Australia Day!

It's Australia Day!

For those who sympathize with the continuing plight of the Indigenous Australian population, it's 'Invasion day'; and a day to remember the cruelty of man the need for cultural empathy.

For everyone else, it's a day to listen to Triple J's Hottest 100, crack a beer, fire up the BBQ, and be thankful that they live in such a great country.

And for Cella, it's a day to miss the people, and the spirit, of the Sunburnt Country.

Oh Australia.
Land of poisonous spiders and snakes.
Land of giant man-eating crocodiles.
Land of drought.
Land of floods.
Land of beer and snags.
Land of that guy that played Wolverine in the x-men movies.

So, in honor of the great land of Australia, here's a drawing of me riding a kangaroo.



Enjoy.

And have a beer for me.



Also, for anyone in Brisbane this Thursday, a fantastic up and coming Australian band called 'Young Men Dead' is playing at the Alhambra Lounge starting at 9pm.*

Check them out on Triple J's website, and swing by the Alhambra Lounge to see them

*Addresss: 12 McLachlan Street, Fortitude Valley, Brisbane
