New Jersey Girl in an Australian World
I saw this picture somewhere ages ago but it didn’t have a link attached to it or any website credited to it. I kept meaning to do a search for it but I always forgot to do it. I was cleaning out my desktop and came across it and did a search. I couldn’t find […]
I love Dick!
Crude but funny Aussie commercial, being proud to be Australian. VIDEO: Dick Smith’s Australia Day ad too rude for TV
I have a confession
Remember my rant about cheese? Well since then I have gotten used to “Australian” cheese. I’ve been known to snack on some of the cheeses available to me here. I’m not a big cheese eater anymore like I used to be, neither is LJ but we have gotten better. Unfortunately CJ doesn’t like cheese at […]
