at the US-based Free Republic bulletin board.

Wow... proof at last that somewhere, on the other side of the planet, there is at least one journalist or editor who knows the difference between a bulletin board and a blog.

Vegemite is some great medicine for morning hangovers for foreigners in AU. Once the first bite hits your tongue, you have a "Am I eating salty beer vomit?" moment, and all the other ills you have fade away in comparison.

Well, I just checked my pantry and it appears either Rove or Cheney has confiscated my box of Weetabix.

No, wait, I ate it all. *Never mind.*

” Another US poster observed, “It's pretty silly for the government to ban something that no native born American will eat in the first place!”

Hey!!!! I'm famous! I was quoted in an Aussie Newspaper web article!!!!! Yippie! (but they didn't site me :-( ) I'm "another US poster." Maybe I should talk to JimRob about changing my handle!

Oops... I just thought of something. I may have just angered a hugh, multinational food conglomerate (Big Food!), plus now the Food Cops might be on to me about eating illegal Jelly Babies while I was in college!

"...an American poster going by the screen name of Fair Opinion at the US-based Free Republic..."

LOL - Take a bow ;o) The Herald-Sun in Oz is now using FR as a source. Congratulations!
