    I wave to him every morning I see him, and get a wave back. Ho wmany religions can boast that much direct contact with their deities?

    I mean you don't see Kali standing there with a beer in each of her 8 hands, Thor waving his hammer round, Mithras performing a ritual sacrifice of a bull or that bloke on the cross waving at us do you??? (alright, it'd be a bit hard for Jesus to wave, but you get the general idea)

    Any pics or ernie? Surely there should be a prize for the first KB'er who walks up to him and talks to him
    To every man upon this earth
    Death cometh sooner or late
    And how can a man die better
    Than facing fearful odds
    For the ashes of his fathers
    And the temples of his Gods

    hell, anyone who can talk to a spirit is gifted enough.. on film tho, spirits usually show, so might work.. I believe that his pic might come out a little like this..

    What, and ruin a good myth? He could become mortal, and then where would we be?

    Anyway, I used to jog along that track on the way home (when I was a lot fitter) and it scared the willes out of me then. if I had to do it in the knowledge that some weirdo is weaitig for me, I'd shit meself

    Here's the deal, you meet with Enrie on the walking track, and I'll take the piccies from the other side of the motorway. Course if he goes you, I won't be able to help, but we'll make damn sure the conviction sticks eh?

    I can't prove that I exist. And sometimes I have grave doubts. maybe Ernie could confirm that I don't .

    Wonder if we can hijack this thread into a Descartian debate.

    people should stop off an give him stuff, like if you got some chips left from fish an chips, or something, save them an give them to him for breakfast, he would be like, mmmm cold chips with my beer/turps in beer bottles, an talk to him like you know him, an your old buddies an shit,
    or even bring him a possum thats been run over down the road so he doesnty have to walk all the way up the motorway looking for food,
    he might even offer you a beer next time you stop,

    make him really feel a part of the kb site, a site he would have no idea exists, or the net.
