NYC Food Guy is reporting that Tuck Shop is opening up a 2nd location at 115 St. Mark’s Place (near Crif Dogs). The new location is bigger, will serve Australian coffee, Milo (!!!), and of course all of your favorite Australian treats like Tim Tams and meat pies (and much more).

The new location will open this Wednesday, June 24, 2009. Yay!

This is a great and scary short film from Blue Tongue Films. It’s loosely based off of the saying “It’s all fun and games until someone loses an eye”. A great lesson can be learned from the end. I won’t spoil the ending, so just watch it.

No Asians for this Australian man

HAHA!!! Watch this video to see how one man’s thick Australian accent can cause quite a funny accidental mix-up in the newspaper and on local TV. [via]

Steve Irwin gets bitten by a python

Here’s the legendary Steve Irwin back in 1991 on an Australian kids TV show doing a demonstration with a small python. As you will hear, Steve Irwin says that the snake won’t bite him and then a few seconds later the snake proceeds to bite his neck! But being Steve Irwin, he plays it cool and is alright in the end.

Look closely at the dog hand puppet as he/she slowly backs away. [via]

Those Australians are so crazy…

I love how this AP news video included the mating call once again right at the very end. In case you missed it.

Haemin asked me if there were still Tim Tam cookies left at Target, and the answer is YES!

This picture was taken last night at Target as I went with Flo to grab more chocolate biscuits! Yum diddly yum yum yum!

Oh, and they are all on sale too!
