  1. A *paraprosdokian* is a figure of speech in which the latter part of a sentence or phrase is surprising or unexpected in a way that causes the reader or listener to reframe or reinterpret the first part. It is frequently used for humorous or dramatic effect, sometimes producing an anticlimax . For this reason, it is extremely popular among comedians and satirists -. Examples are:- • I asked God for a bike, but I know God doesn't work that way. So I stole a bike and asked for forgiveness. • Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience. • I want to die peacefully in my sleep, like my grandfather.. Not screaming and yelling like the passengers in his car. • Going to church doesn't make you a Christian any more than standing in a garage makes you a car. • The last thing I want to do is hurt you. But it's still on the list. • Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak. • If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong. • We never really grow up, we only learn how to act in public. • War does not determine who is right - only who is left. • Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit; Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad. • Politicians and diapers have one thing in common. They should both be changed regularly, and for the same reason. • The early bird might get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese. • Evening news is where they begin with 'Good evening', and then proceed to tell you why it isn't. • To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism. To steal from many is research. • If God is watching us, the least we can do is be entertaining. • A bus station is where a bus stops. A train station is where a train stops. On my desk, I have a work station. • If you think nobody cares if you're alive, try missing a couple of payments. • How is it one careless match can start a forest fire, but it takes a whole box to start a campfire? • Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish? • I thought I wanted a career; turns out I just wanted pay checks. • A bank is a place that will lend you money, if you can prove that you don't need it. • Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night. • I didn't fight my way to the top of the food chain to be a vegetarian. • I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you. • Why does someone believe you when you say there are four billion stars, but still have to touch when you say the paint is wet? • Women will never be equal to men until they can walk down the street with a bald head and a beer gut, and still think they are sexy. • Why do Americans choose from just two people to run for president and 50 for Miss America? • Behind every successful man is his woman. Behind the fall of a successful man is usually another woman. • A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory. • You do not need a parachute to skydive. You only need a parachute to skydive twice. • The voices in my head may not be real, but they have some good ideas! • Always borrow money from a pessimist. He won't expect it back. • Hospitality: making your guests feel like they're at home, even if you wish they were. • Money can't buy happiness, but it sure makes misery easier to live with. • I discovered I scream the same way whether I'm about to be devoured by a great white shark or if a piece of seaweed touches my foot. • Change is inevitable, except from a vending machine.
  2. maybe every club member should put one on their car

  8. hey munro my old boy has allways had 4WD campers purely to use off road, baught a hybrid camper/van and was way to wide for bush tracks. he has thought about motor home with 4WD and roof top tent on trailer but cost is too much. I think motor home with virata and rooftop tent on trailer would be best situation so travel in comfort 90% of time then leave motorhome in caravan park etc and go bush with the vitara

  16. i lost mine a year after the offence was commited as paper wrk was lost, and thought nothing of it at the time.my main problems was how can the court take your licence off you then if you have lost more tha 12 points including the time allready had licence taken off you, then loose it again from motor reg? dosnt seem fair that you get penalised twice. I agree i did the wrong thing and coped it on the chin but then to loose again because of motor reg was a kick in the guts
