Death,

Taxes, and ...

"The Chaser" is going to try something on during APEC.

I don't know what was funnier. Bin Laden emerging from the 'Canadian' motorcade, or the stern reactions of the security head honchos after the event. Surely they should have known.

And it's not as if the Chaser boys didn't go out of their way to leave some hints for the security enforcers ...

IF ONLY the police had stopped to read the fine print on the "APEC 2007 Official Vehicle" sticker.

"This vehicle belongs to a member of The Chaser's War on Everything.

"This dude likes trees and poetry and certain types of carnivorous plants excite him."

To his credit, and he doesn't get much at the "Pigs," only Dolly Downer saw the incident as it was intended.

The Minister for Foreign Affairs, Alexander Downer, appeared amused. "Whatever you think of the humour of The Chaser … they were clearly not going to harm anybody in a physical way," he said. "They presumably were, as is the nature of their show, aiming to humiliate a lot of well-known people."

Expect to see the Chaser team get a nasty slap on the wrist when they front court in October.
