Not very Australian is it?
What were you expecting? Gum trees and kookaburras? Sheesh... Someone needs to shoot Paul Hogan for his false advertising...!
Where are the kangaroos?? Hiding in the dark?

Nah, they were wiped out by a road train on their way to Iggy's yard.

I'd be real happy if I never see another bloody roo ever again...
I take the country back roads to work everyday.
I'm forever keeping an eye out for the bastard! I swear they do it on purpose!
They're nature's marsupial terrorists!

I hadn't any experience with cattle as a kid. When I was in the Navy, some of my buddies and I went to a remote site to hike the mountains. One guy grew up around cattle, and warned me that the cows wandering around would amble right in front of me when I approached (as a herd instinct). Sure enough, when I got close, the damned pot roast shambled right in front of the car. Do 'roos have a herd instinct, or are they like squirrels and rabbits, that wait until you are so close that you can't dodge 'em before they enter the roadway, to their certain demise?

They do live in small herds ...But there's an unwritten law amongst kangaroos.
If you want to cross the road, you're on your own sucker!

One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery each day."

Yeah, I went to my city's big one last night. It was quite impressive. There was also an afterparty where little kids got photos with their favorites. I snapped a photo of that night's Clara, but failed to save it.
