he was eating a sammy. this proves BJ is wrong. ghosts dont need to eat.

may be that's what he was eating before his heart attack.. any food he would have had for brekkie would have got lost in the bushes, so it wouldn't have been found.. so it was just the on-going spirit of his sammy.. long live cheese

I think I saw Ernie this morning, but I just want to make sure that the blessing of the Church of Ernie is upon me before I slip out to get my Lotto ticket.

Is he a Maori bloke who with a black beanie, padded jacket and jeans (Ernie may be the patron saint of Bogans) with a folding chair, situated about 300 metres west of the Bond St bridge on the path that goes from there to the Springs?

If so, he didn't wave back, but that may have been due to the angle of the Sun, the slight chill in the air that kept his hands under his armpits (better him than me) or his total indifference (how have I offended thee Ernie?).

"Gloria in excelsis Ernie"
or "Choice, bro"

I came along the slow lane (actually turning off at Newton)... he looked right at me a gave a wave - I waved back and laughed all the way to work.

SAWEET!

Kinda feels like we're getting to know him... strange but true

Hell I hope not - coz I'd have been running his dog over...

Washing guts off the bike's not my idea of fun - but if you can't tell when you done - what chance have I got.

OH NO - MAYBE ERNIE HATES ME NOW!

Time will tell - lets see if he is still smiling in his stoned friendly kind of way tomorrow
