FORGET the lucky country - Australia has been branded the land of the great, big rip-

[tranquilized]

I've travelled to a lot of countries around the world. From what I've seen we definitely have a lot to be grateful for. The fact that so many of us are actualy able to travel to other countries just for fun is one of those things, and is easy to forget.

But the blind belief so many have about the awesomeness of Australia, even though in many cases they have never been to any other country, is.... amusingly ignorant.
