The fire is roaring and not a carb in sight. Got enough chicken on there to
eat cold chicken and baked beans all week (oh, ok... some carbs there,
still..)
If you're comin you better hurry.

Jeez..... I just walked down the street with my laptop. Getting a good
signal about 4 houses each way. Think I'll ask the neighbors if they want to
share... I could get rid of my phone and just use my cell and have the
neighbors pay he internet...haha. (a seventy dollar a month saving total)

And no one thought you were odd??  My cordless phone boasts that it can pick
up the signal from my home phone up to 100 metres away so I took it to a
neighbours house while visiting. Went to use the phone after a while and no
signal!!! I was so unhappy about that I went home and binged on Vegemite!

I know you wanted to punish yourself for trusting the phone, but isn't
Vegemite a little extreme?

I had a chance to try vegemite at the Hotel Rex in Canberra, NSW but
couldn't bring myself to try it.

It would definitely cause a bad gout attack.

I'll just have some chicken, please.

No the're not!  They are oval fruit with fuzzy brown skins, a green inside
and lots of teeny tiny seeds.  Look like a miniature cross between a
football and a watermelon:-)

I dunno, Wendy. To me, Kiwis look just like Aussies. Well, Some of
them have brown, fuzzy skins, and are somewhat oval, but not most of
them.

Wendy,

I know! I was kidding. I'm SO waiting for the gold kiwis to miraculously
arrive here in SE Pennsylvania someday soon! BG be damned!

I love the Kiwis but while we were in Oz I had to root for the Aussies
during the cricket challenges of 2001, my boss was born/raised in Adelaide.
"f.ck the Kiwis, Go Australia!" was his motto. I was forced to chant with
him! You don't want to be in the out-outback with a boss with a gun in his
hand!!!

Best,

Andy
P.S. Ask me about the Melbourne Cup!

Well, first of all, the world comes to a halt!!! Next of all, everyone on
the continent has to make a bet! Any bet! And after all, the entire
continent must stop everything during the race! No matter where you are!

The world down under literally stops rotating.

From Iron Knob, we drew papers from a hat to enter a pool for the race.
Then we dropped everything and walked into the gas station that had a TV
and watched it.

I didn't win but a few of the team did. Just amazing how much money changed
hands that day!

A fine event, outback!!!

Best,

Andy

Publicized as "The race that stops a Nation" most of the hotels have
special Melbourne Cup functions Dick Francis wrote a great book with a
robbery committed during the race,"In The Frame" IIRC, great book. I
can't remember did we let the Kiwis win any that year:-)

Rod,

So it wasn't a fluke? <G>

I also recall the prime minister's declared election! What a sneaky way to
get an extended term! It was just months after 9/11 here in America and his
strategy of "fear of change" (in my perception) worked like a charm. I
recall some of the local teammates weren't on his side but some of the
opposition wasn't greatness either. A rule we should adopt up here is the
"no campaigning the day prior to elections." Take a day and think it over.
Great!

I came home missing Australia AND the floaters!

Too civilized.

Best,

Andy

Here in America, macadamias are the premium priced nut compared to the rest.

Hawaii, the biggest grower sells the majority of it's crop to the Mrs. Fields
cookie company. :(

Bitch! ;)
