   Why couldn't they have called him Paul? (which was his real name) Then he   
   could have replied with, "G'day scumbag, what's the go?", which would be far   
   more fitting with the man and the Aussie vernacular. Instead they say stupid   
   things to wind Aussies up    
   that people NEVER say like, "What's the good word, mates?"   
   Grrrr! Or maybe that's the point...
