- That way it's easier to explain what Australians are like ..... I just say "you know Steve Irwin" - "well we are NOTHING like him" - Mik
- Personally, I put Slim in the same category as Banjo Patterson & Henry Lawson, except he told his bush stories through music. - OzConnor
- Maybe then the north americans won't think of only one of 2 people when they hear the accent... You know who I'm talking about and both their names start with Crocodile! - Rene'
- Ray Martin's hair hasn't moved since I left 5 years ago. - OzConnor
- I AM SO JEALOUS THAT YOU MET STEVE!!!!!!!!! You have to go back to Australia Zoo and tell him Gaynor says I LOVE YOU!!! - Gaynor
- I watched Dame Edna embarrassing Nicole last night too.....I loved it.....it was a 1st for my american hubby....the expression on his face was priceless, he kept asking me "that's really a guy huh?"...lol. What a talent we have in Barry Humphries. - Kym in Utah
- But I DO remember Ding Dong, she mustbe 100 by now, as must Ernie Sigley!! Are they on life-support ? - Jenny
- Steve is as mad as a snake but I kinda like the guy..of course I have enough sense to know that he isnt the "poster child" for Australia.. .no more than Paul Hogan could be..maybe he doesnt portray the Australia that "YOU" know..but I would venture to say that any exposure that he generates here in America doesnt do Australia any harm.. - Wolf
- As far as Steve Irwin is concerned I tend to think he is a bit of a "nutter" but good luck to him. I think the criticism he cops is a bit of the good old Aussie "tall poppy" syndrome myself. - Julie-Anne
- I think Russell is beginning to believe his own publicity and thinks he's way more important than he really is.... - Jenny
