Default Earth Quake Hit Broadmeadows

A major hurricane (Hurricane Shazza) triggered an earthquake measuring 5.8 on the Richter scale hit Broadmeadows in the early hours of Friday. Victims were seen wandering around aimlessly, muttering "Faaackinell". The hurricane decimated hundreds of properties in the area causing approximately $30.00 worth of damage.



Several priceless collections of mementos from the Looting of the local Blockbuster Riots were damaged beyond repair. Three areas of historic burnt out cars were disturbed. Cracks in previously broken windows & plaster were definitely enlarged. Many locals were woken well before their centrelink cheques arrived.



The Broadmeadows Leader reported that hundreds of residents were wandering the streets dazed confused and bewildered and were still trying to come to terms with the fact that something interesting had happened in Broadmeadows. One resident - Tracy Sharon Smith, a 15-year-old mother of 7 said "It was such a shock, my little Chardonnay-Mercedes came running into my bedroom crying. My youngest two, Kevin and Jason slept through it all."



Apparently looting, muggings gang war and car crime were unaffected and carried on as normal. The Australian Red Cross has so far managed to ship 4,000 crates of Bacardi-Breezers to the area to help the stricken locals. Rescue workers are still searching through the rubble and have found large quantities of personal belongings, including Health Care Cards, jewellery from Kmart, and Bone China from Big W.



HOW CAN YOU HELP?
This appeal is to raise money for food and clothing parcels for those unfortunate enough to be caught up in this disaster. Clothing is most sought after - items most needed include: Brand name baseball caps {NY], tracksuits [Adidas], singlets (blue & white) white sport socks, & Reebok boots Any other items usually sold in Priceline or The Reject Shop. Food parcels may be harder to come by, but are needed all the same.



Required foodstuffs urgently needed include: Microwave meals, Baked beans, Ice cream, Chips, Fizzy drinks. McDonalds vouchers. Donations $15.00 will be taken to buy a packet of Winny blue 25s and a lighter to calm the nerves of those affected.



**Breaking news**
Broadmeadows Uniting Church has cancelled their local "Nativity Display" due to their inability to find three wise men or a virgin.
