The Australian Mind

The Australian mind is different It's filled will happiness and joy I'm sure there are exceptions It must be the wide open spaces The freedom the koala bears (that smell really bad BTW) Kangaroos carrying their wee ones In a pouch unique to the animal kingdom The wide open spaces The north is warmer than the south Last but not least they talk funny

That "Canuck" designation is charming... it's what I call myself!!! We are not North American, we are Canucks or Canadians! YUP!

I love to hear the Aussie's talk, Jack. There's is something especially romantic in that accent.
