Victoria Australia weather versus Queensland Australia weather...

Melbourne: Fallen tress across roads, drivers beware.

Queensland: Drivers beware, give way to CROCS!!!

Queensland floods: 3.5m crocodile crosses Bruce Highway: bit•ly/2MH7vdl

I must be a bit stupid, or, possibly because I stay in Bulgaria the "joke" is lost on me.

But, what has this to do with LiveCode?

I wonder if "gratuitously off-topic" is quite what is meant by "Off-topic"
on a Forum dedicated to LiveCode?

Or maybe you just enjoy being provocative for some unknown reason.

Whoa, hold your horses... No harm meant, according to the rules...

"The purpose of this forum is allow free, off-topic talk on just about any subject. The rules against abusive behavior that you agreed to be registered on this website still apply."

But I will pull me head in if you want me, sorry to bother!

If my post doesn't belong please remove and let me know, I really don't want to upset anyone.

davemarkturk, have you ever heard the old saw "take this with a grain of salt" ?

In Richmond's case, he *is* the salt. And old salt at that. Your post is fine here, and the post itself is funny :D

Thank you.

I forgot to add I'm also a casual comedian, with two minor events under my belt.

I thought it was amusing too. I'd be surprised if a post about LC did appear in the off topic area. No harm done.
