    Over at Slog, Kelly O. noted that this seems "a sure sign of the Apocalypse". And, you know, while I'm aware that we in the 'States do some pretty stupid things ... a way of life?

    Frankly, from the way my Australian neighbors at Sciforums write of their country, I expect better than runway-model ducks.

    At any rate, international bickering aside, I must agree with Ms. O., inasmuch as this involves dressing up ducks for a fashion show:

    I'd think that perhaps a few Chinese chefs might enjoy viewing the ducks to choose the "just right" bird for their Peking Duck dinner!

    tiassa to be fair as far as i know all the australian members here are from the city rather than the country

    If you get out into the country (epecially country queensland) things get REALLY wierd

    Well, there you go, then.

    'Sides, an opportunity arose to razz my Aussie neighbors, so I took it. Seriously, the bizarre things we have going on in our rural areas make urban and cosmopolitan perversity look like kiddie games. I'm sure we'll find some of them as more Signs of the Apocalypse emerge.

    'Course, this was in Sydney. Now, I admit my Australian geography is piss-poor, but I didn't realize you built big opera houses out in rural backwaters. That's really cool.
