Although I have lived in Australia since 1963 I had no knowledge of Werribbee ducks until you enlightened me.<br /><br />Badger, I've been confused lately by a truck named Badger Earthworks but carrying a bobcat!<br /><br />Deadliest Catch! sounds even more exciting and risky than Trawlermen that's been showing on SBS. The TV crew followed 12 fishing boats working out of Scottish ports, catching a range of seafood.Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10806660109196835114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804114935312811175.post-76917547791333952642010-01-31T13:39:01.929-05:002010-01-31T13:39:01.929-05:00'I wonder if Her Majesty has one.'

I mean, there has to be *something* remotely benign and non-embarrassing in our culture. Linens. We produce some nice and very affordable linens. Excellent coffee. NPR. That's all I can come up with on the spot, but I'm sure there's more.Wanderlusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12099758957492165428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804114935312811175.post-7970248191141546202010-01-29T16:32:28.425-05:002010-01-29T16:32:28.425-05:00Maybe I'm your only regular reader who's s...Maybe I'm your only regular reader who's so out of touch with the world at large, and our native land in particular, that I had no idea whatsoever why Werribee ducks have the reputation of being shitty. I had no trouble obtaining the missing knowledge, which I can now transmit to any other ignoramuses like me. Werribee is a suburb to the west of Melbourne (Victoria, Australia). Apparently, this municipality (located not far from the ocean) is the terminus for sewage from the metropolis of Melbourne. You can easily imagine the state of an unsuspecting duck that decides to alight here and waddle around for a while in the Werribee mud. I'm told that Victorian children learn at school: If it looks like a duck, waddles like a duck, quacks like a duck, but smells of shit, then it's probably a Werribee duck.William Skyvingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10052367756561555096noreply@blogger.com
