Something like that..

The South Africans had a sense of humor.. the Americans would just look at us funny.

Aren't Texans the ones with those silly hats??

Completely opposite of the Latvians.
I get it now Smack. You only met Australian women. They are like that. The men are sociable, intelligent, urbane and in general handsome.

Heh-heh. I'll give you sociable.

As for the ladies, all one can say is nicely done. Now have you seen Texan chicks?

Texan women- big hair and big maintenance.


I await BentSailor's entrance with an earnest defense of all things Oz, and a shot at Texan conservatism.

Your 1/2 right - check downtown Toronto on a Friday or Saturday night.

Vancouver's girls used to be incredible - better than anywhere I've ever been. We'd spend our lunch hours just sitting downtown watching them walk by but something happened over the last 20 years, other than me getting older and it's just not the same now.

Bent, Hartley and TDW are sailing right now in the Heaven Can Wait race, I think. Somewhat unusual behaviour.
