    Talking Australia V Texas

    A Texan farmer goes to Australia on vacation. There he meets an Aussie farmer and gets to talking. The Aussie shows off his big wheat field and the Texan says, "Oh! We have wheat fields that are at least twice that size!"


    They walk around the ranch a little, and the Aussie shows off his herd of cattle. The Texan immediately replies, "We have longhorns that are at least twice as large as your cows."


    The conversation has died down when the Texan sees a herd of kangaroos hopping through the field. He asks the Aussie, "What are those?"


    The Aussie replies with an incredulous look, "Don't you have any grasshoppers in Texas?"

    It's about 200 miles from where I live. I sometimes drive through there when I drive to Sydney.
