OT: Ozzies

Ran across this - don't bother opening if you can't laugh at broad stereotypical humour. Not like 'Muricans aren't funny in our own ways...

Well - fudged that link - seems to work if you excise the <> brackets before you paste it. Is that the guy from Trailer Park Boys as the weatherman?

go see the movie chopper starring eric bana
then you might have a clue who it is meant to be an impression of.

But not in real life :) Yea he's an archetypical modern day Ned Kelly (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ned_Kelly) (Robin Hood) of Oz folklore. Blunt, dry-witted and an enemy of the establishment. Something that many people that came here 200 years ago had in common! :) Nick (Have to go watch Trailer Park Boys now...) what is that... :D

A show about dope growing Canadian lads living the life in a trailer park - stealing and selling shopping carts, driving the finest POS cars, doing porno films for $$$, checking in and out of jail, having gunfights, and all, in Julien's case, while holding a drink. Canadian tv at it's finest. Wish it would come back into rotation here in the states. A favorite of mine. Not as violent as Chopper it seems, but similiar speech mannerisms... Not a BMW to be seen!
