User Comment: G'Day!
I think I am the only Australian here at SC for the moment so I hope none of you judge my country on what I say here!
I live in a place close to Beaudesert which is in the Brisbane metro area, a city of about 2 million and the capital of the Australian state of Queensland.
I live on a 2 acre block with acacias, eucalyptus trees and bottle brush bushes. There are many birds that are considered exotic like cockatoos, kookaburras, parrots of all colours, as well as flying foxes that eat the mangos and eucalyptus flowers in summer.
I don't see any kangaroos here but they are hard to see at the best of times. There are a lot of green tree frogs when it rains, as well as lizards of all shapes and sizes. There are occasionally snakes in the yard, especially hanging around the chickens (chooks).
I work in advertising, and it takes me about an hour on the nearby freeway to get to work. I choose to live in the urban fringe for some peace and solitude, although everything I need is a few minutes away.
I love SC even though I sometimes use it to vent. I like discussing politics but I think I will lay off that for a bit . I can't remember when I first came across SC - I have no concept of time, but I'm glad Bill came up with it.
STUPID LIBERAL QUOTE OF THE DAY
"He's (Osama bin Laden) been out in these countries for decades, building schools, building roads, building infrastructure, building day-care facilities, building health-care facilities, and these people are extremely grateful. We haven't done that."
Patty Murray- Democratic Senator Washington [speech to a high school honors class] (Bin Laden - the ultimate Liberal)

During the Clinton Administration I had an extremely good and well paying job. I took numerous vacations and had several vacation homes. Since President Bush took office, I have watched my entire life change for the worse. I lost my job. I lost my two sons in that terrible Iraqi War. I lost my homes. I lost my health insurance. As a matter of fact I lost virtually everything and became homeless. Adding insult to injury, when the authorities found me living like an animal, instead of helping me, they arrested me. I will do anything to insure that a Democrat is back in the White House in 2008. Bush has to go.
Sincerely,
Saddam Hussein

more) more surveys by kaleb777... Recent Comments: | Jump to Survey | Huh? | | Jump to Survey | Yes. I have a female friend who believes that abortion should be on demand, no questions asked, and paid for by the state. She also believes men should have no say as to what happens to the baby they helped create.
I also have a friend who keeps spewing this socialist dogma despite owning shares in several companies that have a poor record on employee treatment. He also drives a 4X4 yet keeps tryingt to convince me of how global warming is the greatest threat to the planet EVER.
Gee, who would have thought socialists are also hypocrites. | | Jump to Survey | It's been more than 2 years! I'm not sure I need to come back - I notice that Frostband is still here. That person really gets my blood boiling. |
