#9  I guess losing Steve Irwin was a bigger loss for Australia than I realized.

#8  I lived in small town- or no town- Australia for 50 years. Girls tended to hate the life- when they finished High School they were out of there. The jobs available suited boys just fine- farming, ranching, mining, fishing, trucking, construction and so on.

#7  I suspect those whopping big ranches make it hard to get the population density required for small towns to start, grow and thrive as they did here.

#5  #2 & #3 - I too would love to help out. When I was in Sydney a few years ago, it seemed that all of the local women were beautiful.
Unfortunately, my wife won't let me.

#4  Salt's says the solution for older women is to move out of the cities and into the remote, rural farming and mining communities where men are still in plentiful supply.

LOL Good advice, I guess

#2  Gotta go to Australia.

Last time I went (pre-Divorce) I fell in love with the place. The little kids thought I talked like a cowboy because of my american (Californian) accent. Cute little tykes.

#1  I'm sure that Nigerian imam can take care of 80 or so of these women. Even more if the government benefit levels are high.
