Ah, therein lies the difference between us all. I'm absolutely certain that some
left-footed lesbian surf board rider would possibly recollect the why's and
how's..

Equally so, some young fellow is now down at the beach using an Australian Flag
purely as a warmth object.

Herein lay our cultural differences.

My grand-kids sometime in coming months, will tell me the meaning of Budgewoi
[again], the lesbian surf board riders will joke with me something fierce and
I'll try as hard as possible to find an Australian flag which isn't on a public
building.

I expect most of this will go over people's heads. Why Aussies *are* different...
