              Well Google seems to point to an Aussie standup act. Of course I thought Paul Hogan was the only aussie comedian. :-D Michael :-)

More someone who plays on irony and piss taking. The comedian is Adam Hill who I believe lives in Dublin. A regular at the Edinburugh (spelling?) Comedy/Fringe Festival who tours England and Europe. A couple of years ago this became his catchphrase after an audience member yelled it out during a show. He encouraged everyone at his shows to continue to use this phrase everyday. There was a news item last year reportijng this as a phenomenom that was taking off. He was on TV tonight, so I thought I would test CP members to see how much of a phenomenom this was. Not much it seems. :-D Michael Martin Australia mjm68@tpg.com.au "He orginally got the Tweezers of Destruction through the scanners but then popped back outside for a smoke." - Chris Maunder 26/03/2002

Seems to be down south in Melbourne and Adelaide but not up this way. Better look a couple of threads lower and see the corrections on the beer sizes you posted.

He encouraged everyone at his shows to continue to use this phrase everyday. There was a news item last year reportijng this as a phenomenom that was taking off. I do believe that Michael Armitage (an until-recently member of South Australian parliament) actually used it in the house (to much laughter from those who know Adam Hills and much confusion to the other 99.9% of politicians). I believe it was something about the state of SA's economy, which he attempted to encourage single-handedly with a cry of "go you big red fire engine"! ------------------------ Derek Waters derek@lj-oz.com
