Well, leave it to us wacky Americans to poke a little fun now & then . . . :LOL: . . . it was a "real" question, hopefully not too ignorant of me to ask ! I have a certain Navy Fondness for Australia - though never been, I've "run into" a few Aussie Sailors overseas . . . generally nice guys, but they DO like their "Big GULP" beer ! :) ;) . They can most definitely drink Our guys Under-The-Table ! :clap:

No no, I'm just messing. What I meant was. Wisconsin guys? I probably shouldnt brag. Alcoholism is a serious issue.

I went to UW Madison frequently ranked top 5 party schools in USA.

I'd me more concerned about the Bad Cholesterol clogging vital blood flow -- trust me I KNOW a thing or 2 cause I've had a thing or 2 ! Nearly Killed me at the ripe age of 48 ! Now I'm "dealing" with IT again . You "Cheese Heads" should get an annual cholesterol check, seriously !

Jeez! Yeah, my doc says I gotta learn to like to exercise. Probably good advice. I'm 35, 180 lbs. My dad's 72, 250lbs. This is why I need a JTR, force me to do more outside stuff. =)

Well, it's an illiteration at least... Dribble, drivel, drool!!! Maybe it's an oxymoron. Dunno. How about A twist? Yeah, like I was watching the fake jeep news dribble out, such drivel! And then I drooled again looking at the build site. Dang it! These morons ought add price to this equation; it sort of matters! Hey wait. Where's my fucking two door option?

Went to the Brisbane JeepClub Website . . . Very Nice . . . didn't realize there IS a Fan Club for the Wrangler ! Tell me, you say your American ? So then, you avoid Winter by traveling back and forth to Australia and California - Winter here/Summer their kinda thing ? That sounds like FUN, wish I had the means - I'd prefer NZ. - for the Fly Fishing ! I know a guy who runs a (the) lodge on the South Island . However, financially, we are in 2 different worlds . Are you a Captain of some sort ?

Ha! Nah, I've lived in AU for a decade... just get back for holidays and vacations at times... I sail. Bought a yacht in Mexico and spent six months cruising Mexico before taking a year to cross the South Pacific. We then raced her in the Sydney Hobart yacht race (one of the more difficult sailing races around)... So the CaptStarboard is a play on that... you call out "Starboard" when someone is coming at you and you have right of way...

I'll go dribble in the corner, waiting the next two years for the Gladiator to make it over here and save up my average salary to buy it
