Australia is chockablock full 'o [the gayness](http://www.news.com.au/common/story_page/0,4057,7351084%255E1702,00.html), which doesn’t quite jibe with the croc-wrestling image of days gone by. **Thaidog** just needed to keep up with the times. ---

I find [his website](http://www.tyler.mcadams.com/) quite instructional; he did look a bit like Keanu Reeves before the head-shaving (presumably this was performed for the lobotomy). ---

That’d make more sense if it said “but he did not shoot the deputy…” coz: a) it’d match the lyrics better, and b) **Milum** ’s still here. 😉 ---

Well, ok. I mean, I’m as open-minded as the next fellow. I buy my socks by the bag ($4.99, K-Mart, white). My notion of interior design is the optimum placement of TV, chairs, and refrigerator. So the idea of a gay Aussie is no more unsettling than the idea of a sober Aussie. So I’m cool with this, just so long as it is constrained to merely _wrestling_ the crocodiles, or if the crocodiles are afforded the standard “dinner and a show”, and some reliable measure of informed consent can be proven. But if the legendary Aussie instinct towards Perv gets out of hand, I feel we would have no choice but to round up our entire PETA population and export them _en masse_ to the Texas of the Pacific. You have been warned. Tremble, and obey. ---

No, no, **HB** , that’s not the way of it. Stay at home, and do what you can for the national average. You gonna let the States be beat by a bunk of Hungarians? ---
