Hey Smeg, do those damn introduced camels adversely affect the Roos? Also, since we're talking about Australia a couple more questions ... how far is the ski resort from Adelaide? Will you put me and the mrs. up if we come to Australia to check it out this summer/winter? ------------------ (===)
No camels don't effect Roos, not sure exactly but there would 100,00s more roos than camels. There are several ski fields in australia, mostly in Victoria and South of Sydney, the ones in Victoria are probably 4-5hrs from Adelaide. Sure i could put you up. Stupid question, why would you come to australia for skiing, why not visit the Great Barrier Reef and head to Kakadu National Park, or Uluru (Ayres Rock) Smeg ------------------ "Repression never did me any harm (I finally ceased to include "stop masturbating" as one of my guilt ridden New Year's resolutions, but that's a different topic)."

I'm not coming to ski... my Mrs. just took the GRE and she's trying to find a school to go to in a town that I would actually live in. If the ski resorts are that far away, I'll tell her to check into Sydney's Anthro/Bio programs though (I'm also pushing Boulder and Calgary, she's pushing city != SLC for some reason). I wondered about the skiing, b/c I know a sponsored snowboarder that spent a few summers ago in Australia chasing the snow. I'm also seriously interested in paleoclimatology, and the fjords close by in New Zealand and some of the shoreline stuff in New Guinea would be awesome (I don't want to get killed in New Guinea though ). Sorwy for wuining your Black Pantharrr Pawty Smeggg-gggay. I did nawt wont two wuin yowr poast. ------------------ (===)
Hey Achebe (I know this is off topic, so sorry!) Are you an anthropologist or archaeologist? I'm taking a paleoclimatology class right now (paleoclimate and human response). It is pretty cool. My profs wrote one of our books- thought you might be interested. The Way the Wind Blows by Roderick McIntosh, Joseph A. Tainter and Susan Keech McIntosh. I love my anthropology major and I'm actually kinda sad to be graduating because it means no more classes. Oh well, I guess there is always grad school. ------------------ Poopy!
Ali (Smeg's going to kill us for this derail, LOL), I actually graduated w/ a geology and philosophy degree. It was in classes like Paleobiology, Process Geomorph and Marine geology though that I fell in love w/ glaciers and paleo studies. Just to get further off of topic ( ), I'm planning on taking a paleoanthropology class this summer (as well as perhaps Stable Isotope Ecology) just to kill some time and see if I could seriously go back to school. Software development is fun, but after a few years of the real world, a safe haven in school sounds more appealing. I don't want to be a 40 year old bald programmer. I'd much rather be a 40 year old bald professor w/ a cv 20 pages long. ------------------ (===)
If ali and HEB are pissing all over Smegs Foster thread, i might as well too. party in Smegs thread!! woo woo ------------------ snap crackle pop

Ironic isn't it considering what Fosters Tastes like and the only people stupid enough top drink it are foreigners.

"inner circle".......so that's what their called eh........my cowhead's iz gonna hafta start ourselves up a name too now in the near future soon yea........ ------------------ Note: It was my cowhead. I started the cowhead craze, and my cowhead inspired Mooch to step up and bring us a victory. Thank you for your time.
Oh yeah, your headband is totally off. Show's that your not "in" the "inner circle". It's (===) just three ='s not 4. ------------------ Note: It was my cowhead. I started the cowhead craze, and my cowhead inspired Mooch to step up and bring us a victory. Thank you for your time.
HEB, Inner Circle?! You can't possibly be in the inner circle because you use it at all the wrong freakin' times!!!! *sigh* ------------------ "It doesn't matter. If it's the Lakers or the Spurs, I'm going to kill them." -- Cuttino "Jack" Mobley on possible playoff opponents.
Hey smeg...your Fosters has had somewhat of a profound affect here in the states. We have what you call a "40oz". Imagine that! ------------------ Whatever you want to do, you have to do something else first.
