A Texan farmer goes to Australia for a vacation. There

he meets an Aussie farmer and gets talking. The Aussie
shows off his big wheat field and the Texan says, "Oh!
We have wheat fields that are at least twice as large."
Then they walk around the ranch a little, and the Aussie
shows off his herd of cattle. The Texan immediately says,
"We have longhorns that are at least twice as large as
your cows." The conversation has, meanwhile, almost
died when the Texan sees a herd of kangaroos hopping
through the field. He asks, "And what are those?" The
Aussie replies with an incredulous look, "Don't you have
any grasshoppers in Texas?"

That is what I thought when I first was getting to the punch line, too.

I guess because Texas will hold most foreign countries, they got the idea that it is ALL big. I found the joke very amusing. I have only seen roos in zoos, but someday.....;)

Isn't this a great joke? Talk about one upmanship! I know we have some mighty big animals downunder, but our Kangaroos sure take the prize here.

By the way, you think our Kangaroos are big you should see some of our spiders, lizards and creepy crawlies etc.

Only joking, Australia is no different to live in than any other country, only hotter and sometimes wetter! We surely are a country of droughts and flooding rains!

Love and blessings Chris
