Micks? Ouch! So Politically Incorrenct! Seriously with our stringent
harassment policies some wowser (see below) might report you and then a
major inquiry probably lasting several weeks would kick into action.

I must think of some way to get you going.

I was talking to an Aussie mate of mine at work and he said Aussies are
always calling each other whingers. He also said that a killjoy is
called a "wowser". I'm not sure if I've got the spelling right.

Maybe I should read Bill Bryson's recent book on Australia. It might
give me some ammuntion. :-)
