A Flag For Oz!

Hey Myths!

Once upon a time, some Pompeii Bastard, planted the Southern Cross in
Oz. It still is, but it Ann�s the Aussie.  Ozzieman has grown up now.
Ozzieman is coming into his prime now. Aussieman needs a flag that he
can call his own now.

A flag of one�s own, is an instrument of social cohesion. It would
bring the prawn snappers of Calpernia in with the boarders of
Adelaide�s snowy mountains. It would bring the poofters from Canberra
in with the separatists of  WA.

Ozzieman�s cousins, the Canucks tore down the Pommie Bastard�s Union
Jack thirty years ago now.  They held a national competition. Anyone
from primary, secondary or Uni could enter a design. There were more
than 100,000 suggestions.

The time has come, a flag for Oz. It is time that the Pommie Bastard�s
standard went off to the museum.  She�ll be right Mytes, when the
colors are your own.
