> First to recite his poem was the university graduate.

> Slowly across the desert sand,
> Trekked a lonely caravan
> Men on camels two by two
> Destination - Timbuktu.

> The crowd went crazy! No way could the old aboriginal top that, they

> The old aboriginal calmly made his way to the microphone and recited;
>
> Me and Tim a huntin' went
> Met three whores in a pop up tent
> They were three, and we was two
> So I bucked one, and timbuktu.

> The aboriginal won.
