We'd pull in from out of the outback for petrol and a meat pie and a
Bundaberg ginger beer (UNTIL I met Bundaberg Rum'n'Coke in a can!). Meat
pies are great. And what's more fun than eating a meat pie is guessing how
long it's been sitting in the hot oven. --JUST KIDDING--

I ate more than my share of them and I certainly would again.

Once I got a taste of grey kangaroo, well, things have never been the same!
Cooked up first by my boss' Mom in Adelaide. Delicious!!! I'll ever forget
her (RIP) hospitality when we arrived, "Would you boys like a whiskey and a
beer?" We accepted constantly! She treated us two Americans as her own sons
during our stay. The boss reverted back into being the temperamental son.

I haven't seen a sign of my Aussie mates here at r.f.c ever. Rory, a
teammate of mine, who's Powerball lotto I've managed for 10% and the past 8
years was king of finding "the cheapest and best lunch from the food carts
in Philadelphia, PA, on a daily basis, during his employment. We
laughingly marveled at his diligence day after day. Last I've heard, he's
lost somewhere in Melbourne, VIC, messing around with dead birds.

"Bakeries" took me by surprise. I didn't think you'd find meat pies in a
bakery! Learned a lot in Oz, to put it mildly! Road trains also were a
great surprise!!!!!!
