I could appreciate your visceral details having helped my father vaccinate and castrate hogs. The splatter pattern is always the same. Nice, easy shift in and out of Australian accent.

And amazing, and more importantly, well-told. I'd love to hear Ira's rationale for declining it sometime. But it’s brand-new to me! And amazing, and more importantly, well-told.

Not everyone in Adelaide is a hick. A million plus people make this a pretty bloody big country town! But your inference is correct - Melbourne is full of soft city types. Piss off Paul.

Adelaide is a big ol country town, and almost everyone has an uncle or a cousin on a farm and has been spotlighting for roos at some point whilst visiting the farm for school holidays... Melbourne on the other hand pitches itself as "the most livable city in the world" and is full of multi cultural cityites who would get a kick out of your yarn. Oh - and in Australia, that is what it is best refered to as - a yarn. Describing is as a story is a subtly different meaning. Cheers.
