calling all Americans!

My American friends,
I must warn you, especially you who live south US. There's two Aussie guys you need to watch for, when I say watch out I mean it's better to avoid. They're names' Hamish Blake & Andy Lee, mostly go by Hamish & Andy, they're radio hosts over here. Very mischievous pair. Currently they're on this 'journey' across the USA, east to west. It's called 'The Caravan of Courage' they just travel from place to place playing tricks on each other. I know I'm a little bit late since they left Miami on Monday, but better late than never, right? I'm not sure where they are right now but they'll be through Louisiana, Alabama, Texas & I'm sure they'll be at Vegas by the end of the week. Finishing in L.A.

Just thought you guys should know. Btw, They named their caravan AbraVAN Lincoln.

Re: calling all Americans!

Hi Tigeree;

They probably won't survive my Daddy's home state, Alabama. In case they do I'm warning the boys, we'll be ready for them.

Re: calling all Americans!

There are no crazy people in Texas, just Texans. Anyway Bama comes before Texas, so they have first dibs.

Re: calling all Americans!

yeah I know, if they survive Alabama, they'll have to deal with Texans (crazy). Then again Hamish & Andy are crazy too, so I think they'll get along just fine. smile

Re: calling all Americans!

Hi Tigeree;

Late breaking news! They've been captured, tried and hung. Woops, they hung the wrong guys, so Hamish and Andy are still on the loose. Let's hope, we fare better over here at ending this menace.

Hi Tigeree;

Thats what I mean, we let them into our country and the first thing they do is take mud racing spots away from the people who live here.

Re: calling all Americans!

Update: When they were in Alabama Andy went head on with some gridiron boys and got his top lip pierced by one of his bottom tooth, but last time I heard of them they were getting drunk with some Texans. That was yesterday, I think.

Re: calling all Americans!

Traitorous Texans, consorting with the enemy. We're ready for them, here! Have erected a giant force field to keep them out. Outside the force field is a huge moat, swarming with man eating alligators.

Hi Tig;

So ends the long journey of Hamish and Andy. We can only hope that wherever they are now that they are in a better place.

Hi Tigeree;

Well, at least we kept them out of here. If it wasn't for you warning me who knows what would have happened.

Hi Tigeree;

That was a cover story. Upon entering town they we're captured and sent to a top secret installation (which shall go nameless). There they were cloned and the originals put in a large vat. The two clones continued on their journey with no one the wiser. There is only one way to tell that they are clones.

Now I'm scared... I don't want clones in my country! If I did I'd create clones myself... Mwahahahah! Umm... That was a typo.

Hi;

Cosmetically yes, but these are identical in every way. Except they now go by the name of Amish and Handy.
