Or perhaps Australian beef is Austrian beef in disguise and they’ve been tricking the Japanese market all these years….

Typos happen a lot. Especially online. I’m guilty of about a million myself. But for a major newspaper in an article all about Australia - that is one sloppy typo.

No cigar for you today Mainichi Shimbun.

• Do you know that Austria is so miffed by Japanese confusing their country with Australia that they are changing the katakana from オーストリア　to オーストリー

  Maybe that will help.

• What, I say, what does does 14365.72 refer to? Will there be a test later? Are you sending coded messages to your home planet (presumably filled with a bevy of cool Australian chicks)?

  I await, with bated breath, the next increment in your series of #‘s.
