Hot.

Let me tell you something about Australia you probably already knew. It's hot. It's hot as fucking shit. Now it's normally just plain unbearable, but that's okay because we have the beach, garden hoses and air conditioning. Summer can be great. But when you have to move furniture or shovel sand in the 42 C heat, you start getting a little pissed. Luckily though, for those who need to do manual labor in heat similar to the surface temperature of the sun, we have beer, which is both refreshing, and alcoholic.

It was Australia day two days ago, and this is my little tribute. I think we sweat the little things too much over here and forget how well off we really are. Sure I missed the train to the city to watch the skyworks for the day. and sure it was 40 C and raining, but we forget what it really means to be Australian. No seriously, we forget. Ask anyone and no one has a clue.

ah well, never mind about all that. Happy Australia day.
