RE:So Aussies are feeling the Heat now ........

Aus culture
1.And of course you can't forget Ian Healy's legendary comment which
was
picked up by the Channel 9 microphones when Arjuna Ranatunga called for
a runner on a particularly hot night during a one dayer in Sydney...
"You don't get a runner for being an overweight, unfit, fat c**t!!!"

2.Yet another Australian witticism with this time Sri Lankan
batsman Arjuna Ranatunga the victim. Shane Warne, trying to tempt the
batsman out of his crease mused what it took to get the plump character
to get out of his crease and drive. Wicketkeeper Ian Healy piped up,
"Put a Mars Bar on a good length. That should do it."
