DAMN IT!

There's a house a couple miles away that I always pass.  They normally have a HUGE inflatable turkey setup in their yard.  Last week it was setup, but today it was deflated.  >:( :flipoff:

Oh well...  still looking for a turkey

Yesterday, work sent me to this place that has a couple of Scrub Turkey's wondering around. Every time I go there I see these things. And so I parked the bike near where I always see them - and - nothing. Nowhere to be seen.

But, while I was talking to a couple of guys working there who were having a breather under the shade of a tree, some Kangaroos came to visit...







Then I thought I'd see how close I could get to them and shot this 38 second video http://www.flickr.com/photos/40483221@N05/4122883356/

No bike in the pics or footage, just something different to see in an industrial estate in suburbia

You think you're so cool with your kangaroos over in Australia, some of us have never even seen a real kangaroo. Well guess what, we have BROWN RECLUSES! *point for Georgia*

That is the name of the specie, and they are definitely brown. Guess this picture just has some odd lighting/exposure or something. A better one -



And for those weak of stomach, I'll just post the link for a picture of what it can do to you --

"deaf child at play"

I have never ever seen one of those signs. And I've lived in Australia's 1st, 3rd and 6th largest cities. Plus, I ride past a school with special facilities for deaf kids every couple of days. No such signs.

Must be a US thing.

Dang. Even Google images is scant on those signs.

Pssst. Come closer. Closer. I need to whisper something...

:whisper: Make the challenge a picture of your bike with a Close Up of the horizon. That'll drive yooblonder total insane  :icon_mrgreen:

Ok. Yooblonder. The stage is set. What exactly is this flag challenge of yours?

Awww, that's awfully kind of ya.  I was only pretending to be in the huff... now I feel guilty!  Ok, seems like its down to me for the next challenge...

"Your bike with a real, full-size country flag (not regional or state), but NOT of the country that your are in; and stating the country of the flag's origin."

That's it... probably an easy one for ex-Pats or avid travellers?

I see this flag challenge NOT being done. :fact

I know at the U.N., there's a bunch of different flags, but I'm pretty sure they don't actually have a sign sying which country they're from.
