Man, didn't he read those signs that say "Do not make jokes about bombs?"
Maybe they weren't written in Australian.

Or maybe too much steroids have eroded precious brain cells?
pretty stupid move...

|  #6 Posted on 20.2.03 2033.20 | yes it is.
Down here we find it totally acceptable to make light of any situation as long as you don't imply your mates are gay, since making light of any serious situation is considored an australian pastime.
at no point are threats taken seriously since the only time there is tension is when you spill your mates beer. then you get into a brawl, apologize the next day and get pissed together.
(and no there aren't bomb joke signs in Australia.)
although i do agree that its badly timed, it's just a very australian blue collar joke taken the wrong way and everyone is the worse off for it

| #9 Posted on 20.2.03 2152.09 | funny thing right now is that Triple M (Australian radio station) is bagging Jones out (although they're not mentioning his connection to wrestling) over this very issue.
Australian Humor= Bad Joker gets arrested so a media forum makes worse jokes about the previous bad jokes until a cycle of pointlessness ensues.... which we luagh at.
Ah it's great being australian.

|  #11 Posted on 21.2.03 0051.53 | Well it's certainly head and shoulders above Hugh Morrus's "Arrgggghhhh, I hate small people....." gimmick, so I have no problem with Nathan getting his spot and running with it for a while.
I agree that he does the "quiet pschyco" (sp?) gimmick well. Part way through his interview I started thinking about how cool him and Waylon Mercy would be as a team.
