Well I can imagine the party getting more relaxed now. The atmosphere is a bit smokey, people are lounging about or dancing. So time for another poem:


Time to throw a few prawns on the barbie, mate.... and crack open the XXXX!

BTW, if anyone's wondering why Aussies drink XXXX it's because they can't spell beer! (sorry for the ancient joke )

Ok, in honor of Flaygor and the rest of the Aussies:

"In South Australia, I was born,
Heave away, haul away,
South Australia, round Cape Horn,
I'm bound for South Australia!"

That's the only part I know as that's the part that gets sung before the dance begins.

*shudders* How dare you accuse me of being an Australian!

just joking.
I'm actually a Kiwi, just because I'm having a drink and a BBQ with Aussies doesn't mean I want to be one!

But. But.. I thought Fosters was Australian for beer? That's what all of those older commercials led me to believe anyway!

Yes, Fosters is a popular beer. It is Victorian and XXXX is actually a Queensland beer. At one time, maybe there still is, there was a lot of competition between the Australian States as to which beer is the best.

I am a bad Aussie. I don't even like beer

Oh, sorry for the mix up! I always associate the expression "Put another shrimp on the barbie" with Australians and with Crocodile Dundee in particular. So...sheep instead of kangaroos, right? Land of the Hobbits.

Sadly, given my memory, I'll probably forget at some point and call you Australian again. Please don't take it personally.

Double post, I know, but this is so much later than the first. I have a rough draft here. Please look at it and suggest some edits. I was thinking of the U.S. Pledge of Allegiance:

We pledge allegiance to Sim nation
of the neighborhoods and Sims we adore
And to the community that binds us
by experience, love, and respect
one Sim nation,
made in ours and Will Wright's imagination,
Let us be undivided,
with friendship and merriment all around.

Trying to emphasize common experience over preference for individual games.

There is a mod mustluvcatz
I think that she also likes hats
She is always so kind
When speaking her mind
'Cause simmers can sometimes be brats
