You know you've made it when...

News of you buying a rugby league team on the OTHERSIDE of the world made it to a radio program in Dallas Texas USA. And it is not just any radio station, it is a country music station!!

So here I was, driving back from work today listening to the radio, and lo-and-behold, the host said, in the same breath of announcing some country music star's upcoming concert, that Russell Crowe will be joining the fraternity of celebrities who own sporting team when he may possibly purchase the South Sydney Rabbitohs.

Before you get too impressed by good 'o Rusty's stardom, the host then added "Ok, Rabbitohs... what is that? I don't even know what that is... (laugh)"

Well it's a very valid question. It is difficult for anyone who hasn't watched the team play to connect a not-so-manly name to a very manly sporting team hey! Ok, so the rabbit is agile, fast, very likeable, etc. But as a mascot... hmmm... Easter suddenly came to mind. I guess no one else has thought of it - rabbit being ferocious...

Oh and those of you with the question of: Hey what in the world happened to her? Since when did she started listening to country music?!?!

Well, lemme tell y'all, it's cool to listen to country music while in Texas. Afterall, it IS the Lone Star State. There's nothing like driving along a 6-lane interstate overtaking the other cars (all speeding I must add) with the good 'o fiddle and guitar blasting out from the back speakers!

Yeeeeee-hah *even better if you, in fact, have half a drumstick of popeye chicken hanging out your mouth as well*
