Sad news for vegemite lovers

Officially, as of last week, no one on US soil will get to smile and hand that guy a vegemite sandwich.

I disagree. Detroit was outstanding this year. Great starting pitching. Great bullpen. Good defense. That's a winning formula. They're just not playing up to their ability in the WS.

Last night's game was decided by inches. If only Monroe could have caught that ball.

Or if Zumaya could have thrown it.

Strange lady, you make me nervous.

It's not true, according to the FDA

Oh yeah, yeah.

If this year ended in July, you would be right. That's the problem

and granderson falling, but the pitchers are making choke-type errors.

That's always a problem with flamethrowers: they can only be accurate when they're throwing as hard as they can.

I often suffer from the same problem, except that I've got a blazing 72 MPH fastball. Or at least I did when I was 15. I doubt I can break 70 now.

I think the author(s) of those articles hate America. "The price slapped on Vegemite, however, is tough to swallow.

A tiny, four ounce jar of Vegemite sells for around $US4.80 ($6.33) in US supermarkets."

Americans spitefully charge super-duper extra-high prices for Vegemite.

Or, there's little demand, and importing small quantities is expensive. Or, it's only available at schmancy specialty stores.
