Does Australia have any equivalent to Free Republic...or any space on FR? If so, I'd like to meet some Aussies here.

There are a lot of Aussies on FR. Australia is one of the most intense Internet savvy countries, but their timezone layout puts them on during what is night for most Americans.

I knew that was coming!

BTW.....Senator Bedfellow is a great FR handle.
I wish I hadn't been plastered when I first registered.

I spent several weeks in New Zealand, love the place, would be happy to move there if it weren't Klarkistan. Except for the governance it's a paradise. Some of the friendliest people I've met.

We're not too happy with Helengrad, either: she rules with the flimsiest of margins, with a Parliament finely-balanced on a razor's edge. These days, it's rather funny to watch her squirm...

We're hosting the 2011 World Cup of Rugby in New Zealand: a great time for the world to visit us. That's the focus of our Nation these days, that's what's important, and "The Sisterhood" can go fly a kite: we have our priorities right!

Cheers from DownUnder!

Gidday Aussie Dasher,

I used to work for a division of Elders IXL, back when John Elliot ran the outfit and the Liberal party from Melbourne, in the mid-80's.

Enjoying my Fosters, even as we speak!

Cheers

Gidday Diehard.

I'm in Melbourne right now. Magnificent day. Ideal for a few frothies!

Soaking up the sun in the Waitakere Ranges, myself. Jungle sounds and Glenn Miller, and a couple-three frothies are on the agenda, definitely. Hammock-time, then the barbie...

We have life pretty good here in the South Pacific, eh?

No complaints from me.

A few more South African wickets wouldn't go astray, though...

Good luck with the Cricket, Mate! Oz is a formidable team.
