26 of Jan is Australia Day. I'm a patriot so I have to blog about this :)

Unlike the USA, Australia won our Independence through peaceful resolution. Though we had to keep the union jack in our flag, that many now wish to change. Some soldiers don't want this cause they went to war for this flag. Dad says he went to war for the people. This is my belief. Soon I can see our nation becoming a republic. I like the idea of the Commonwealth but since the death of the Queen mom and Dianna I'm looking more towards the republic side. Even prince Charles says we're stupid for not breaking away from the British.

This next pic is the kangaroo an Australian Icon and our National Animal (the only national animal in any country that can be eaten by its people{this might be a joke but it really does taste like chicken- maby a bit of steak flavour})

This is the most downloaded Australian symbol by other nations, and I could only find it on a Peurto Rican website. A national tragedy Black Saturday named after the scorched earth thousands of animals died and many, many humans {I live in the area, most of the year BTW} this shot became famous during that time. Also note that the fire that destroyed entire towns was lit on purpose!

This is my home town from helicopter.

This is our longest street it streaches across out desert the Nulabour Plains it is a straight road that goes for 5000 miles {you gotta wonder why there is a zebra crossing in the middle of it? :lol:}

I might update this tomorrow

Happy Australia Day :D

UPDATED SECTION

This is for @NinoSwaG who wants to see the greener Australia but you can all enjoy. Most of this is Queensland but there is a pic from Tasmaina.

I've been to the waterfall here near Adelaide

Take a look atAustralia Mk2 for photos that I took and a coulpe of others :D

I found these by myself enjoy

I found that you can make unlimited money and EXP: In Lothering find Allison who wants you to make her three traps (be sure to have the skill first!). You can buy infinite triggers to make the traps in Danes Refuge so create 99 she will keep taking them in sets of three giving EXP and 50 silver each time(the triggers only cost 2 silver!).

Near end of dead trenches in a sarcophagus(in a large hall area) you'll find the Legion armor need 42 str it has armor 21.88 -found with dwarf .

(Not Johnny Depp sorry)

I just read that Pirates have ripped off Mass Effect 2 and put it on-line 5 daysearly. Some people might think,"wow that's great!".

But you must think of it this way. If Bioware does not get the money from retail game sales. They will not be able to make Mass Effect 3. Games companies are losing billions of dollars from this insidious crime, that denies publishers, developers, and us the gaming public great new games.

In the past games could be made by one person, now though it takes far more. Assassins Creed Two for example took a massive group of 250 people, then you have to add on the costing for equipment, coffee, research travel expenses, add campaigns, lawyers and so on and then you need to make a profit.

If you don't getyour payback then you'll be sued byfired staff who can't be paid, you can't hire more people to make a new game and you file eventually for bankruptcy.

I know a lot about this because of my Agent and help from the Copyright Department out of Canberra.

I love this song, but when I have writers block I write stupid stuff like this for fun - To any one living in Alabama this is a parody. Also I have nothing against hillbillies (don't really know that much about you)I just needed a ryme near the endand the Beverly-Hillbillies were on so it gave me the idea. If some one is offended I'll take this down just let me know - I'm a Liberal.

If your wise enough to know I'm not serious, think of the song, while you sing what you read herein your head, andenjoy :)

Sweet Home Alabamba Falcon Edit.

Sweet home in Alabama grey sky's blank out the blue.

Living in tornado ally, no mater how you see it were all screwed.

I sat down in the outhouse, the wind blew up I don't kid you.

It flung me far across the Mississippi.

And so began the tale of the flying loo.

Sweet home in Alabama comin' home to my kin.

Ended up marring my sister, hillbilly life it's oh so true.

Well uncle Bob made the moonshine, it picks me up when I'm feeling Blue.

We also use it to run our truck and clean rust off the barn door too.

Sweet home in Alabama, oh sweet home, grey sky's blank out the blue.

Livin' on a coast of cyclones, no mater how you see it were all screwed.

WillI need xbox live ifI buy Dragon Age Awakening in a store?

I just read a great book. I wanted to saver it so it took about five hours over two days. Mass Effect Revelation is a wonderful prequel taking place before ME1 and who's main character is Lt Anderson the Captain from the Game and sheds some light on much back story that was intriguing from when I picked it up. It also introduces new characters into the fold and a familiar face that I won't spoil for you. I guessed the ending but it took me much longer to do so that normal. It's well written and a bit more violent than the game. If you haven't played the game read this and you will, if you have played the game this will add to the experience. I'll review Ascension but I'm going to try and read it over the days till ME2 comes out.

Adults will notice this more than kids, but time goes by realy fast. Years slip by and before you know it your 25. But when your awaiting some thing, and your nealy theretime slows. I am waiting my next game and time slows till it seems like that month is longer than the last year that passed. For my book its far worse. But I want to know how others deal with the flux of percived time. Today I read a three hundred page book in one sitting. It helped but now it's over. When I wait I have the strange tendancy to clean the house, and I get invited around to the family because they know this happens :lol:

I'm writing this becauseI am bored and when everI have writers block I write any thing down.

So how do you fight boredom?

and don't say games because the consoles ar to hot in this heat!
