Come on. We'll sell dad's beer cap collection and buy a roadside petting zoo. Weasels! Badgers! It'll be great!

Sounds like a duck deal.

Exactly. You in?

Stettler

place. Canadian town about to shake off its slumber and burst into the twentieth century. The party phone lines are being removed and the coal-fired steam train, filmed in many cowboy flicks and one of the few still in use in the civilized world, is on its last runs.

Mom and pop stores, self-taught hairdressers, and migrant labourer shacks will soon be replaced by fancy corporate establishments, and a name-brand eating place is in the planning stages.

First settled by Cree indians, Stettler was overrun in 1845 by Europeans who thought the area would prosper if they ran the place instead. They were wrong for over a century but discovery of major deposits of shale, sandstone, and fist-sized boulders in 1956 saved the town from absolute desolation as there was a niche use of these products in the concrete yard-novelty industry.

Grain farming and repairing asphalt are pursued locally and The Stettler Groundkeeper is purused avidly.

There are no significant sports teams, high schools, or marching bands but a horse rodeo is held quadrennially on the horse rodeoing grounds

They make a lot of cowboy movies near Stettler don't they?

Yep. Don't have to change a thing.

Perth

place. Extremely western Australian city that serves as a gateway to the orient and an export hub for kangaroo leather, emu eggs and small trinkets.

Sports fanatics abound. Professional rounders teams, netball enthusiasts, and the famous Clashing Colours can be found on the pitches most Sundays.

Have they got stores in Perth now?

Too right mate! You can buy any trinket you want. It's like Hobart on a Wednesday eveving!

spit-laugh

n. Similar to a spit-take but not as hilarious to watch as only a loose dribble of spittle leaves the mouth instead of a wild eruption of juice, coffee, vodka etc.
