Federation Day greetings

[Bapopik at AOL.COM]

   Happy Federation Day in the new millennium!
   My air ticket cannot be changed without a big increase in price, so I
can't have an extra day in Sydney to do research...I'm carrying home some
vegemite.  I better not be stopped at the airport for bringing back "food."
   I toured the Cairns Central Shopping Centre (it has a food court) and have
more food items.
