Down Under
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to navigationJump to search This article is about the geographical colloquialism. For other uses, see Down Under (disambiguation) and Land Down Under.
The term Down Under is a colloquialism which is variously construed to refer to Australia and New Zealand. The term comes from the fact that these countries are in the Southern Hemisphere, “below” almost all other countries, on the usual arrangement of a map or globe which places cardinal north at the top.[1][2]
The term has been in use since the late 19th century[3] and the persistence of the media use of the term has led to its wide acceptance and usage. The Men at Work song “Down Under” became a patriotic rallying song for Australians. The Russian-Australian boxing champion Kostya Tszyu was nicknamed “The Thunder from Down Under”, as is Australian snooker player Neil Robertson. When the then Miss Australia Jennifer Hawkins was crowned as Miss Universe 2004 in Quito, Ecuador, she was called by the same nickname by host Billy Bush.[4]
According to Roger Ebert‘s tongue-in-cheek Glossary of Movie Terms, the Down Under Rule:
No film set in Australia is allowed to use the word Australia in its title where “Down Under” is an acceptable alternative. For example, we don’t get The Rescuers in Australia or Quigley in Australia.
The Tour Down Under is a cycling race in and around Adelaide, South Australia, and since 2009 has been the inaugural event of the UCI World Tour Ranking calendar, which culminates in the Giro di Lombardia.
BUT, NOW THERE ARE “GIGANTIC COMPANIES” PURCHASING THE “LAND(S) DOWN UNDERNEATH” THEIR OWN MASSIVE BUILDINGS AND STRUCTURES!!

WE HAD HOPED “NOT” BUT ITS LOOKING MORE AND MORE LIKE “GIGANTIC COMPANIES” ARE EXACTLY PLANNING FOR IT!!! (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00OEYUNNC/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0)… THE “ADAPTATIONS” OF MANY SPECIES, VIRUSES, BACTERIA S, ECO SYSTEMS ALL HAVE BEEN HAPPENING RIGHT IN OUR PLAIN SIGHTS AND LIVES, BUT “STUPID/ARROGANT/LYING” GLOBAL “SO-CALLED LEADERS” HAVE BEEN DENYING THE “TRUE SCIENCES AND LOGIC S” AS THE EARTH DETERIORATES.

During the decades of the Planet ©Rhythm-ax’s own looming destruction, heading towards Global Warming, perhaps causing the end of the world, as people have known it, Certain evil forces, were content to keep reconstructing lies and deceptions to the citizens, until, within a far away Galaxy; Scout Patrols picked up on the growing dangerous waves of deadly heat and sun rays that would ensure the end of the Planet.
In that Far away Galaxy, on a Planet called ©Cypress, The Scout Patrols named ©Badaliens (pronounced Bad Aliens), had been always commissioned with the duties of Care-keepers’ Scouts. The ©Badaliens observed many, many Galaxies, and patrolled the Far-reaching stars, and skies, to look for any certain Planets that were becoming a destructive presence, within the intergalactic realms of the Universe.
Whenever Such a Looming Legacy of Destructive patterns, made itself known to the Patrols, called ©Badaliens, it was reported back to the ©Cypress Guardian Keepers, who decided which Powerful Force or Forces to send to that Planet, to either “Cleanse the Planet of the Destructive elements, or Destroy that Planet, so that the rest of that Galaxy would not become contaminated, or inhabited by the destructive people or groups of evilness.
REALLY SIMPLE, AND AT THE SAME TIME “SNEAKY BRILLIANT” PLANS THAT MAYBE YOU ALL AR “NOT” PAYING ATTENTION TO??!!
IMAGINE THAT YOU ARE A CORPORATION GIANT THAT OWNS A CASINO OR OTHER MASSIVE STRUCTURE; AND YOU “SELL” THE STRUCTURE TO A “LEASING CORP./INVESTMENT HOLDING COMPANY THAT YOU “CO-OWN”, BUT THEN YOU “LEASE” THE STRUCTURE, BACK TO YOURSELVES AND THE “HOLDING COMPANY” OR “R.E.I.T.” WITHIN A 25–99 YEAR LEASE, BUT THEN YOU ALSO OWN THE “LAND” SEPARATELY FROM THE “STRUCTURE/BUILDINGS” AS THOSE ARE CONSIDERED “improvements” AND ARE NOW “SEPARATE ASSETS” FROM THE “REAL PROPERTY/LAND MASS, STRAIGHT DOWN, TO HADES AND BACK; UNDERNEATH YOUR STRUCTURES!!! SO NOW YOU CAN “BUILD” DOWNWARD AS FAR AS YOU CAN, AND “MAKE MONEY AND PREPARE FOR WHAT IS COMING FAST” WITH THE DESTRUCTION OF THE EARTH’S GROUND LEVELS!!!!!
