The tree in the background. When I first glanced at the cop I wondered what kind of weird fly veil he had on top of his hat.

“BULLDOG ANTS”
Up to 4 cm. in length, Australia's Bulldog Ants are the biggest ants in the world and can be found in any part of Australia. They killed a farmer in Victoria in 1988 but this is one of only three deaths by this species.

Weeties was a a popular breakfast cereal in the 1940s and 1950s. For many years the cereal boxes contained toys, collector cards or vouchers that could be saved up and redeemed for toys.
Children who ate Weeties could sign up to join the Willie Weeties Club in Carnamah -a town and farming community 300 kilometres north of Perth where one would received a birthday message from the club in an envelope in 1953.
Willie was a dressed grain of wheat with a crown on his head.452516572_10160311684793553_3589737984488687610_n.jpg.b7e3be701f32ec9eed06f040e006d24a.jpg

I was going to pick on your spelling, but you provided photo evidence!

 

Up here where we do not need velcro on our shoes, we have:

 

000032017-1

 

The boxes have had many cameos over the years, picked this vintage box based on current events.

At least we don't name our cereal characters after body parts. Willie - damn, people.

Our Inuit people do something very similar when travelling.

I got used to it, after seeing some of the other uses made of the pail, but it took a while!

I was on a company fishing trip to Canada years back.  The guide in our boat used the can to relieve himself.  Rinsed it, but I skipped the coffee on lunch break.

3 points. Probably only 2 as while I do use "rack off," it is in reference to what the gun local range officers do with a rental gun my lady likes.

 

Probably means something else in the land of velcro shoes.
