an ongoing serial by William and Elisha Thorpopoulis
The most anyone had gained from her arrival was a headache. Not to say that she wasn’t welcome, nor her baggage, but the other residence where always sceptical of new folk, especially pregnant thirteen year olds.
She stumbled into town, ragged, filthy, other villages might have discarded her as nothing more than trash, but not widow Watring who untangled herself from her knitting as she scurried out into the snow to help the young girl.
The bruised face of the fragile blonde looked sullen, death warmed up-going cold, Watring threw her own dressing gown over the child, forced her arms under the girls and with a surge of strength- and tenacity, lifted the girl and rushed her inside.
It wasn’t until the young teenager was safe on the couch near the fire place that Watring collapsed into her own recliner.

Happily We Partily On...
Twas our birthday recently, we aint big on the whole age thing, a quarter of a century is disgusting and we aint happy JAN!
But on we shall party, tonight, with a couple of our dearest friends, Sascha, Louise, Anne and the Angulo brothers.
We have never had reason to speak about the Angulo brothers before now so heres abit of an introduction to them.... They are Spanish and only moved to Woppallong in the past year. They work with us down the farm. They are not twins like us (which is good, we want to the be the only twins round here), Ernesto is the youngest of the two at 23 and Carlos is 27. There parents died in Spain in a water skiing accident, thats what triggered them into moving all the way over here. Carlos left behind the love of his life in doing so, His still trying to get her to come over here because he just can't get over her. They came here to be with there sister Pillar, She's been here as long as we can remember.. Shes a real darl. We had seen the boys a few times throughout our lifetime when they'd come here to visit but still don't really know them well enough and fear saying the wrong thing to them. They are nices lads though, Elisha kind of has a crush on one of them but no one but her knows which one. William thinks that it is Carlos and is more than sure that he is right Elisha just want admitt it, She's probably scared and embarrassed of what people would think seeing as she only just got out of her relationship with HIM (grrr, the cunty) and Carlos loves another woman. I guess the whole twin intuition thing makes it hard to keep secretsfrom each other .
We we shall go and start partying it up, we still have to prepare and cook the food for the party. It shall be a blast, dancing around the kitchen.

David Vs David
We guess we all saw this coming, but could only hope that Syesha would get voted into the top 2 along with KC/DC leaving Arcuhleta out in the cold to endure the wrath of daddy dearest.
But oh well.
We've loved every minute of this season of Idol and cant fucken wait for our own aussie idol to come on!Michael Johns from the moment he stepped out till when he bowed out astounded us and made it worth the while, his talent, voice, charisma and looks are hot to trot so really hope he walks away the biggest star in the end. Public exposure is one thing, having the talent to back it up and deserve it is another!
Make sure you check out our Polls and perhaps even have a laugh at our limericks!
http://twinsofbelleville.blogspot.com/2008/05/limericking-top-12.html
The second of our Davids is "A.",
Who seemed so incredibly gay,
but hid from his dad,
who would get mad,
"You are not! Now get in your cage!"
In walked a girl called Mercado,
Who's talent is lacking Vibrato,
Tho she has stuck,
Has not gave a fuck,
So is stepping it up to go hard-o.
And the winner it should be the word nerd,
who hasn't slipped up, he's been heard,
his forehead is big,
we'd go to his gig,
OH PLEASE OH PLEASE let him come first.
we will post a list of ultimate song choices, tho as typical with idol they'll probably have to sing "thier favourite song... from the competition"
repition, BAH!

Limericking the Top 12!
There lived a gay stripper camed David,
When a man walked in, he gave it,
a rub and pull,
a buck or two,
he'd get a hundred if he saved it!
Eleventh in place was Amanda,
She screamed and wailed like a panda,
this chicky rocked,
before she was socked,
then onto the net where we slandered.
Onto the stage came Chiezie,
who's balladry was awful and Cheesy,
a cutie he was,
pity he lost,
our country bumpkin Chikieze Eze.
The littlest one was Ramiele,
Who's 'everything' sent us to hell,
We liked her at first,
But then she dispersed,
Because of not much there to sell.
The one who was robbed was Michael,
Who was tossed outside to recycle,
he was Australian,
we thought he was sailin',
He woulda been Cooks best rival!
Next off the mark was Kristy Lee,
Who's exit was nessessary,
she gave up her horse,
so now she whores,
herself so disgustingly.
There even was an irish girl, Carly,
who looked like she rode on a harley,
but Overmeyer did,
and her album was shit,
But at least her tattoos are gnarly!
And where do we begin with Brooke?
The subtle, accoustic, big sook.
we liked her bag,
she wasn't a hag,
that title goes to Kristy Lee Cook.
Our resident stoner was Jason,
Who looks like he's always chasin',
but at least he's cool,
different for Idol,
And never puked in the basin!
The second of our Davids is "A.",
Who seemed so incredibly gay,
but hid from his dad,
who would get mad,
"You are not! Now get in your cage!"
In walked a girl called Mercado,

leave your own limericks to share with everyone!!!
from our imdb post!
The once was a kid named Archuleta, Who's goal in life was to do better, than his father would yell, putting him through hell, That's why we compare him to Fetta.
There lived a smart man named David, who liked to sit out on the pavement, doing his words, crossing the verbs, If you like this rhyme you can save it!
There was once a chicky called Syesha, who wasn't anything like Moesha, she went on 'The One', that show was dumb, Oh why can't they bring back Lakisha?

Footy Tippies!
It really sucks cause we've accidently lost the envelope we wrote last rounds tips on, pain in the arse since (by fluke) William tipped Melbourne Demons who went on to win. Don' know why he did, but he got the point (that bastard) so here's this weeks!!!! We're gunna search our titties off for last rounds!

Song Choices a la Top 3
Idol on tomorrow, top 3, woowoo, so let's look at the competition.... and results may surprise...
DAVID COOK: ...Consistant...Original....Refreshing, this guy has taken everything from Mariah the Pariah thru to Lionel Richie to The Beatles and given them the best improvements, making even critics of Idol take note.
Why should he win? Simply, he's the best of the contestants left, has been since Michael left, his unique take on popular songs leaves the imagination open for what else he's going to pull out of his sleeve, then to come out and sing Music On The Night straight whilst his "arch" enemy David A ruined another Phantom classic.
I'm a HUGE fan of Phantom and was sooo dissappointed by Fartchuleta's 'Think Of Me' abomination.
Why shouldn't he win? Exactly, why shouldn't he win?
Song Choices? Blondie's Rip Her To Shreds. Placebo's cover of Running Up That Hill, or even The Kids Aren't Alright by The Offspring.
SYESHA MERCADO: ....Generic....Hit and Miss....Jazz Cat over Ballad Rat, Syesha has surprised us all and beaten the odds to gain a spot in the Top 3, only time will tell is this was a worthy decision.
Why should she win? Well, she's been somewhat hit, somewhat miss, the occasional jazz number however isn't enough to overshadow the boring generic song chocies, been there done that. Jazzy she can be cool though.
Why shouldn't she win? Do we need to repeat ourselves? The thing about Syesha is that even when she falls she rises, it's up and down, but she's gotten this far which is a true testament to her tenacity and her fan base support. A spot next to Cook at the finale would be better deserved than other certain contestants.
Song Choices? Sober by Kelly Clarkson, Too Hard Too Handle by whoever originated it, or perhaps even Here's Where I Stand from Camp.
DAVID ARCHULETA: .....popular....young....questionable... Daddys favourite son is doing him prouder than your average.
Why should he win? He has the young teen vote, but as we know with these shows, the parents pay the phone bill, the adults get to vote.
Why shouldn't he win? He shouldn't. He doesn't deserve it, his father has been milking his son for all his worth, show after show after show, trying to become famous, and America is just giving the cunt of a man (the dad) what he wants. Stage parents don't deserve to have successful kids.
Song choices? Walk The Dinosaur, hehehe the Tin Lids did this years ago. Actually, whatever he sings will sound like the week before it, so who cares really?
DAVID COOK TO WIN, WOOWOO!
