Re: Come To Australia Everybody!
[chuckles] I think I'll stick with Maryland-- all we have to worry about are copperheads and rattlesnakes, and those aren't exactly what I'd call common... Oh, and the occasional shark who gets lost and wanders up the Chesapeake or near our Atlantic shoreline. But then, they're never BIG sharks, and when they wander up the Chesapeake they get run over by some redneck in a speedboat.
Anyway, my family's poor-- or cheap, what's the difference? We've never even left the East Coast. (Note: I'm including everything between Florida and Maine; Ohio; Tennessee; and portions of Canada in my "East Coast") And anyway-- it is really hard to drive to Australia.
