Happy Birthday Tom or "Alms for the Cros"

Happy Birthday, our Austalian Friend!
For those who might have forgotten, it is probably Tom's Birthday right now, seeing as how them Australiers got their days all confused. So apparently, Crizelby decided he'd celebrate Aussie-style: Shrimp on the Barbie, surrounded by dingoes and Kangeroos, with a feast of Outback Vegemite. Spraying stenciled graphitti on the building housing the coffeeshop that refused to make his Soy Late- with Milk. Crizleby loves his milk. MMMMMNNNMMM.

So, the Proposal:
Because, I highly doubt anyone thought to mail anything to the South Pacific for our man in Melbourne (*myself included), and we know how T-man loves his kooky gifts, here is my suggestion:
In honour of a gentleman who contributes so much (and so often) to the Huddle, everyone here is asked (dis)respectfully to submit, to the Huddle, any thing which you think our man of peculiar and refined tastes might enjoy.
"What?" you say. Perhaps it's a video of some unusual Australian ritual, an mp3 he can hum along the garden path of Fitzroy, or a text reference to Patrick White, the beleagured Australian author he enjoys so much. Perhaps it's a little Po-em or painting, a picture, or a picture of an obscure painting. Or maybe you've got some inside information on Michael Mann, or the latest update in Grand Theft Autodom. I mean, it doesn't really matter- the more obscure the better. That's how he likes it. Right Crizzzls?

So, Friends, that is my proposal. Present your offering by Midnight June 10, NL time (that's only fair), be it in comment, or Post form. If this works, Janesey's is right around the bend. Good Luck! We await everyone's "Alms for the Cros."

There once was a man named Crisbee,
Who loved to play the frisbee.
He moved to the South,
Still flapping his mouth,
And now wants to become an Aussie.

:p That's all I've got. Happy Birthday, Thomas! :D
