Interesting You know, your visit could well have coincided with the time frame I was talking about listening to "And the band played..." in music class. I'm not entirely sure why the band played Waltzing Matilda (but that link might have some clues). In 1918 the real Australian anthem was "God save the King", our current one wasn't chosen until 1974, but I think Matilda has always been popular. The link to Gallipoli is interesting too. After the war, Mustafa Kemal, who had been commander of the Turkish forces on the day of the invasion wrote a tribute to the Australian troops quoted at the Australian war memorial's web site, http://www.awm.gov.au/encyclopedia/ataturk.asp
"Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives... You are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side now here in this country of ours... you, the mothers, who sent their sons from faraway countries wipe away your tears; your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace. After having lost their lives on this land. They have become our sons as well."
P.S. I got side tracked and forgot that I meant to send you a link to "I was only 19", another sad Australian ballad about returned soldiers.
In reply to this comment by AdrianBlack:
I've known it was sort of the un-official national anthem for Australia since I was little (I was there when I was 9yrs old), so I guess I've always heard it in an Australian voice.
I also had a music box as a child that had Waltzing Matilda as it's song.
How well known it is to others, I don't know. I always seem to be the one that collects odd little facts.
Lol, nice accent, btw.
Cheerio!
(English) Supercute Pegasus Airlines Safety Announcement
I've also sifted the Turkish version (it's a Turkish airline) because it's even cuter:

Coffee: The Greatest Addiction Ever
The first coffee house opened in Istanbul in 1554 forever changing Turkish culture. So much so, the Turkish word for breakfast, kahvaltı, literally means "before coffee" and the word for brown, kaverengi, literally means "the color of coffee."
Snatch - The Bet
@NordlichReiter, this is as much as I can figure out:
Turkish: Well, Do you want to do it?
Mickey: That depends...
Turkish: On what?
Mickey: On you buying this Caravan. Ach, not the rouge. The rose.
Turkish: It's not the same caravan.
Mickey: It's not the same fight!
Turkish: It's twice the fucking size as the last one!
Mickey: Turkish, the fight is twice the size and me Ma still needs a caravan. I like to look after me ma. It's a fair deal... take it.
Turkish: Mickey, we're lucky we aren't worm food after your last performance. Buying a tart's mobile palace is a little fucking rich. ... I wasn't calling your mom a tart, I just meant...
Mickey: Eh, save your breath for coolin' your porridge. Now look, she wants a [heck?] with two roof lights, the [something] frame furniture, and the scarlet cushions with the matching sideways cover.... Right! And she's terribly partial to the periwinkle blue, b'ys!
TV host shoves meat phalluses into eager mouths
Hmmm, the Turkish people that I know don't have a problem with eating pork.>> ^spawnflagger:
The only way that could get more WTF is if the host told them "you just ate pork!" then the audience started mass vomiting.

This video has taught me that Turkish men are more willing to give head than women... That or men just don't give a shit what they put into their bodies...
Libya Bombing: 'Interventions never end!'
My government decided to stay out of this mess for the time being, but just like the Turkish, they are already on the verge of joining the party. I was suprised -- and baffled, really -- by the enormous amount of pro-intervention articles by the media, both progressive and conservative, and the lack of hard information therein. The most commonly named reason for supporting the intervention was international standing and diplomatical reliability -- and they don't even realize what fucked up reasoning that truly is.
And the political odour of this entire activism by Sarkozy and Cameron, it just smells like the gents at the pub I was last week: both have serious domestic problems, so one can't help but think of Maggie Thatcher's eagerness about the Falkland War. Fukushima certainly didn't help those two either, both are strong proponents of nuclear power.
Laughland mentioned Kosovo. Remember how the war criminal Slobodan Milošević was removed from power by supporting the UÇK? What a merry band of democrats that was, Hashim Thaçi certainly is one hell of a posterchild. Carla Del Ponte, former prosecutor for the ICTY, published some very insightful articles about it over the years, but the ones I have at hand are in German. Despicable shit.
As for the intervention in Libya: Al Jazeera had some informative op-eds about it, eg. "The drawbacks of intervention in Libya" and "Libya intervention threatens the Arab spring". And, as usual, Greenwald: "The manipulative pro-war argument in Libya".
I had five more paragraphs of personal opinion, but I decided to remove that block of biased rambling.
