Is it bad manners to gloat? Yes. So I will.
Windy gets scuttlebutted.
Windschuttle, meanwhile, argues that only the name of the author was fake. “A real person wrote that article.”
But in two busy hours yesterday he [Windschuttle] was able to satisfy himself the article was “only 10 to 15 per cent invented. When I discovered that my gloom and embarrassment changed completely.”
"But," says li'l Keef, "there's a real person inside that suit, so you lot can't tell me there's no Santa. Well, OK then, but at least only 10 to 15 per cent of Santa is invented".
In the 'Cooking Stuff Up' section of the next issue of Quadrant, Iron Chef Keith proves there was no Stollen Generation.

"Jeez, I luvs youse maaaate!"
Bush to present highest civilian honour to Howard.
In one if his final acts as US President, George Bush will present former Australian prime minister John Howard with America’s highest civilian honour, the Medal of Freedom, for his role as a “staunch ally”.
How piquant is it that John Winston joins (not in the biblical sense, one hastens to add) Doris Day as a fellow Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient.
Doris is well known for her role in the fillum, Annie Oakley 'Annie Getcha AK47' (correction courtesy of acting honorary sub editor, Mr Wigan Gown via comments) in which she sang “You Can’t Get a Man with a Gun”.
“And you can’t get a hug
From a mug with a slug,
Oh you can’t get a man with a gun.”
However, George apparently did - in spades.
Reckon there should be another award, the "Presidential Medal of Freedom - Eventually". David Hicks might be a dandy candidate.
