(From a friend in Melbourne, Australia)

A Texan in Australia.....

A Texas farmer went to Australia for a vacation. There he met an Australian farmer and got talking. The Aussie showed off his big wheat field and the Texan said, "Oh! We have wheat fields that are at least twice as large".

Then they walked around the ranch and the Aussie showed off his herd of cattle. The Texan commented, " We have longhorns that are at least twice as large as your cows".

The conversation almost died when the Texan saw a herd of kangaroos hopping through the field. He asked, "And what are those?"

The Aussie replied with an incredulous look, "Don't you have grasshoppers in Texas, mate?"
