    I knew it was an April Fool's day joke because I read your post in its entirety before clicking on that link. It ruined the fun. Thanks.

    Not really, but boy would a tool like that lead to some interesting misuse.

    You should put "MacTard" in your application form - you'll be denied entry and do the rest of Australia a favour. Think about it - the whole nation will owe you a favour.

    You're probably right.

    You could get a job in immigration and ease the application for even more Mactards.

    Australian: You call that a knife? _This_ is a knife.

    Australian: All right, all right, you win, heh. I see you've played Knifey-Spooney before.
