While those in other parts of the world are worried about financial meltdown, war or which fool to vote for, Australians have been up in arms about just about the most important factor in life: beer.

    Beer is not healthy, Aussies should make a switch to soy milk.

      A comment such as this would incur severe punishment in Australia, such as having to spend a week in Tasmania.

        You know why the Aussies name their Beer "XXXX"









        'Cos they can't spell "SH*T" !

          Only Queenslander's drink XXXX and they call it that because they can't spell beer.

          We have different time zones in Australia because of the size of the country. Upon entering Queensland you turn your watch back to 1950.

              My excuse for Fosters? That question would get you 2 weeks in Tasmania.

              BTW, I don't drink beer. I live near quite a number of winerys and sample the odd wine or ten. In fact, it is so dry here in South Australia that drinking of water is forbidden and now wine comes out of the water tap.

              We are a very happy group of people but productivity has fallen a little but nobody notices.
