Voting Question: does anyone know the name of an australian movie from late 90's eary 2000's?
i saw it years ago as part of a foreign film series. it was about a family in the outback and their daughter gets lost. instead of using the aborigine tracker to find her they use white man. the girl died because they didn't find her in time, but if they had used the aborigine to help find her she would have lived. i don't think there was any dialogue just music. moreOpen Question: australian kangaroos?

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.

I play VFK, only because VMK closed. VFK is beta, so I know to be patient with it. But just a few minutes ago I found out that there are "Member Packages" and special member items. OMG! Why? VMK didn't need anything like that! It's not fair if other people get to have cool special things and 50,000 extra credits if they pay. I'm not paying for a package like that, and for $50?! That's just insane. First of all, I don't have money falling out of my piggy bank! I'm only 13! Second of all, VMK gave everyone an equal chance at everything, no "Hey, give us $50 and we'll make you Virtually Rich." Ugh, who ELSE thinks this is totally unfair? I do! I mean I know they could use money to pay for the site, so why not donations instead? *sigh* Anyway, I saw in the "Membership package" that there was an Astralian Brumby Horse... but I also found this in the details: "Your very own brumby with stable room. - the only horse able to take you on an adventure in the rugged Australian Outback." I saw 'the only horse able...' and i'm wondering if there are or will be other horses in the game that we can buy with credits. Are there any other horses that us frugal kiddies can buy with our virtual credits? Thanks!!Actually I thought the $10 package was nice. Except you don't get anything with it, do you? It doesn't include any special offers except VFK IM. (Instant Message). I'll check it out. moreResolved Question: Have any of you Australian women been in any interracial relationships before?

I'm Australian and I'm planning on saving $15,000 and either moving to the US (yes i know you can't just move there, I've applied for a visa) OR I'm planning on traveling around Australia to experience what Australia is really all about. I loved Australian history in High School, and I love Aborigional Dreamtime stories and art. How would I go about aproaching Aborigional people to live with them in different parts of Australia for a couple of days at a time. I don't want to intrude on their lives. I plan on writting a book, which will focuse on the lives on 6 young Australians living in the outback, one of them being an aborigionie and I'd love to learn more about them. Has anyone lived with them? Has anyone found them easy to get along with? moreResolved Question: Do I just need to grow up?
I'm going to humble myself for this one I'm 17, turning 18 on Wednesday. Just started college a few months ago, and I'm doing alright. An A and two B's. I don't know what the hell I want to do with my life and I realize a ton of other freshmen feel the same. But it just seems like MOST of the kids I know are so driven and they know exactly what they want to do in life. I don't know what I want to be when I grow up...it's depressing as hell saying "when I grow up" because I'm going to be 18 this week. I tried talking to older students/class counselors, but they just give me some advice like "well what do you like to do?" and then have me fill out some survey about what my dream job is supposed to be. Thing is, it never helps. Hell, I can't even find a major that interests me. So maybe you guys could give me some advice...sad as it sounds you all have helped me out in just about as many situations as good friends (That is, when I weed out the nonsense posts.) My interests: -Sleeping. A lot. Mostly because I have nothing better to do. -Playing fucking video games all day (sad as it sounds, the thing that I would be so so so looking forward to if I was still at home would be picking up the world of warcraft expansion on thursday and playing it for the next 4 days straight locked up in my room with snacks and energy drinks.) -Eating a ton of food (god I love food, I'm a damn aficionado. I mean I really love food, not just eating.) -Girls. I don't want to sound like an obnoxious douche, but I think I'm a pretty good guy. I love having a girlfriend, but I hate searching for one. I'm not the type of guy to go out looking to score a chick...I just usually like to think things just fall into place. You know...you meet the best girls when you aren't really looking. At least all my lasting past relationships started when neither one of us were really looking for a partner. -Partying, drinking. Beer is delicious...I don't understand why so many kids my age hate the taste of beer. Most say "I only like hard shit because I'm not going for the taste and it fucks you up quicker." I'm not drinking to get fucked up, I'm drinking partly for the taste and partly because it relaxes you. -Observing others. Sure I'm social, but damn I love to just sit and observe. Even eavesdrop if you will. I think it's fascinating to see how people go about their daily lives, especially the ones who don't think they are being watched. Sounds creepy...I feel like some damn scientist looking at animals in the Australian outback sometimes. -Driving and getting lost. Back at home I'd just drive around aimlessly for hours (I had nothing to spend my measly paycheck on besides gas and paint.) It was the damn best thing ever. Just drive, get lost, listen to music, explore new places, eat at new restaurants (told you I love food), and even occasionally meet new people. Speaking of which... -Meeting new people....ok, "striking up conversations with random people" is a better way to put it. As stated in Fight Club, I enjoy meeting single-serving friends. Just people you meet, talk with for a bit, and never see again in your life. You know, like a store clerk or waiter or something. Nevermind, don't see where I'm going with this one. -Smoking...bad for me, but hell life is short and I'm not active enough to need any sort of wind. -Watching movies. Damn I love movies almost as much as I love food. I'm a huge movie buff, and I'm in the process of going through all these "movies to see before you die" lists. -Reading books. Same with movies...I didn't really get into reading books of my own choosing until recently. Never was an avid reader. I just finished "The Catcher in the Rye" today. Now I really want to just leave my dorm room and get lost in LA by myself one day...too bad I have to study for some stupid middterm on my birthday. -Paintball, though I never play anymore since coming to college. Oh well...I'll admit it was never that good. But having fun was the point for me...I'm trying to have that mindset about life now too. I asked some upperclassman on my floor about how I should go about picking my major and he asked "Well, what are you good at?" I don't think being good at something is as important as doing something you enjoy. I suck at tourney paintball but I love it. I suck at WoW but I love that too. I suck at shooting real guns, but it's fun. I love learning about military tactics and history, but a week in ROTC taught me it's not for me. Reading this above list, I wish I would have learned to value my time in high school. I wish I would have gotten all of these things out of my system before coming here. But oh no, there's no turning back now. There's no dropping out, there's no "taking a year off." My family would fucking disown me. I'm the first to go to college in my family. I appreciate them giving me this opportunity, but I just don't know what to do with my life now that I'm here. All I know moreResolved Question: whats that ad with the corn in australia?

I think I am getting depressed or something. We have been living in this remote town for 10 months now, we have a daughter who is nearing 3 years old and I am 32 weeks pregnant with our son. Anyway, every time I make a friend here, they are gone within a couple of months. I feel like I can't take it anymore, I am so lonely, not only am I lonely but there is very little to do here and I feel like I can't keep my kid occupied because the town is so boring, and it is REALLY hot (in the australian outback). Should I leave my fiance to get away from this place? It is driving me crazy and I hate it so much. He is on contract here for another year and a bit, he can break the contract but it would be costly as he would need to reimburse for moving expenses and then pay for all our stuff to be moved back to the city. Should I stay or should I go? moreResolved Question: What do people in other countries think of Australia?

Hey Here's a chance to think up of a name to get into a book I'm writing. I'm a nobody at the moment, but hope to start writing this book end of January next year (a while to go i know). I am writing a book about a group of extraordinary young australians, who live in the outback. Their lives are turned upside down, when a series of events unfold and they find out their families are not all they seemed. There are secrets and amazing adventures ahead. I have a character who is about 17 or 18. She lives in the city on her own. She learned to survive on her own from a young age. She's a very independent, don't take crap from anyone type of girl. She's doing very well for herself though. She's not living in the slumps of Melbourne. She's very kind but is very alert of where her life is headed. Shes basically got herself to thank for the life shes now living. I have a sister who matches her personality, and her name is Fiona, but I don't think the name matches this young woman's personality. Shes a very strong person. A leader and very curious about things. I don't think the name matches this character though... The young woman is very pretty, she has piercing blue eyes, black long hair which she wears mostly in a ponytail. What name do you think matches this characters description? I'm looking for preferably an unusual strong australian name, but hit me with anything!Kyra is awesom!Nice answers so far... I like the idea of having a strong name but one that mabye friends could cutesy up a bit. Like someone answer was Joanne, Joanie for friends. I like that... although the name is prob not right.

I know Australia has masses of space, but most of the continent is barren and inhospitibal, and has compartively little infrastructure compared to Australia's major cities. 80-90% of Australia's population lives in urban areas, such as Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane and most foreign immigrants to Australia pretty much universially want to live in the major Australian cities. Not many people want to move to a small country town in the outback. As all of Australia's major cities are on relatively small strips of land on the coast, do they stand a risk of having too many people in too small an area, and overusing the land? Does the Australian government intend to try and expand cities more inland to cope with the rising population and immigration, or are they just going to continue to cram houses and people into the city limits of Australia's current major cities? moreResolved Question: ♥Vadim Dale from Outback Jack?

I need to think up a name of an outbank drama series similar to mcleods daughters, but it is about the mystery of a curse left on the farm. Maybe I'll choose one of yours, maybe I'll think up my own, but I really appreciate your answers. Thanks! moreResolved Question: Western Australia Election . . I'm confused . . help . .!?
The Western Australian Government election has produced a "Hung Government" Neither the Liberals or Labour has the majority . . so they are enlisting on the help of The National Party to come on board and make either party have the majority over the other. The National Party only has about 3 or 4 seats - so their manifesto is NOT what the majority of the State wants . . however Labour and Liberal have very similar manifestos (like an extension of the rail network, money for police, schools and hospitals etc) The National Party has said that they want 700million dollars for "rehabilitation of the outback" and any party must agree to this to get their backing (and therefore the majority vote and control over WA Government) The majority of the voters DID NOT agree to this $700 million "gift" to the National Party or we would have voted for them - which we did not. Instead, we wanted that money to go on improved school, hospitals and transport. A deal with the National Party would take these funds away and the rail/school/hospital plans would be scrapped. Just a thought . .please, anyone - as I am REALLY confused. Why don't the Liberal and Labour parties join together in this instance as they both seem to have pretty much the same manifesto as apposed to the wildly eccentric manifesto of The National Party that hardly anyone agrees with? moreResolved Question: What is Morse Code ?
I am from the Australian outback an come to the city to my uncles and he asked me to ask questions here. moreResolved Question: Why do people need to hate on us for having a 4wd?
I asked a question of if we should have a landcruiser or a prado, we already have a landcruiser but I am thinking of changing, and I get negative answers about being a gas hog etc. I care about the environment a lot but we live in the australian outback and we need to have a 4wd as it is safer for hitting into cattle and kangaroos plus we drive for 14 hours and have a car seat in the back, another one to add in december AND two dogs (plus suitcases and shopping!) I get why people don't like 4wd's in the city, but why do people automatically assume that other people live in cities anyway? moreResolved Question: Please help me my dog has become aggressive?
My lovely staffordshire bull terrier, who is 4 years old, has become aggressive and bit my daughter. I live in the australian outback and the nearest vet is a 5 hour drive away. I cannot leave my daughter alone as she is too young, and she will not get into the car with the dog. Over the last few days I had hoped the problem would go away, and my beloved old dog would return to her former, kind self. This however has not been the case. She has become even more aggressive over the last few days - I have at times had to lock her in a room. I have, with great pain and suffering, decided that the only thing o do is to put my lovely dog to sleep. I work as a farmer, so have ready access to strychnine. I will not let some stranger end my dogs life, but have the courage and decency to do the deed myself. Unless anyone has any convincing suggestions, I will do the deed in a few hours time. As I stated, I cannot drive to the vets, as my daughter will not be in the car with the dog - she screams like a banshee whenever she sees it; and she is too young to be left alone. There is unfortunately no way the vet (I know him) will drive out here. I don't want to here about what I am going to do being against the law - are all laws right? a short time ago women were not allowed to vote, was that right? I am doing this because as much as I love my dog ( and I do, very much, she has wanted for nothing in her life with me), I love my daughter more. If anyone can offer any advice, any alternative way to proceed, I would be grateful.There's no sitter round here - I'm now paying the price foe wanting to live in seculsion. My car only has 2 seats - and my daughter WONT be in the car with the dog. My sole purpose has bee BYB's, BSL's, and puppy mills, I never thought this would happen.Please ignore Courage's odd comments, he has been stalking me for some time on this forum.

I'm an Australian & I have just read that question in this section, posted by the one who calls herself THE REAL ROGUE. It is embarrassing to read comments like she has made as not all people from Oz think like she does. She is the type who have us stereotyped as ignorant yobs. She probably has not travelled beyond the boundaries of the hick outback town she obviously dwells in. moreResolved Question: australian couple in the outback?

Althea, I am certain my daughter hasn't been mistreating - and just an hour ago it attacked me for no reason. This dog is certainly not suitable for an elderly person - I can barely control him myself. I think the injection is to on;y way forward unfortunately.Aseg, thanks for the advice, but I think it's too late for a trainer, besiders, how would I get one? I doubt they would drive out here, and this situation cannot go on for much longer, my daughter needs to feel safe. I phoned the vet yesterday, and he said he'd be happy to look at my dog if I bring her in. When I asked him if he'd drive out here he just laughed. I guess i'm paying the price now for living a secluded life.I thank you all for your advice. horsezba, there's no way my daughter would be fooled by a covered cage, and there is simply no way she'll be in the car with the dog. She screams like a banshee if she even sees it; a 5 hour drive in a small car isn't going to happen. Working on a farm has given me experience with putting animals to sleep. I'm going to inject about 400mg of strychnine nitrate into the dogs carotid artery. I will hold her as she passes away. moreResolved Question: How to put on accents?
