O Hai, I haz Auzi LOLHymn for Straya Day

Palm Beach, Sydney January 2009

Happy Australia Day!

This is the day we celebrate sand in our bathers, vegemite on toast and the correct pronunciation of Australia - STRAYA.

In the celebration of the young, hip nation that we are I present you with something I wrote for fun some time back in another blog - our national anthem in LOLcat (what's this? nb: it's different from sms/texting shorthand).


Auzi Hym

All Auzi cmon hav fun
Coz we yung an we can has wot we want
We can has gud home and can has dollarz if wrk hard
Auzi home does has watr all round
Auzi home does has much gud stuff
We iz lucky
Invisible Histry guru wud sai

Go Auzi Go Auzi
Cmon sing loud
Go Auzi Go Auzi

Under cool starz
We can do hrd wrk and thnk gud thingz
An mak r home
Well known all over
Fur visible guys want come from other landz
We can has sharing wiv u
So be brav an come, an sing

Go Auzi Go Auzi
Cmon sing
Go Auzi Go Auzi

I like the original far better. I think I'm LOL dyslexic. I spend far more time trying to decipher it than it can possible take to type the whole thing out in the Queen's English!

Oh, and Happy Australia Day!

Are non-Aussies allowed to say that? I haven't broken a rule have I?

Bloody Hell, how long did it take to type that out and get it to make sense? You have too much time on your hands, girl!

(insert wicked smilie here)

Oh, you know, some people do Sudoku, some cryptic crosswords... some of us tend towards the geeky.

I like The Impossible Princess's version - she has the first verse word perfect now...but she used to sing, "We've golden soil and wealth for toil, We all live by the beach."

Happy Auzi Day!
