AUSTRALIA

I had a sister who left Texas in the 60s and immigrated with her family to Australia. Too many of "those people!" were moving into good neighborhoods and getting uppity.

She found it to be like moving into mid-america in the 30s. Loved it for a while. Until the socialized medicine almost killed her husband and the school system limited her children. She is now a happy retiree in Houston.

I think our relationship with Australia is closer now than at any time since WWII.

" AUSTRALIA will lead the first exercise aimed at intercepting vessels suspected of carrying weapons of mass destruction, the Government announced today. ".

Interesting.........

Canada has been leading and executing this program in the Gulf and surrounding area since 9-11.

But that's ok....we don't need to wave flags and hit the headlines everyday to know when we are doing our part in the " War On Terrorism ".
