Good news, Australians

Help is on the way.

Update: President Obama is currently visiting Australia, and Paco Enterprises' insurance subsidiary is pleased to have been chosen to provide him with coverage against crocodile attacks under our Prudential Assurance/Crocodile Offing master policy.

Shouldn't you be covered, too?

Update II:


"What do you mean, there's an outboard-motor-boat exclusion clause?"

The president tried his hand at a bit of Australian...

Sounds like he likes Australia.

Hey, here's a good idea! How about our friends down under keep him for awhile, and let him learn the language, firsthand. About a year should do it. In return, he could give their PM pointers on how to run a country.


j/k I don't hate Australia.

I may have left a letter out of "run".

How doth the little crocodile
Improve his shining tail,
And pour the waters of the Nile
On every golden scale!

How cheerfully he seems to grin,
How neatly spreads his claws,
And welcomes little fishes in
With gently smiling jaws!
-- Lewis Carroll

Ah, a fine contribution, Mojo. I am also reminded of Kipling's short story, The Undertakers.

I expect the crocodiles would find that our
Alinskyite-in-Chief is stringy and tastes like nicotine.

Can I pay for my insurance with crocodile skins?

The Australian Museum is warning about the danger of Drop Bears, aka Rogue Koalas.

"Australia! - Where the only thing the snakes are scared of is the spiders!"

Just make sure the Secret Service for those "water hazards" on the golf course. Wouldn't want to lose one of them.

In a superb example of life imitating art, a Darwin insurance company has actually announced that it will provide free crocodile insurance for his Obamaness while on his territory visit. Or is it life imitating art? Every so often I get the feeling that the jokey evil master corporation Paco Inc is actually an elaborate cover for something that really exists - being too clever this time Paco?

Carter had his killer rabbit, Obama gets killer crocodiles.
