The Aussies Getting Too Much Sun??

We live in the US and have visited various parts of Canada, both warm and cold weather. No "terrorism, heavy snow, ice and forest fires" that we could see. Somebody with no sense of humor would say that. Nex I agree. Except this has put out as gospel. In fact the other day the Australian ambassador defended it saying that 2 Australians had died in an avalanche. The fact they were out of bounds apparently didn't matter. What I found particularly amusing was comments on the forest fires in British Columbia. I wonder how the dimwits who put this out are going to survive their forest fires. I saw lots of evidence fire damage to forests when I was there in November. I guess I shouldn't have gone. -- Martha Canada Martha Just read in my earlier post in this thread what Canada says about Australia :-) Gerrit I missed it. But I can imagine. I sometimes wonder what some people use for brains. I don't know what we said about Oz, but I'm sure it was as stupid as the one about us. I read somewhere that I shouldn't go to Queensland because they get monsoons sometimes. I think they also mentioned fires. If we believed half of what they warn us about, we wouldn't go anywhere. I'm hoping to come back and see some more and meet some more wonderful people when I can save a few pennies. Yes we still use pennies. And I'll look out for crocodiles and snakes. -- Martha Canada |

Personally, I wouldn't go near earth considering the global warming uh threat. But simply put, life bites. Even more simply: so what? It's all a matter of degree. Tell an alcoholic to avoid Saudi Arabia, fine. Tell someone to avoid BC for the fires: get stuffed and end of story. Nex (Unless there's an ulterior motive, and then it's get stuffed twice) |
