The pride is still there and getting stronger I would say Heretic. Sure there will always be idiots but don’t let the actions of a few tinge what will be a glorious celebration.

90 years since Australia 'came of age'

What will you be doing on Anzac day? Myself I will miss the dawn service because of work (nightshift) but will hopefully get to the big footy match with my brother in Sydney and will be able to pay my respects at the game.

Which reminds me of a question Aelia Jusa asked a couple of years ago.

Do you wish someone a happy Anzac day? [img]graemlins/1ponder.gif[/img]

There will always be a few fools around the place. They should be treated as fools. [img]smile.gif[/img]

You get them everywhere, some people, i refuse to say youths, as there is no proof, altough sadly it was probably the young, have graffitied a war memorial over here in my town, and some French youths and some men desecrated the graves of British, and possibily commonwealth soldiers, in France. Think it was a WW1 one though.

History learns us that we don't learn from our history.

What he means is that the human race has never really learnt from its past mistakes. This can be seen through out history.

Eagle eye 04-25-2005 03:36 AM

Yes. That was a bit simpler.

Mr. Mopery 04-25-2005 04:15 AM

Mmm...Anzacs are damned tasty. Aussies and Kiwis ought to be proud of them.
