I think we need to be careful here that we don't turn thecheese's topic into something else...

I just think it's been detracted from Australia a bit towards American culture, so to bring it back on topic (and get flamed for what I'm going to say but I just can't resist it!).

I thought the Australians could play Rugby?? :grin:

First of all, I am sorry for reacting so harshly to thecheese's post. I am an emotional person, and I guess reading the post following a bad day didn't help. I apologize. I didn't agree with everything in the post, yet I don't want people to think I am this evil put downing person.

Second of all, I am sorry for kinda leading a change of thecheese's intent of the thread. I apologize. I shouldn't have done that.

Thirdly, I am sorry for calling Bush an idiot. Actually, no I am sorry if I offended anybody by calling him an idiot. Sometimes I just don't agree with him and lately I have been disagreeing more and more.

Fourthly, yes I have been reading Macbeth. Actually I had to recite that solioquy for the class that day, so it was fresh in my mind.

Fifthly, I hope I did not make anyone angry. I am not angry, and I would like to have thecheese know that I hope that they don't think I am a horrible mean person. I am sorry. I actually can be quite pleasant, and I hope to get to know you in the future here at BaO!

Thecheese has a point.I'm not sure that anyone of you heard for Serbia or Yugoslavia,and some people when they here this name think that is probably a country that didn't hear for electricity :evil: (Nikola Tesla is from exYugoslavia)I'm not judging anyone I'm just saying you should give someone a chance to talk him and get to know him...
The point is to be nice to everybody and don't judge too early,U can lose a good friend...
