Resolved Question: What is it like to live in the Australian Outback?
I'm looking to spend a gap year working and living in the Australian outback. I've never been to Australia before, but I've always wanted to go. Can anyone tell me what life is like in the outback? Travel? Internet? etc... Thanks =)It will be working on a ranch or cattle/sheep station I think. What are these like? moreResolved Question: Is this Ant and Dec's last visit to the Australian (Sort of) outback?
moreResolved Question: Australia's disneyland?
I know it doesn't exist. I'm creating one as a hobby...and I know this doesn't go in this section, but I frequent here a lot, and I know this section gets more traffic than "Amusement Parks" So, let's assume Australia is getting a Disney Resort with two parks: A magic kingdom (Disneyland) and an Australian theme park "Australia's Downunder Adventure" or "Disney's Downunder Ad...etc" I need help deciding the names for the sections of my new park: Section one: The entrance. This is a courtyard with a huge flower display of the logo. It also contains miniatures of Australia's major icons. I'm thinking of making it like a "merging of times", past, present and future. It doesn't necessarily need a name. The Mountain of Dreaming (better name? suggestions accepted gladly): In the tradition of Disney parks to have a giant "miniature" of something, be it castle, tree or whatever, as the park icon, Downunder Adventure will have a large mountain with indigenous art and images of Australiana and Oceania sculpted into it. You have to walk through it to get to any of the other 5 lands. Now I need help with names: Land one: A dreamtime/ indigenous themed land. Paying respect and teaching people about the History of Australia's first people (usually through Showtime Spectaculars and demonstration shows). Land two: Outback/Romantic History of Australia: The farms, the bush. Shows and rides dealing with Australia's most prominent identity. Land three: DisneyQuest Interactive Park: a large building filled with interactive videogames. Land four: Oceania: A tribute to the other nations who inhabit the Pacific. Land five (or a segment of Land four): Convict Cove, will be a water park. Also a scale-replica of an early convict ship, which will serve as a Theatre-restaraunt of a pirate theme (you know which pirates). Land six (or 5): a zoo. People come to Australia to see our wildlife, and Australians love our wildlife. The Rescuers (a disney film) will feature prominently here. So, any name suggestions for my lands? moreResolved Question: The disneyland in australia?

It just threw stuff in there. Something "home grown" would be more succesful here than something "imported". Also, I was thinking more of tourists than locals. People come to Australia to experience...australia. moreResolved Question: What's your favourite Western movie set outside of the U.S/North America?
Mine is The Proposal, an Australian/outback Western drama. Truly a breathtaking, intelligent film. And just goes to show that to make a very good Western it doesn't need to be set in the US. Butch Cassidy is set in Argentina I believe? That's a pretty good film too. Anyone else?Rocky, you didnt read the question. The Good The Bad and The Ugly is SET SET SET SET SET in America.

I've made plans to visit Australia with a close friend. We're gonna be staying at her family's home in Melbourne. I'm a bit worried about visiting Australia, especially Melbourne, because of the ongoing attacks on Indian students. Those who think these attacks are not racist, they're just robberies - get real. Yes, some of the attacks aren't specifically about race, they may be just robberies - but some attacks are racially motivated. It's called "curry bashing." Anyway, I refused going to Australia last year, but I have to go this year. What should I do to make sure I'm not a victim? I'm interested in seeing some of the Australian outback. The coral reef. The giant rock. You know, things I can't see or do in the USA. I'm not interesting in visiting malls or bars or nightclubs - there's plenty here where I live. And I've partied enough in Vegas. moreResolved Question: If you could go and see one place of interest (e.g the pyramids) or a place of natural wonder (e.g amazon)...?

he went into the outback alone, without a phone, without a beacon, without signing the hostel outback book, wearing dark clothes and no safety blanket which would have kept him warm at night and shaded him in the day Now he's sold his story to Australian TV for around £100k The search must have cost thousands of pounds so should he be allowed to profit from his stupidity which will probably encourage Other idiots to do the same, or should be be fined to pay back some at least of what he cost?Dave - please doSaturn Six - I'm sure you don't want to hear what I've got in mind for THEMHelen - if it were my child I'd be overjoyed that s/he'd survived, but would not wish them to benefit from it. moreResolved Question: Would you like to sit on the veranda of a wooden cottage?

Well. I was just reading some things. Btw, im not planning on moving down under. I just think its annoying when people from Australia keep banging on about how AMAZING Australia is, and how cr***y the UK is. Well, you might not have even been there. I agree, the weather is kind of rubbish. But other than that-the UK is beautiful in lots of places, and yes the roads are small big why should they be any bigger?Its our own country, please dont tell us what to do! Also, there are loads of pompous Australians(no offence) working in London, and also on beaches all around the UK. They're all banging on about how much better Australia is, and how they worked in Bondi Beach or something but (tragically) had to move to this AWFUL country called the UK. Some parts of the UK are horrible in rough places. But who can say that the Australian outback is a nice place to be? I would like your opinions.

We read that the John Molony, the mayor of the Australian outback mining town of Mount Isa, has invited 'beauty disadvantaged' (ie Ugly)women to come to settle in the town. Mount Isa has a woman shortage, their being 5 men to every woman in the town.

You have to love the Australian way of thinking here. I saw this in the Sun today and couldn't help but think, 'Too right!!' An Aussie motorist put a seatbelt around a crate of beer in his car - and left a five-year-old child to sit on the FLOOR. He was pulled over by cops in the Outback who noticed his motor was unregistered. They found two adults in the front, two in the back and the booze between them. The lad was crouched out of sight. Cops said they were "shocked and appalled" and fined the driver £300 near Alice Springs. Still, at least the beer was safe!!I copied this exactly from the Sun newspaper. I know the currency is Australian dollars, but perhaps the Sun had already converted it back into Sterling. I can't believe you have moaned about the term Aussie and other things.

There was a little boy who was taking care of a baby camel and its mother was killed on board the ship during a storm, while crossing the sea to Australia.

Tigers are magnificent creatures - but are gravely endangered by massive reduction of prey and habitat from human development in overpopulated Asia. Australia, by contrast, possesses wastes of scrubland where people are vastly outnumbered by plagues of kangaroos regarded as pests... ergo: let the Tigers thrive on this plethora of roos behind specially fenced-off boundaries in well-guarded game-parks. Don't forget, it has considerable recreational potential too. Seems to me like a win-win solution for all concerned... moreResolved Question: What's going on....?
"Jack, it's your brother, Bob, here," came the voice down the telephone line. "Im not going to be able to get back for dad's funeral because Im stuck in the Australian outback. Do something nice for him and send me the bill." So Jack did as his brother wished and sent Bob a bill for £100 which Bob paid immediately. However the following month, Bob received another bill for £100 and this happened each and every month. Eventually he managed to catch up with Jack and asked him what was going on.

about 10 years ago i was recommended a book and do not know the title or author. It was about a girl in the Australian Outback who met up and travelled with a tribe of Aboriginis. One part of the book talks about a dust storm (or a swarm of flies - cant remember) and they taught her how to deal with it by standing still with her head bowed till it passed. As i was on an educational trip through Africa and we were all from different parts I didnt know the girl who recommended it to me well and obviously now have no way of contacting her. Has anybody heard of this book? moreTop The Australian Outback And Links
