We've had this for quite a while actually. Anyway, commence the Tasmania bashing. I'll start: Lambie Lovers!

Lambie? You mean the senator who said that she would sleep with anyone who had "big" enough genitals?

Yeah, the one who claims to be a Catholic, is from Burnie and my uncle who was Priest there said he never saw her at church, but he met her and he isn't surprised by her.

Hmm... Yeah, we mostly like her for encouraging jobs to stay here and more to be set up here for the local folk, she also has apparently strong opinions against Muslims, at least that's what I heard.

Not particularly, I haven't seen a single Muslim on this island at all, but if she delivers on what the locals here want, then I don't really care that much. It's not like Muslims would be interested down here anyway.

Well my brother and Dad were going to go to it, but now because my Great-uncle died and cyclone Marcia happened, Dad has to stay in Brisbane for work reasons and my brother, mum and I are heading to Dalby to the funeral.

Obviously not. Lambie really does prove the inbred backwards Tasmania tale.

I'll think you'll find the most active members of this thread are Queenslanders in the south east of the state.

It's alright. Does the last name Healy or Heisler ring any bells? That's my relatives over there. My Great-Uncle Wally used to own the Warra Hotel, but now Mum's cousin owns it. My Great-Uncle who died I'm pretty sure he had a son who lived in Toowoomba, Peter. My Great-Uncle was apparently big in the livestock trade out in the Darling Downs.

Huh... Maybe because everyone has very little time in those cities, especially in Melbourne, did you know they have a FREE tram service in the city? I would've ridden that thing all day everyday had I not run out of time.

So what does Brisbane do again as an industry, because Tasmania is more or less a retirement island, the equivalent of Florida in the states (except for the climate of-course).

Brisbane does...stuff. Basically a hub for Tourism and stop off on the way to the Great Barrier Reef. Also we have mining and construction.
