    オズのアホ使い

     考えRooの母国であるオーストラリアでは、国名を省略して「オズ」と呼ぶことがある。  偶然に、考えるRooの生き方は馬鹿な言動が中心となっていた。  つきましては、「オズのアホ使い」と呼ばれても全然問題ないと思う。  具体的なことを言えないが、分かる人は分かる。いくらでも成功する機会が与えられ、裕福になれてもおかしくない過去があった。  しかし、貧乏で終わって、キャリアも何もならなかったというかキャリア事態はなかったというほど達成感がない。しょうがない。  それはそれでも変えられない。このもんだ。それでも十分。というか、これで満足しています。「オズのアホ使い」らしい生き方をして、最後までもそうだろう。  結局、考えRooはもう少し考えるべきだったかもしれない。 Related posts: モー、、十分か?牛関係のBig Thingsでもオーストラリアに盛ん 砂漠のド真中にあるビール大好きなクジラ 豪キャブラリー: Strine Aussies Exposed to Radiation in Japan – 65 Years Ago Powered by YARPP.

    What To Do?

    When Kangaeroo started back in 2010, the aim was probably to help students understand that American was not the only form of English and that Australians speak Strine. What the aim intended to accomplish remains unknown. At some point, the blog became an area to examine lesser-known aspects of the Japan-Australia relationship. For the first five years of its existence, Kangaeroo.com was updated almost daily. It’s initial aim was not accomplished because I couldn’t get enough people to read it. Same goes for its subsequent purpose, I guess. That probably goes some way to explaining why updates have been sporadic…

    Self-Portraits

    Kangaeroo was once an almost ubiquitous presence on the Internet. That was, of course, back in the days before the likes of Facebook, Twitter and other social media dominated online viewing. Even blogs were in their infancy and Google still provided results for terms that people searched for and not for the highest payers. But that all changed. Decades have passed since Kangaeroo posted a portrait online. But that has changed with this post. These are photos of Kangaeroo now. Definitely wasn’t worth waiting for! Not that I think anybody actually waited…. Related posts: Strine Dictionary Classy Crows Dispel Myth…
