DEAR CROCODILE DUNDEE: This is to let you know that you are 2 phony, a cheat, a fake and a fraud. Also a has-been. You are, admittedly, a good act and there was once a grain of truth in you. But you are no more the Aussie cf today than a possum is a tiger. I know this because my man in Oz sends me lots of clippings from The Australian, which is a hell of a good newspaper. And what do | gather from its pages? That sodomites and lesbians can enter the country as ‘‘couples.’’ Your immigration minister catls this ‘‘a humanitarian gesture.’’ Did you ever hear such nonsense, my dear Dundee? It’s a crock, that’s what it is. So much so that if our paths ever cross, I won’t know whether to shake your hand or kiss you. ‘ Does Australia include that news in its official advertising? You know, ‘Come to Australia Fair, men. And bring your boy friends with you. Down under is the land of opportunity, ha ha.”’ Things may be pretty bad here in Canada, with pansies like Svend Robinson, MP, looking to become the minister of justice, and kids in the schools being taught to be nice to homos, but we haven’t quite gone as far as you have. Perhaps we’ll get around to it. We are always looking for progress, and there’s a general election coming. That’s not all, though, Mr. Dundee. For f also see where your government plans to dedicate a street in Canberra to Nelson Mandela, the commie who has captured so much liberal support and recently celebrated his 70th birthday in the clink, which is where he should be. Sob stories about Mandela and his nasty wife, ‘“Winnie,’” abound in our media. Only the other day the CBC’s The Journal devoted two whole evenings (or perhaps they were hole evenings) to a regurgitation of left-wing pro- paganda on Mandela and his cronies.

Enough to make me throw up, it was, and I have no doubt that the Australian Broadcasting Commis- sion has been up to the same sort of lark. What those people forget, natu- rally, is that “‘Nelson’’ is an unreconstructed terrorist. I; Australia trying to tell me she wouldn’t stem that black tide if she were in the South Africans’ position? Come off it, Dundee. Mandela Street my ass, if you don’t mind my using some language that they would , understand in Walkabout Creek.’’ After a scrupulously fair trial, he was found guilty of planning to blow up half of Johannesburg, and he could be a free man now if he renounced the use of terror, which he refuses to do. : My apologies if you already knew all that, dear Dundee. I had to mention it because your gov- ernment’s stance on South Africa is just about as hypocritical as it Youre Pregnant And Need Support: | GIRTHRIGHT) § Call 987-7313 + Free Pregnancy Test « f B 229 Lonsdale In Vancouver Call # : North Vancouver 687-7223 E could be. It is even worse than that of our own Prime Minister, Brian Baloncy, who is even more skilled : at talking out of both sides of his mouth than is your man Hawke. You have no moral right to go on about the South Africans. In the old days you wiped out a hell! of a lot of aboriginals. Then you pushed what was left into the out- back. I also hear that even today, being an abo around Alice Springs and places like that is no tea party. You employed other means to make damned good and sure that no race problems arose in Oz. Didn't you have a White Australia policy until a few years ago, just as we had a White Canada policy? Both policies made sense. The South Africans, on the other hand, wiped out no one, and have done very little to prevent immigration from the surrounding black states. That they don’t want to hand things over to the Mandelas, how- ever, is understandable. We wouldn’t want to hand Ottawa over to the Indians, either, although some fools pretend we would. Is Australia trying to tell me she wouldn’t try to stem that biack tide if she were in the South Africans’ position? Come off it, Dundee. Mandela Street my ass, if you don’t mind my using some __ language that they would unders- tand in Walkabout Creek. Crocodile Dundee has been described here as The Pride of Oz. And I must say I enjoyed your first effort. But Crocodile Dundee 2 left something to be desired. You weren’t quite your old self, and I think I know why. You knew all the time that pansies were im- migrating and that someone was planning to create a Mandela Street. : Sorry about this, cobber. But someone had to say it.

The mind is capable of much more than it is given credit for. It can help you break out of long standing routines and allow you to take control and improve your life. I have used hypnosis for many years as a tool which helps unlock the mind’s strengths and loosens the grip of old undesirable habits. Com- bined with counselling, it pro- vides a comprehensive ap- proach to problem-solving. In this way I have helped clients quit smoking, lose weight, reduce anxiety, sleep better and overcome a myriad of other problems. Hypnosis allows the sub- conscious to be more accessi- ble and open to suggestion. Often our troubles appear monstrous due to our con-’ scious attitude or perspective. By reducing your anxiety about the problem, and becoming relaxed, problems can be view- ed and approached from a new angle, They become less threatening and more manageable, ~ Counselling aids hypnosis by understanding the actual pro- blem and changing your think- ing and feeling about it. There are often underlying causes for such common problems as overeating and smoking: stress, depression or poor self-esteem, for example. Once these causes are identified and dealt with, the bad habit can be overcome. Hypnosis has been misrepresented for centuries, often wrongly depicted as a trance-like state in which the hypnotist has total control over the other person. However, hypnosis is a natural state of mind where you are able to ac- cept and act upon suggestions more easily. Hypnotherapy allows you to take control by letting you see that you really do have many more options open to you than’ you first thought and it can elp you approach change gladly and freely.
