Urgent -- emergency!!

I have just been informed that there a critical Marmite shortage in New Zealand!!!

Our Allies in New Zealand are being forced into rationing of this vital resource.

I have heard rumors that the US Air Force MACS Command will be air lifting emergency supplies from California later today.

If you can spare any extra supplies of your Marmite provisions, please contact the US Dept. of Emergency Relief Services ASAP.

Not funny you guys. Not funny. What's going to happen to us. Sure there are islands sinking in the Pacific, but I say get used to it. But no Marmite - arrrrrgh.

How could you tell? Any sentient being that eats the stuff dies a 'orrible death within 70 or 80 years.

Matt, on Keeping up with the Joneses, the brother of Christine was ecstatic to be given mudcrabs by his wife. He said they are the best food on earth. Better than Morton Bay Bugs? What are mudcrabs?

Mudcrabs are a large-ish crab from the tropical area's of Australia.
They are an absolute delight when cooked properly. I couldn't compare them to bugs they are different.
