As many of you know, I work quite a bit in Australia. I have many very fine Aussie friends who have been, for a while trying to teach me to speak Aussie.

There is a difference you know, they really don't speak English, well not at least when they are speaking to each other. So I thought I'd bring you folks along with an Aussie word or phrase of the day, accompanied by an American definition.

(A) 1. Angle of Dangle, 2. ankle biter, 3. apples.

1. It is well known in Australia that the "angle of dangle" is directly proportional to the seriousness of an erection. If the condition is less than successful, it may be termed as "half an angle".

Alternatives also used to describe this condition are...
bar, brute, fat, horn, larrikins hat, mongrel, morning glory, Sarah Vaughn, or a woodie.

2. Ankle biter, small children, as in "the misses put the ankle biters to bed".

3. apples, every thing fine and in good order, as in "She's apples".

Tomorrows word (B), Barrack, Bar, and Blue.
