Australia Trip
OK, so here I am in the sunburned country. Not much to report. All seems well here, solid ally, coalition appears to be holding. Sports are as ridiculous as ever. Australia is dominant in cricket right now. Woo. Imagine baseball where the pitcher runs from the outfield to the pitchers mound, and then throws the ball. Nothing happens, and everyone has tea. This goes on for 4 days. Oh, and they wear sweaters. Now this is a game played in India and Australia. Sweaters. Sometimes you just have to let traditions go…and step up to baseball.

Dude — spot on re: cricket. I have never sat through a more tedious game in my life. Great way to get drunk though — two or three gin and tonics, and an excuse to drink before noon :). Hope you had fun — remember: slip, slap, slop!!!
