Binxx Posted September 3, 2004 Posted September 3, 2004 Hear Hear, CM Yeh I can put up with people having a right to express their views BUT there is one thing I cannot accept is people BURNING the Australian flag that should be a jail term cheers laurie They can burn the top left quadrant of the flag for all I care, better not touch the rest
Timmy Downawell Posted September 3, 2004 Posted September 3, 2004 People who burn flags only do so to raise the ire of the few hardliners who actually get upset about that kind of thing. If you chilled a little, they probably wouldn't be so inclined to do it. They're totally baiting people like you, Laurie. Take a chill pill.

If everyone just ignored their antics as you say timmy they probably would feel a bit like fools! as binxx said burn the ensign off the flag! - get it off there. come on guys back to the monarchy republic debate. Do you know we're more crazy about the queen than people in the UK. I deal often with people over there. The last queens birth day holiday the guys from the UK had a good laugh. When we had to cancel a meeting due to queens birthday they said - but we don't celebrate her birhtday over here in the UK?, What the whole country takes a day off for her birthday? - I had to explain different states had different days off for a birthday - they found that even more hilarious!. They asked - you sure you guys all following the same queen? I think its a joke we get a public holiday for queens birthday but Anzac day which I think is probably a bit more sacred to many of us is not even a national public holiday - don't think that would happen in the US, theyre a bit more patriotic over there.

Tweet Posted September 4, 2004 Posted September 4, 2004 It almost looks like the big bluey-green flag with the big yellow banana on it like I proposed. C.M The colours are nice (for leading a pack of monkeys.)
Santa1503559644 Posted September 4, 2004 Posted September 4, 2004 From that site... "From this image we get the OzFLAG chant --"SKY, SEA -- BEACH, BUSH" Since the cross is always in the south, the south stand starts the chant - "SKY, SEA" in tenor. The north stand responds in bass - "BEACH,BUSH" . This chant echoes back and forth across the stadium three times. Then all together, "AUSTRALIA". Pity this forum doesn't have a puking emoticon! How about this chant: "Shyte, SHYTE" "Bullshit, BULLSHIT!" this chant is drowned out by laughter three times, then "Gullible come hither - have we got overpriced kitsch for YOU!!!"
Timmy Downawell Posted September 4, 2004 Posted September 4, 2004 How about these ones? They're my designs.
Santa1503559644 Posted September 4, 2004 Posted September 4, 2004 How about these ones?They're my designs. I love the kiwifruit one!!! (NB: Whats the third island, not Stewart?) Now you need a chant (not haka) like the lame one proposed by the banana republic con-artists ... perhaps ... "Up down" "Up down" "Nuoo Zeelund!" (or, maybe just "Baa baa blacksheep....")
Timmy Downawell Posted September 4, 2004 Posted September 4, 2004 (NB: Whats the third island, not Stewart?) Yeah, not including Stewart Island would be like drawng a map of Australia and leaving off Tasmania, i.e. most people wouldn't care, but the ones that do tend to be very vocal. (or, maybe just "Baa baa blacksheep....") AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA... I think my sides shall surely split!
John_Barber Posted September 4, 2004 Posted September 4, 2004 Any comments on the "new" flag???http://www.flagoz.info/index.htm This guy was handing out info in Subi this morning... Doesn't have the baggage of some other designs, but it is still a shocker! Cheers JB

Digicruiser Posted September 5, 2004 Posted September 5, 2004 I think it's about time we had a real classy looking flag, still with the "original owners" artwork in it. This is a flag we will have for a very long time and must surpass the "novelty factor" of the many suggested ones at the moment.
Tweet Posted September 5, 2004 Posted September 5, 2004 .....How about a few Norman Lindsay pics, that'll grab the attention. C.M
laurie Posted September 5, 2004 Posted September 5, 2004 I reckon our flag should have on it: Football,Meat Pies,Kangaroos, and Holden cars....well I think the song went that way cheers laurie

Groover ! Posted September 5, 2004 Author Posted September 5, 2004 No surprise in the polling so far except................. GO SANTA. Now do you really think you would have been so popular if you kept your last nick name ? God only knows........ :ph34r:
Tweet Posted September 5, 2004 Posted September 5, 2004 Why not a big flag with a thumbs up " No Worries " on it. C.M
