[nataraja]

I have moved from Nazi Denmark to Rome, Italy.

It think Italy is a great place at the moment. The italiens are so unstructured and it makes it very difficult for them to make a big brother society.

In Denmark every thing is structured and regulated. We have speeding ticket camaras.

In Denmark every phone and internet activity has to be logged by the phone/internet provider. New Nazi law to keep us safe from terror.

Italy is a country with allot of chaos. It is the nature of the country. I have never felt so safe and free before. It is wonderful.

40% of the Italy's economy is money that haven't been taxed. In Denmark the state have everything in a register and they know how much money you have on your bank account and every citizen has a CPR nr that is a number where the state have allot of information about each citizen.

But I want more freedom. I have also been thinking about Cayman Islands or Belize.

Yea those drop bears can get nasty and quite horrifying. I remember once we were walking through the bush and suddenly out of know where on of these drop bears dropped onto one of my friends! :ouch:Almost had him ripped to pieces if it wasn't for the local aboriginal riding his faithful kangaroo, the aboriginal speared the drop bear a few times, the bastard finally fell, my mate was in hospital for 4 months.

Moral of the story, BE CAREFUL OF THE DROP BEARS!! :shocked:

You shouldn't take the wildlife of Australia lightly. They have the worlds most dangerous animal life.

I would rather live in a Bush police state then the Australian nature. At least you are warned when a FEMA officer is coming after you.

But this little silence Funnel-web spider monster can kill you without you even know what hit you.

Oh believe me, I don't underestimate the wildlife of Australia.

Being all too familiar with the wildlife of Arizona, I understand the entire different level on which Australian fauna operates.

I was just joking around in a cloud of euphoria, haha, I just dropped a wine glass though, which managed to somehow cut a pretty nice gash in my foot on the bounce off of our kitchen floor. Now I'm bleeding/happy/concerned. Haha.

It would be worse if I was checking my (now bloody) slippers for scorpions though...

I guess we have to recognize our fragility when looking at the critters of the world.

I'll choose cold over fauna though, I'm just simple that way I guess.

Australia is like a wildlife Al Quada terror state.
What about this killer jellyfish:

Quote:Pale blue, transparent and shaped like a box about the size of your head, the Box Jellyfish is found along the northern Australian coasts and has been described as the world’s deadliest venomous animal.

The danger of the Box Jellyfish lies in its tentacles, which when hunting stretch out to three metres in length and are covered in thousands of stinging cells, which fire off when they touch an animal. The pain is so excruciating that victims often go into shock and drown before they reach help. Death can occur in less than four minutes, the venom attacking the nervous system, the heart and the skin.

Box Jellyfish have no reason to ‘attack’ humans. The incredible killing power of the stings is to instantly immobilize the prawns and fish that the jellyfish feed on, not to deliberately harm humans.

I fear the box killer jellyfish more then this nice FEMA guy:

First it tortures you for 4 mins with a pain that is indescribable and then the pain will stun you so you drown.

Quote:and of course, don't forget the Fosters :tongue:

:yuck:I feel like a Tooheys.
