My Australian friends,

One of my hunting buddies came over tonight to eat a bite and drink some beer(medicinal purposes only, I have a kidney stone). The beer was Steinlager(NZ beer) and while opening one of several found the following statement printed on the bottle:

"Okay, okay, we know there are more sheep in New Zealand than people. Twelve times as many, in fact. New Zealand is considered a sanctuary for sheep, where they can live in peace, unmolested by Australians."

After reading this scurrilous statement, we considered(for a second)not finishing the box of beer in protest, supporting our Australian hunting mates but this was a medical emergency, of sorts(ever have a kidney stone?), so I thought bringing it to your attention would suffice.

I swear we would have been consuming Aussie beer but we only get Fosters(Australian for beer) and it is made in Montreal, Canada(don't forget the stone).

Guys, please tell us it a'int so!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Joe
