It's a wonderful Oz

Ah, Mr. Speaker, I'll miss Australia.
- I'll miss the entire state of South Australia, although most of my time there was spent in cramped University office spaces. Still, Adelaide was a wonderfully quaint "big-city", and the Australian winter was nice.
- I'll miss the Sydney Monorail, which only manages to go in one fairly useless circle. I can't help but humming the monorail song from The Simpsons while observing it.
- I'll miss the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, particularly Humour Australia's takes on political press conferences and Fahrenheit 9/11 - The Musical (note -- these are both RealAudio files).
- And, I'll miss the Australian Election. Some web-sites will help appease my fix, but it just won't be the same. I mean, it's not every day when you get a rock star from the '80's now running for a major political party.
Now, what we need is Kylie Minogue running for the Australian Labour Party. That would spice things up.
