    I'm celebrating today by watching the The Tour Down Under with a beer, it is televised live , by any chance do you have the pleasure of seeing it, there are fantastic shots of my home city of Adelaide, South Australia, beautiful day of 32c (89.6 F). :) - The 4th of July is celebrated here as there are a large number of Americans living here in OZ. - firewoks and all.:)

    Terry, i do agree with you with the govt. letting in certain refugees who will never simulate into society, as far as the aboriginies go i think the hatred has lessen with their idea of Invasion Day.

    Happy Australia Day to our friends down under, you guys do not drink that Foster's crap do you? My relatives there tell me that it is for export to the US!

    bulletman

    Busti, it is crap that,s why we export it the US of A., only joking, i quite got the taste of Bud while i was there.
    bustieone

    That's funny, I think of Bud as crap, Bud Lite once in a while, but I do not drink Bud, even though my late father in law was a driver for them.
    bulletman

    What beer do you suggest, Bustie. , do not say Coors as i found it lame.
    jhharlan

    Uh, we like Bud Ice here in my home, it’s really good beer and cheap…..
    bustieone

    Bullet, Sam Adams is a good beer. I do not know if they export. We have many microbrewed beers here, I bet you do too. I remember going to the Castleman brewery in Brisbane and having their XXXX, it was great.

    fosters is crap,when i did drink,,xxxx was the one to have in sunny Queensland
    bulletman

    Bustie, I'm afraid i hav'nt the taste for xxxx, but i have seen Samual Adams in the bottle shops, we have a shop here called Dan Murphies, they stock almost all beers from overseas, next time i visit i will try Sam Adams, if you can, try Coopers Pale Ale, its the only Aussie beer that ferments in the bottle, the longer you keep it the better it gets, there is no shelf life for this beer.
    bustieone

    Bullet, thanks for that tip, my son, son-in-law, and I will try. We normally homebrew a great Amber Ale, but have not in too long. We will get on the stick soon!

    Have fun celebrating!

    Happy Australia Day, to all you Aussies.

    bulletman

    On behalf of all Aussies i thank you.:)

    ""   Happy day to all our Aussie friends!  (Convicts?  Like our politicians in the US should be?)

    bulletman

    MsBob, i forgot Americans do not do history other than your own country, original Aussie were all convicts to start with, Mother England figured it would be hard to escape back to England, as usual the Poms had their heads up their Backsides, they were wrong of course.
    Bob/PKB

    Well, I don't care what the aka aussies roots are, you guys rock!
    bustieone

    We used to tease my late mother-in-law about being a convict, she was a cracker!

    Happy Aussie day good on ya mate !,, xxxx
