By the way--when I saw the title of this thread I thought it said
"prestidigitated pap," and I was afraid we'd get into a discussion of koalas
that juggle food for their young...

Evidently if it *were* "prestidigitated pap" it would raise the level of this
thread substantially on the Australian quality scale-- and I believe
mention of koalas qualifies it for bonus points....

While it may make it Oz related, I think you'll find the usage actually will
incur penalty points, among that group at any rate.

You should have seen the uproar when Katie Couric "adopted" a baby wallaby
when she was in Oz for the Olympics... everyone thought it was sheer
pandering (not panda-ing, mind you)
