Australia is so dry

Today will be the last in my series of cartoons about Australia.  That is unless I think of something else inspiring before Wednesday.  If you look up the driest countries in the world, Australia doesn’t even pop up anywhere in the top.  But when you talk continents, Australia is the […]

Australian Hotel Bill Extra Charges

  Today is just a small example of some of the funny hotel charges we incurred while in Australia. First, I find whether in the States or in Australia, if a hotel charges you for internet access, it will suck.  I almost always have that issue when staying at an […]

SFTH: Aussie Undies

Thought I would start a new periodic feature to supplement the traditional Bearman Cartoons.  SFTH or Straight From the Headlines will have me perusing local newspapers from around the globe and posting that which I find interesting or humorous. Given that I am more popular in Australia than America, my […]
