Come to Wisconsin, the cheesehead state... Oh wait, California took that away from us so now I guess we're just the beer state. If you are up for seeing a state where mass consumption of alcohol is the norm, swing on through.
I grew up near a small town in central Wisconsin of 1200 people and it had 14 bars on the "main street" in town... Now I live in Marathon county, and we have 92 bars within the (non-proper) city limits of Wausau. And they wonder why we drink so much...
P.S. The consumtion rate and bar concintration per capita appears to rise exponentialy ans you proceed north.

I turned the air conditioning on. In Toronto. Only for a few minutes, mind you, but it was exciting while it lasted.

Can you possibly imagine how sickening you statement is for anyone living in Houston, Texas, the A/C capitol of the world? Here, in the heat & humidity, A/C is required for existence. We go from A/C in the house to A/C in the car to A/C in the office to A/C at the football game. On the other hand, none of us owns a snow shovel....
Grossly unfair.

No - the point is that "air conditioning" and "Toronto" are two concepts that I, with my preconceived stereotypes about Canada, never thought I'd use in the same sentence.
It's wonderful knowing that Canada can get nice and toasty.

Noticing the bottom of your oven is dirty and attempting to give it a quick wipe clean. While the oven is on.

"Hello send code"
That was it.

On the bright side it wouldn't have taken long to download!
I'm on the committee of a car club here in Sydney, we recently received an email from a gentleman in China asking if we would like to buy 100 motorcycle engines
I figure people sometimes need to take a step back and think "what the hell am I doing??"

Some chinese guy mailed me (webmaster@company) if we'd liketo distribute something inexplicable (the images on their website looked like soap - but you'll never know...).
We're making loudspeaker measurement equipment.

At least they didn't give you a sob story about how they needed you to finish their senior project because they didn't understand it.

While riding up the elevator in my apartment I met a guy who has just moved in to an apartment on my floor. We got to talking and everything was cool until we walked past his door. We said our goodbye's and he opened his door and shouted to his flatmate: "dude - we have an Aussie on our floor".

Just bring them a peace offering of kangaroo steaks, and offer some friendly advise on menu selections for the next time they're down at the Outback Steakhouse...

Hhhhmmm... I am a South African living in Switzerland and I previously lived in Chile. It is surprising how often I get asked the equivalent of this question; "How do the aeroplanes avoid the lions on the landing strip?" God, I miss Africa....

It's normally kangaroos and man-eating wombats that we have problems with on our (dirt) airstrips.

I'm sure your ass is Aussie.
Anyway you're number 1.

It rocks, it really does feel like our natural home, something physically leaves you when you land in an overseas country.

Tell them that we use herds of Antelope to lure the lions away from the strip whenever we need to land our Junker Jus.
