We had a member here Liz something remember?  I believe she was from Australia. I remember talking to her in the chatroom. At that time, she was the only one I knew of from Down Under. That was Liz_85. *Injectilo was from Australia too I believe. Yes, he was. Good memory. Do you remember Nick from Down Under? He used to post on the old (black) boards. We've had a few other members from Australia, too.

"Fosters" is NOT Australian for beer ( Actually it's our biggest Import, But no one drinks it here..seriously).  No one drinks it here either. I've never seen anyone drink one, I've never drank one, I've never seen a case of it in the store, I've never seen a can of it in person, and I haven't seen a commercial for it since, like, 2005-ish, and that's an estimate coming from a guy who is horrible at making up time-lines and has a useless memory. I actually forgot all about Fosters until I read your post.

That's because the Australian's are all a pack of depraved alcoholics who literally urinate alcohol. That entire ad-campaign was a typo. It was supposed to read "Fosters is Australian's beer.

Okay, I have a question. Whenever I see Australia depicted on television, everyone is very "outdoorsy," which I love. It seems that the beach is a very big deal in the coastal sections, as well. Everyone has nice tans, etc . . . So why is Nicole Kidman so cadaverously freaking pale? She makes the Pillsbury Dough Boy look like he just got back from a tropical vacation. And does anyone in Australia actually find her attractive? I mean, besides her husband who needs her money for 12 month a year rehab  . Because to me, she looks like one of the needy, flat-chested children in the "Save the Children" infomercials.

*Injectilo was from Australia too I believe. damn straight!  i like australia. i think we are 'the lucky country' as is so often heard around these parts. we have great weather, great countryside, great people. we have all extremes, desert, rain forest, snow capped mountains and sandy beaches. we have densely populated cities and sparsely populated countryside. you have choices in australia. however, there are things i don't like. in particular, a government which is attempting to censor it's people, in particular our access to the internet. all of this is under the guise of 'but won't somebody think of the children!'. it has gotten bad lately, with the south australian government banning (and then due to pressure rescinding) a policy banning people from making political comments on the internet unless their name and post code was listed. wtf? oh, and there is a movement to ban pornography with flat chested women because they could look underage. this is not a joke, they are trying to pass this as legislation. i'm not normally one to talk politics, but the nanny state mentality in australia at the moment is seriously worrying.  but all in all, i wouldn't live anywhere else.

Is it really true that your Prime Minister (don't remember what year) disappeared in the surf?? According to the book, he hopped in for a swim and was never seen again.
Yeah, that is true. Harold Holt I think his name was. As a kid, I spent 3 years living in Exmouth on the Harold E. Holt Naval Base. It's on the Northwest Cape about 800 miles NW of Perth. Traveled all around the country - to Perth, Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, GB Reef..... wonderful scenery. I hope to be able to go back and visit as a grown up!
I have a tendency to wear my heart on my sleeve - I have a history of taking off my shirt.....
