No Bart, just violently heavy work levels over the last two years and
probably the next 2. Much driving the Subaru around in the middle of
nowhere trying to get to a GPS point not worth getting to when one
actually reaches it...the music is suffering nearly as badly as the
sailing...Lady Kate's gonna kill me when I next take her out, so much so
that she's going to be slipped soon for a cosmetic cleanup in the hopes
that the punishment will be softened a touch......

Well, I might have done given a bit of time, but after my initial
iconoclastic reaction, I realised that Vegemite is a US company & US
brand after all, so it's only the standard, sad case of the US shooting
its own best interests in the foot, hardly worth even a raised eyebrow.


Despairingly yours,

Don't despair dear Tadpole.

Look at it as the US simply reciprocating, not to be confused with
vacillating.

Vegemite is to Australians as guns are to Americans.

We can't take our guns to your country.

You can't take that viscuous laxative here.

With that arrangement how can anyone be shot in the foot?

Ahem. At the risk of repeating myself, Kraft Foods & Vegemite brand are
entirely US-owned. Is denying a multitude of Australian expatriates in
the US their daily vitamin B & folate fix worth the loss of sales
revenue? Anyway, re the US guns; on my last recent run through Woomera,
there were American guns everywhere!

Obviously you have given much thought to good old crafty American
politiking. The ban is an obvious ploy to create jobs in America. Vast
factories will be set up to supply the phenomenal demand for vegemite here
in the US. Fortunately gun owners subdued the run on grocery stores for
stockpilers of the yeasty smear. For now American vegemite producers will
have to get by on huge subsidies to make up for the loss in income. It's an
election year.

Yesterday - French cheese, today -vegemite, tomorrow -The World!

I take it no American gun has shot you in the foot since you ran through
Woomera.
