It was also the only place where the people, older ones especially, would be appreciative of Yanks in uniform.

So you're saying that you're into Denise Drysdale?

That guy was a serious chance to win the British Open one year?

But isn't that typical of golf? Guys score that one major win, and that's it. Todd Hamilton and Trevor Immelman are two off the top of my head.

At least Campbell got to bask in all the glory from his home country. A year later, Australian Geoff Ogilvy won the US Open. But the last day of that tournament was held on the same day of the Australia/Japan first round World Cup game. Australia won, our first ever in the World Cup. Tim Cahill become a sporting legend. The country went nuts. Despite ending a drought for Australians in golf majors. No one cared about Geoff's US Open win.

Yes. I saw that thanks loosegoose. If only - but I think it unlikely.

Does one follow from the other?
You might not have heard of Campbell again, but does that hold more generally?

Only sometimes.

If New Zealand were any good there would be a :What if you lived in New Zealand thread? When most New Zealnders reach adulthood they can't wait to leave home and become Australian citizens!

effCup must've really pinched your nerves to take a crap on his country.

I enjoyed the show Go Girls. It gave us Anna Hutchinson

There was a reason I asked that,
I didn't see this, wasn't there. Had a Mate innocently get involved in a Pub fight years ago when 2 New Zealanders, both drunk, one White and one Maori and each one from the opposing Island, Glasses thrown etc...

No. I made this comment just to see what reaction it would provoke in effCup.

That's called trolling. It's widely thought to be very poor netiquette.

Nothing of the sort effCup. I was hoping you would respond with some of the best things that living in New Zealand would have to offer. Such as its splendid mountains, it's trails, it's cities, it's cultural attractions etc. Come on, inquiring minds want to know? What is New Zealand like?
