The CBS Early Corroboree

Next monday is a red letter day for Australians in New York. Tourism Australia’s Region General Manager (our equivalent to Murray from Flight of the Conchords) will be on CBS’ Early Show, on the air promoting all things Australian. So there has been a call out for fellow Aussies to join in the crowd for the weather updates, and according to the email1311 “Signs are Encouraged”. So  here are a few that  I think would be nice to bring along. Suggestions welcome.

    Go with the 21 hour flight from cute animals that can kill you.

    uranium one as 2nd choice
    universal health care as 3rd

  2. James says:

    I would go with the Mel Gibson one followed by the Visa one. I think the rest don’t translate as well.

  3. Matthew Jenkin says:

    Dan I wish you were an octopus so you could hold all of these up! Brilliant!

  4. indigo says:

    I’m not proud of myself for laughing, but I like the backpacker one. Universal health care in less in bad taste and more relevant though.

    I’d go for Mel Gibson, closely followed by the health care one. Go, Beast!

  10. Kirby.py says:

    I really like the backpacker one and the 21 hour flight one.

  20. Mystik Tomato says:

    They’re all great, but go for Mel Gibson or animals, I reckon.

  21. Clabwag says:

    I’ve got to say the Mel Gibson one will probably hit the Early Show viewers a little harder than any of the others, and it’s very funny.

  22. RO says:

    Mel Gibson followed by the uranium one gets my vote.
