pretty obvious but the Boomers having a crack probably see it as a knock on what they've worked for their entire life for, only reading the negatives and not the points that balance it out.

 

[Howard Moon]

Have to be careful make sweeping generalisations too I guess!

 

[Doss]

The Guy from watoday goes to me.....if I were you wouldht go into the comments section today, boomers have teed off.

That was completely predictable...

 

[Howard Moon]

I suppose another thing is they are the generation who actually still read these types of publications and have the time to reply.

The newer generations have a bigger distrust of the mainstream media.

 

[GUMBLETRON]

If boomers weren't entirely oblivious to the fact they won the historical lottery, they wouldn't be boomers.

Little man's birthday cake...we may have aimed too high...

I'll take orders though

 

[Pweter]

That's a hell of an idea, and probably easier than a dinosaur cake or something like that.

You're screwed for next year now - how are you going to top that?

 

[Howard Moon]

Maybe cakes are out of fashion next year

Outstanding!!
My nephew is obsessed with trucks and sweets, he would start frothing at the mouth if he saw this.
He's also the biggest gutz I've ever seen, and could easily polish off the whole thing in one sitting, including the truck.

 

[Howard Moon]

Worked out well, after the song every kid grabbed chocs out the back of the truck, wasnt by design but a good idea

I actually thought you meant you had an idea and came across a piece based on the same thing.

 

[Howard Moon]

Ahhh, well I guess real names aren't used here so was possible

I just think of you as Howard.

Considering adding a bombers logo to my ink collection but deciding which one is difficult

Considering adding a bombers logo to my ink collection but deciding which one is difficult

1. This one would make a great talking point, classic EFC heritage:



2. This is the one I grew up with and it still resonates thanks to the flags I enjoyed under it as a kid:



3. This is what I'm now used to but it's also associated with the worst period in the history of our club. If we maintain it and have success on the back of the lessons of ASAGA I'd never want it to change as it would symbolise the rebirth of our club



Due to being an old coot (I'll be joining you in the 40 club in a few weeks) I'd probably go number 2, debatable whether I'd keep the VFL logo on it though. If we do have this successful rebirth of the club then I could always get number 3 because why not!

At the end of the day you get tatoos for you. Do what you're most comfortable with for whatever reasons you like. What I've said here is simply my take on it if I were to do so.

 

[Bennett.]

Yeah I was tending towards 2. Maybe have to come up with something different.

Had a situation this morning where four people arrived at the four entry points of a roundabout at the same time. We all just looked at each other.
