Australian Trivia Only

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

You're both right, but an emu is still not an animal -- it's a bird.
OED says an "animal" is "A mammal, as opposed to a bird, reptile, fish or insect."

So THERE! Na na na! :D :lol: (Hands on hips, throws head back and laughs insanely.) :shock: :?
