Eric since you sent me cool toys. my wife and i bought your boys some stuffed toys from australia.
i obviously know what little boys are like. so i got 2 x crocodiles and 2 x koalas so there is no fights on who gets what. and for you Eric. a small jar of Vegemite =] we got the cream cheese and vegemite mix its much nicer than pure vegemite
Ever since the "Men at Work" song, I have been curious about "Vegemite". Eric after you have tried it, you must share the experience with us.
I have traveled my whole life and can say I have been more than halfway around this planet, missing Asia and Down Under. Australia and New Zealand have always been a dream. Every time I have the means to make that dream come true I change my mind. The flight from Newark to Hawaii was long enough, I don't think these old joints could handle the flights to my Dreamlands. New Zealand especially, the home of my favorite soprano (Not Tony

) Hayley Westenra. God what a voice. Plus I'd love to see the scenery in person that Peter Jackson used for the LOTR trilogy, soon to be,....Quad-logy?

Damn, rambling again.
Let us know about the vegemite after you try it Eric.
Mookie, thanks for stirring up the puddle I sometimes call my mind.
