[hometext] => a celebration and explanation...
[bodytext] => G'day, I'm Australian and we are known, from time to time - to be incomprehensible, because we talk with a nasal whine - we call that Aussie Strine as in howthebloodyhellareya? or, haveagoodweekend; we drop consonants and mangle vowels in the messages we send we're a mass of contradictions LOUD, and sometimes shy; call short people Stretch, and rainy days are 'not too dry' we can be very friendly, convention's not out style but when refugees land on our shores we run a bloody mile! still, we'll shout you a beer and call you queer, but only if you're a mate and when you need someone to watch your back... - better go, it's gett'n late! AUSTRALIA!
