having the ability to post a picture certainly deserves a 5 star rating in my books

i agree, plus thats me in the suit, thats deserves 5 stars...

 

[Laura M]

That's not really you in the suit because you stole it from someone's blog

Don't worry though, I was lying too, about the 5 star rating that is

If Paul saw this...........

 

[FlyYourKite]

Those are some interesting pictures.

The first pic is inaccurate. We have very few of those USA type cactiiii here. Our trees do not produce boughs that wide. And kangaroos are quite trim looking and bounce a lot further with each bounce.

 

[Mullen4Prez]

One of them got in a fight with Paul. The bastard!!!!

 

[beli]

lol. Theyll fight anyone. What was your mate doing? Trying to take a pic without paying the roos sitting fee?

i love it when that happens

We have very few of those USA type cactiiii here.

those are called saguaros (pronounced sa-wah-ros). we have lots of them here in the southwest. i love them. they fascinate me. they're ninety percent water and have strong wooden ribs inside. that's what holds them up. the tallest one ever was recorded at fifty nine feet. i was just reading yesterday that they make wine out of the fruit that saguaros produce once a year. i'm going to search online to see if i can find some.

this really is a poor excuse for a thread

but at least now there are some interesting cacti facts

He works in a wildlife park and the kangaroo scrathced his face almost took his eye out and now the poor thing has to be put down

 

[Angela Harlem]

it shouldn't be locked up in a bloody park in the first place.

 

[uwwedoogie]

^ its not being put down... is it?

 

[beli]

Which one are they putting down? Your mate or the roo?

 

[Mullen4Prez]

The poor kango of course

 

[blueeyedgirl]

That's a bloody disgrace, putting down a kanga for only kicking some fool.

you mean everyone's day-to-day life isn't like crocodile dundee? i've been lied to

Like koalas, kangaroos are not the cuddly little animals like that in Winnie the Pooh. Male kangaroos in particular can be extremely vicious. Unfortunately, kangaroos also suffer from stress myopathy (sp?) if you tried to catch them (they basically will die from stress and it is not a pleasant way to go) and move them so in reality the most humane thing is a bullet.

Yes you have. And for the record Paul Hogan has a SYDNEY accent. It sounds NOTHING like a person from the outback ie me

 

[myusernamehere]

I once ate a Kangaroo burger. At least that's what they told me it was.

 

[beli]

Quite possibly. We use kangaroos for dog food over here.

 

[beli]

Not that you were eating dog food.

That didnt come out the way I intended

 

[Tania]

Isn't Australia the only country that eats its national emblems?

 

[beli]

At least ours aren't fantasy animals

 

[Angela Harlem]

Yes you have. And for the record Paul Hogan has a SYDNEY accent. It sounds NOTHING like a person from the outback ie me

You mean like a pom?

 

[beli]

You mean like a pom?

NO ONE and I mean NO ONE has mistaken me for a Pom for at least a week.

 

[Angela Harlem]

Why? Have you lost that 'clip'?

So let me ask you Aussies...is it true you only eat "shrimp on the barbie," drink Fosters, and say "G'Day mate" at the start of every sentence?

say yes, please don't disillusion me
