Kyle: Whoa, maybe you can kiss her.
Cartman: Or slip a little tongue.
Kenny: [mumbles] Or slide a finger up her pussy.
Kyle: I didn't know she had a cat.

Stan: It ain't bad. You should try reading it some time.
Kyle: Dude, that was "Star Trek" again! "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few"—that was Wrath of Khan!

Kyle's Dad: You see, Kyle, we live in a liberal, democratic society. And democrats make sexual harrassment laws. These laws tell us what we can and can't say in the workplace, and what we can and can't do in the workplace.
Kyle: Isn't that fascism?
Kyle's Dad: No, because we don't call it fascism. Do you understand?
Kyle: Do you?

Mr. Garrison: Does anyone know what sexual harassment means?
Cartman: When you are tying to have intercourse with a special lady friend and some other guy comes up and tickles your balls from behind.

the mayor?

the other day when i mentioned my failed chiropractor experience, it was because they were 'all show and no flow' , i knew i wouldnt be able to get a simple adjustment when i walked in, they had like three secretaries, different therapy rooms, an onsite xray, all that jazz, and after a crazy examination (and some lady enthusiastically giving me pamphlets, and clearly showing me what is on each page) with all sorts of instruments and stretching, - i understand that is good practice for a newclient, but i did tell them i have been going for fifteen years, so i don't really need to be 'sold' on the idea, dr. cox also wasn't satisified that i had only had xrays two years ago, he wanted to do some onsite, so i b99shitted that first i need to get a gp's referal so my insurance would cover it,(which is actually true) thus waivering his 50 dollar consultation untill i get the referal, and i made a mock appoinment which they keep calling me about, and trying to refer good doctors,

anyway i needed a few cracks pretty bad, so out of the phonebook i made another appoinment with dr. brown, his office was even further away than the cox's and not on a bus route!! - i finished watching 'the worlds fastest indian' -my new favourite movie of all time, telling the true story of a kiwi (anthony hopkins) making a lifetime in the waiting journey to america- it paralled my experience to a tee, of course he is an old man and rides motorcycles- but i digress

i hopped on my bike, and was hoping to have a similar heartfelt and exotic journey like hopkins, and it was, in a way, and i definately didn't want any B.S., i just wanted my back cracked! no xrays and no pamphlets, and i had a feeling this guy would be the guy for the job, because when i rang up for directions, it was him who answered the phone, not some secretary

i had to ride up a mountain, and on the way up help push a car about a hundred yards up the steep slope, then avoid all sorts of trecharous roadwork which forced me into the middle of the car lane, as it wound up the mountain,

in the office, dr. brown, a man in his early sixties, himself gave me a very simple one page form to fill out, unlike the three pages of lifetime history i had to fill out for cox. and going into his room, i definately knew this guy would just crack my back no fuss. The room had no charts on the wall and was bare except for a bench and a stool, (its the first chiro ive been to that just had a bench not a moveable contraption thing), this guy was fairdinkum, i could tell ,after he told me his son went to ireland on exchange and was enjoying drinking the guiness, and how he heard chech rebulic beer is awesome,

he barely examined my back before getting me to lie on the bench, and give me some good cracks, no fuss, on the way out he gave me a business card and said something about being mayor of charlottesville, i said 'how long ago?' and he said. 'oh i'm the mayor now, i thought youd get a kick out of that card.'
-so the freaking mayor runs a backdoor chiro operation!
-i gave him a handfull of cash, and he went back to running the city!
and on the way back my hopkins experience was complete when a severe thunderstorm beat the shit out of me on the epic ride home.
-im sure micael and craig will get a chuckle when they hear that im hanging out with the mayor.


-COlORADO- there must be somethign in the water there, another shooting, and near columbine, i thought colorado was beautiful. we had a student shot a bit over a week ago, in the stomach, i think he survived, but on the same night a girl died from a mysterious strain of menigicocal, i didnt even hear of the shooting till wel after it happened, and im not even shocked , i guess you develop complacency when its a regular occurance, and not news worthy if its in a private place, the dude was sitting on his porch on offgrounds housing, but if its public at a school or something then youll hear about

Quotes from when homer becomes a chiropractor episode! -

Homer: Less yackin,' more crackin.'
Dr. Steve: We don't actually crack backs. It's merely an adjustment...OK, you're going to hear a loud cracking sound.
Homer: Hey, it feels a little better.
Dr. Steve: I thought it might. Now I need to see you three times a week for many years.

###

MD: Your spine is more twisted than Sinbad's take on marriage.
Homer: So, just give me some drugs and surgery.
MD: I'd love to, but to be honest, modern medicine has a lousy record of treating the back. We spend too much time on the front.
Homer: Yeah, there's some neat stuff on the front.
MD: I'm going to send you to my chiropractor.
Homer: Hey, I thought real doctors hated chiropractors.
MD: Well, that's our official stance, but between you and me and my golf clubs, they're miracle workers.

***

Patient: You think you can fix my sciatica?
Homer: I don't know what that is, so I'm going to say "yes."

###

Homer: One, two, better not sue.
Patient: Hey it worked! My searing leg pain is now a gentle numbness.

50th post!!!

This is my 50th post! i wanted to do something big with a bang! but maybe the next one, because this is technically my 49th- my moderator Tim snuck a post in last week-
i think it is a fair achievement seeing as though the lifespan of a regular blog is about a month or two, or between 6posts to about 20 and that's pushing it,

i don't know this for a fact but pure observation, particularly my three friends blogs who are on my links pages, tim, lachlan and simmo. simmo i thought he had many more rants in him than about four posts, and lachlan well i hope he is continuing to write! and tim who knows what that kid is doing, but the novelty has obviously worn off, the honeymoon over seeing ones own words on the 'net' and people actually reading them probably lasts about a month, i know i felt the 'month' pang and the only reason why i keep doing this is because it's primarily a travel blog, so by definition when travelling there will always be something new to talk about, it is a good record of my trip and an open interactive diary that sure beats writing a real one every couple of days.

sobriety. it has also been a week since i have had my last drink, i have been in bars several times and have opted for cordial, i think im actually sticking to this one! i feel really good, i have been going to the smoothie king and getting malts loaded with 'enhancers'!!! like vitamins and immune boosters and all that stuff,

today i had a failed trip to the chiropractor so i think i'll write about the trip back to my dorm
i found myself in downtown today, the side of the city that is for businesses who have had previous glories, and people who haven't quite succeced in fulfilling their dreams, this is the side of downtown that isn't the celebrated 'historic' revival, with the cafe's and the pubs and the hustle of urban gentrification, this is the other side of the tracks that we like not to think of. The wind of fall was blowing crisp in the air, and i could smell the freshness of the changing of the seasons. My internal compass was pointing in every direction that wasn't home, and my lack of familiarity was beggining to upset me with the compound effect of an empty stomach.

A dubious lucky seven hotdog and crazed mexican standing out the front of the store later, i still walked the streets looking for the CTS trolley stop, this was my lift back to the world of college and comfort. I noticed an oddly shaped plump man running after a bus that had idled past him, and purposely slowed down then continued. I did not want a bus to another part of town that i didn't recognise, i wanted the trolley, the only way i knew back. and i wandered what that bus driver know about this tattooed plump man that i didn't?. He was not at all affable, and after a short one sided discourse , without so much his words, but the location of his bulbous body proving the beacon for the CTS stop.

There was a man, he was black and had a light grey beard, he too had the proportions of someone who had eaten a calorie rich diet, from the age of his clothes and the must oozing from his skin i knew he was poor, but he smiled. His legs were bent just as his eyes, and the smile he bore was lacking some teeth. When he spoke i could understand him, with some difficulty i could understand him. And the empathy he was directing at the tattooed plump man, who had now walked on, was directed at me. He was a nice man

The cars rushed by, they had someplace better to be, and i stood next to the friendly old black man, him wearing clothes from a generation he still thought existed, untill finally the image of the pretend tram become apparent amongst the myriad of armoured black chevrolet and cadalac SUV's, suburban battleships and pedestrians the enemy. Boarding i didn't recognize the sound, it was silence, there was no caucophony of both eager and bored students, there was only the grind of the old engine and a stale smell that is only found at pubs on a sunday morning.

The two solemn passengers sitting on the backrow, were wearing clothes more befite to the location and in fact the times, they were 'street', one black and one white. The friendly old black man followed me on and sat at the front of the small trolley, yet still called back to the street youths who were avoiding eye contact on the back seat. I was the silent mediator in the middle, yet there was no disagreement to mediate. For the both the youths on the backseat and the old man where exchanging a weird set of pleasantries, a true street man conversing with the pretend, only humorously exagerated by the fact that they were yelling the length of the empty trolley.

Several stops passed and the old man uprighted his rigid body and pulled the stop cord, and walking down the step and back onto the streets ,he said hello in his special way to the new travellor boarding who also appeared young and 'street', the old black man with his bent knees was being friendly and had bubbled from the previous exchange and blown it in the face of the newcomer, the exchange was short, and for this i was thankfull, because the new young black travellor with a pair of white painties, which pass for street clothes, on his head, took offense in misinterpreting the old mans well wishes. I smiled when i saw that the old man hadn't noticed the offending and punishing looks of the youth, instead he had continued up the street, walking to his destination, and saying hello to all those who walked by him.


Quotes
'do you believe in something beautiful? then get up and be it.' - ted leo

Sunshine?

i havent been outside for awhile, my lack of rations might draw me out tommorow, i have nearly run out of the only thing i eat which is rice pasta, i still have enough for one more serving but my cheese ran out on friday and my pasta today, so the last meal i had was basically pasta and a spoonfull of pasta sauce, if i make it to walmart i might buy a frypan so that i can cook more than god dam rice pasta!! i have about three or four servings of rice pasta a day

i feel like i'm on survivor, but it's ok kimbo sent word that when shes comes at the end of october she will bring some rissoles, mmm october, i think ill venture down to wild wings tomorrow to have some nacho's and watch the patriots, and pick up some more pasta sauce and fresh cheese, i did buy some cheese not to long ago but i forgot to put it in the fridge, its still in a bag at the end of my bed next to the pile of plastic bowels that i eat pasta from,

i did go play some pool last night, but i called it a night early, my friend had a frat party but i even turned that down! the reason being my self imposed rehab, i wasn't drinking a whole heap at one time or getting too maggot, its just i wasn't having any alcohol free days, so i have become a hermit and i havent drunk anything since tuesday,

my friend in the fraternity is being hazed!! and it lasts till december, so he has to be their shit kicker, like setup kegs and get drinks and all that crap, he asked me why i didnt join,, i leave in decemeber - so initiation would finally be over and i would leave the next day!

, i checked out whats going on in maitland today on google earth - for those of you who don't know what that is, it's an awesome program that you download for free and can view satelite images of the whole world, i was checking out raworth and house lagoon, it even has collongolook. some areas have better coverage than others, like hinton and newcastle you can actually see people on the ground, but the resolution isnt as good above maitland.

liz if you visit kimbo in time, you might be able to check out charlottesville and the leaves! apparently we have the best fall in the country, people visit from far away to see out leaves! there are a whole heap of trees here, and all their leaves turn pretty colours and fall to the ground, lots of pretty leaves then it'll be a white christmas!!!!

and the cavaliers!!! i have become despondent i think i will start following the chess team, the yellow jackets kicked our ass!! on national tv, we had a brand new freshman QB throw his first ball ever in a game, he did ok, and at least in the second half it was 7-7, and i think i really could try out for punter, the dude was lowballing them all over the park,

Sadly i will be gone before basketball gets into full swing around the end of november or decemeber i think, at least they will kick ass on national tv, at least they better because we have the best basketball stadium in the land in the john paul jones arena. Dave mathews band played there last night, and a couple of weeks ago kenny chesney, i had no idea it was going on, and the arena is about 100 yards from my dorm, and as im riding my bike along i see hundreds of cowgirls!!! wearing daisydukes and big boots heading to the concert, kenny chesney fans are hot!


Old School Quotes:

will ferrel is Frank the TANK!!!!!

Frank: I'll be in the neighborhood later on, and I was wondering if maybe you wanted to get some frozen yogurt, or perhaps a whole meal of food, if that would be agreeable. Damnit.

***
Frank: Anything? Well, uh I guess I, deep down, am feeling a little confused. I mean, suddenly, you get married, and you're supposed to be this entirely different guy. I don't feel different. I mean, take yesterday for example. We were out at the Olive Garden for dinner, which was lovely. And uh, I happen to look over at a certain point during the meal and see a waitress taking an order, and I found myself wondering what color her underpants might be. Her panties. Uh, odds are they are probably basic white, cotton, underpants. But I sort of think well maybe they're silk panties, maybe it's a thong. Maybe it's something really cool that I don't even know about. You know, and uh, and I started feeling... what? what I thought we were in the trust tree in the nest, were we not?

***

Frank: I told my wife I wouldn't drink tonight. Besides, I got a big day tomorrow. You guys have a great time.
College Student: A big day? Doing what?
Frank: Well, um, actually a pretty nice little Saturday, we're going to go to Home Depot. Yeah, buy some wallpaper, maybe get some flooring, stuff like that. Maybe Bed, Bath, & Beyond, I don't know, I don't know if we'll have enough time.

***

Frank: 'it's ok i just opened a fresh beer.'

Jerry: What will you have to do with the university?
Beanie: Legally speaking there will be a loose affiliation. But, we will give nothing back to the academic community. As well as provide no public service of any kind. This much I promise you.

Thursdat night FOOTBALL!

ok, tommorrow night Virginia is playing Georgia Tech on ESPN, so its 7.30 pm thursday in the USA and 9.30 am on friday in australia

there is only one thursday night game each week , so its a once in a couple of years thing to have your team playing on such a national spotlight. And on espn not espn2 or some other subsiduary network.

so if you can you should catch the game live on ESPN friday morning in oz, it will be your only chance to see the cavaliers get their ass whooped!

my awesome pad

i noticed kimbo has just posted some pictures of her quarters, so i thought id do the same and you can see where i live , my spacious prison cell

-if the video clips are stuffing up, perhaps think about investing in broadband,






this is my ceiling, you can notice the a/c vent , that is where i get my fresh air











this is my work station where i write my thesis, you can notice my two inspirations on the wall
-ashlee simpson and fight club











this is my bed, on mtv's 'cribs' when the celebities get to the bedroom they say 'this is the office' or 'this is where the magic happens', when cribs comes to my dorm i think ill say 'this is where the dissapointment happens'







this is the outside of my philosophy notebook










this is my philosophy book, this is the work i did in todays lecture,

Homer: Marge, there's an empty spot I've always had inside me. I tried to fill it with family, religion, community service, but those were dead ends! I think this chair is the answer.

stoopid broncos

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/recap?gameId=262590258&confId=null that is the link for our latest game, i was thinking about not even posting it, we were supposed to win, thats why it was our homecoming game, i think i will have to join the team if we are going to have any chance of beating virginia tech. our offense is non existent, maybe and im saying just maybe it might have something to do with the fact that our quaterback is a drama major!! 'to be or not to be,' just throw the god dam ball and get some touchdowns.

australian night this thursday night im having an aussie night, there should be a good turn out, i will try to find some meat pies for the occasion, and some sausage rolls, which i i probably wont be able to find, at least i can get a case of fosters, and everyone can learn how to speak australian,
for instance everytime i ask for a serviette everyone thinks im asking about the soviats, and when i ask for a mountain dew, people think im talking about the dews living in the mountains, and my favorite: thongs, i had no idea that they were only called 'flip flops' here, the other night i asked a girl why she was wearing thongs out, and she looked at her pants and blushed and said 'how did you know'. -true story,
-so we'll probably spend the night dissing the mother country and lamenting steve irwin

new years eve and on friday night it was ethiopian new years eve, technically it was last monday , but we do that with holidays too, changing there date to make a long weekend, so there was plenty of funky dancing and singing at the ethiopian restaurant. ethipian dancing: think of irish dancing but reversed, you just move your shoulders really weirdly, and a little bit of foot movement

quotes

Homer: Are you saying you're never going to eat any animal again? What about bacon?

Homer: Ham?
Lisa: No.
Homer: Pork chops?
Lisa: Dad, those all come from the same animal.
Homer: Heh heh heh. Ooh, yeah, right, Lisa. A wonderful, magical animal.

Secret Athlete Dining Hall

the secret athlete dining hall,
tonight i went to the secret athlete dining hall in the john
paul jones arena (the big basketball stadium) misael and i got
in with some varsity wrestlign friends, this cafteteria is
stricly for varsity athletes, not even club athletes, -the three levels of sports are
-varsity : which is the university funded and supported teams, the ones they hand out scholorships and stuff too, and they have coaching staff and talent scouts - (we have the third ranked college soccer teamin the nation- i can hear that garry glitter song in out my window they must have just scored,)-
-club : which anyone can try out for, but it is still really
competitive and funded by the university
-intermuraul : which is like sports at australian universities , that anyone can roll up and play

-the athlete dining hall, has masive high definition projection
screens playing all sorts of cable sports and the quality of food is incredible and healthy! there isnt anything fried, it is in one of the lower levels of the arena, you have to ride a
secret elevator into the bowels of the arena.

monday night football
wow, i got my first taste of a live NFL game at a real sports in america the other night! nacho's and bourbon and friends who i can actually discuss the game and the players with! my NFL knowledge has been expanded ten fold.

the Washington resdskins are based in D.C which is only two hours away, so a lot of people here are fans, and it was the redskins vs the minesota vikings, it came down to the last minute and 'hall' for the redskins missed an easy field goal which would have forced it into overtime. so everyone was spewing, but i just wanted it to go into to overtime so i could stay and get another drink!

egyptian cigars-
the other night an egyptian girl showed some of us hokah or sheesh, which is what they smoke as an alternative to cigars in the middle east,she said that they smoke it to calm down
sometimes because they are high tempered people, well apparently not enough peple in the mid east are puffing away on this falvored tobacco!

it comes in a sorts of flavours, and is simply tobacco smoked through a big filter thing known as the hokah, - there are a couple of hokah bars in D.C.
we did strawberry.
- its a big thing for college kids to do in the US instead of
smoking cigarettes, and even though it might look like a giant
bong there is nothing illegal about it.-and dam this girl knew some smoking party tricks, she filled a plate with water and some detergent and got an empty toilet roll, so she would dip one end of the toilet roll into the plate and take a puff of smoke, then blow a big smoke bubble!!!
and you could burst it to release the smoke.


that is the top of the hokah on the left, i didnt get a good photo of the whole thing, there is basically a big glass bulb thing underneath that silver part. and that is the egyptian girl to the right of shot











this is at the ethiopian restaurant, as you can see there are no knives or folks, just the injera which you scoop the food with, for lunch you have your own seperate plate but at dinner they have the communal plate.













that is her blowing the smoke bubbles











Donkey of the week award goes to :
o'neils pub, it is on the corner (which is the strip that as all the cafes and bars for the college kids.) it is my favourite pub, but i'm not allowed to drink there anymore !! the police must have told them that they sent me to hospital that fatefull night. they did let me have a lemonade untill my friends finished their dinner.


















Quotes:
Homer: Cut it out boy.
Bart: Dad, what are you doing here?

GAME DAY!

Yesterday was game day, the whole university came to life, even on friday, all the ferrari's and hummer's started to roll into town, owned by the rich alumni who are now lawyers and stuff and still come back to support to Cavaliers!!

The day starts with 'tailgating' its an american thing, they do it for NFL games and college games, tailgating is hanging out at a parking lot before the game drinking and cooking up on the tailgate of your SUV, even where i am at Faulkner residence which is on the other side of campus and several miles from scott stadium, they had the john paul jones arena car park packed and full of big tents and food. so its pretty much every parking lot on campus,
-i went to tailgate at the 'lawn' the old area of campus, i got free beer and food from the com school section cause my roommate is a commy.
-then at about 2.30-3 pm every starts walking to the stadium, kickoff is three

it was crazy 60thousand people where at the stadium, it was like an NRL grand final
and we won!!!! we beat the wyoming cowboys

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/recap?gameId=262520258&confId=80
thats the link for the scoreboard and game break down

i must say our offense is pretty crap , we only made 203 yards the whole game, and we won cause they missed the extra point off a touchdown in over time, but we won, and i was going to head to a lingerie party after the game, but i was too tired, ill have to have a good night sleep before next weeks game so i can enjoy the after parties


this is the cavalier mascot














this is the band at half time












there were cheerleaders everywhere!!















the band sit in a section with the crowd and go off sporadically

Cavaliers win 13-12!

this is the lawn where we were tailgating

















60,000 people at scott stadium, when the cavaliers score we all sing 'the good ol song' and wrap your arms around the shoulder of the person next to you and sway, so each row sways a different way, its a cool effect!
even when we get a first down we have a song,




some action while we were on defense










i didn't get a photo of the cheerleaders doing a giant pyramid i didnt get my camera out in time.
but you can see why there are guys in the cheerleading squad now can't you!




















Quote

Homer: Yeah, Moe, that team sure did suck last night. They just plain sucked! I've seen teams suck before, but they were the suckiest bunch of sucks that ever sucked!
Marge: HOMER!
Homer: I gotta go Moe my damn weiner kids are listening.

-Homer must be talking about wyoming cowboys

Germain Greer can suck my testosterone filled testicles

now i don't confess to having read read 'the female eunuch' or any of her other books, and i appreciate what she did for females and the movement, but this is a seperate issue. She has made it personal. I like those ford falcon ute ads where the guy dreams of a prettier wife, and she panned those! and what has she done for me lately? nothing, and who wants to help the homeless ?no one, .

greer is the embarrasement for claiming that the animal world has struck revenge on irwin, that he treated animals poorly and that we shouldn't be sad for his loss. How can you dismiss the education and awareness irwin created towards animal kind?, how can she justify her comments when irwin put all his profits from that movie (which did have a few funny bits) into buying thousands of hectares of land for the pure purpose of preserving a pristine habitat for wildlife?

Greer believes irwin was heavy handed with the animals, wrestling them or provoking them , but like many people would argue animals have a more limited capacity to process information and pain in their brains, but that is a whole other argument.. irwin had only the best interest of the animals in mind, that is why he didn't even use drugs to subdue crocodiles because he thought it would be too stressful on their bodies, so he wrestled them into submission!!!



i have a blanket now, so im both keeping warm and the school spirit alive , our first home game is this saturday, and homecoming is the week after!!! homecoming for the americans isn't the first home game, it's the first home game that you know you will flogg the other team, flogg them till they bleed. and that team is ... W. Michigan. we have one of the hardest conferences'
-Florida State is ranked seventh in the nation
-virginia tech is ranked 16th
-the rankings only go up to 25 so i don't know ours.http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/conference?confId=1 that is the link to our conference page. with rankings and stats and scores and stuff

Gridiron Gang

gridiron, the gridiron is actually the marks on the middle of the pitch/field that make up the grid looking appearance of an american football field, these signify each yard, every yard in the game of the gods is like a mile, that is why ball control is esential, every yard is key,. ok so you may hear in gridiron movies like from 'varsity blues'
- 'the next forty minutes are the next forty years of your life. essentially that is true because if you dont play ball in college your last high school game couldbe the last time you ever put on the helmet,- unlike soccer where the fans are equally as zealous, you could join any club to play of a weekend, but with gridiron it is an incredibly complex game that needs rehearsal (like ballet) it needs management in the form of coaches and it needs a fuck load of equipment, there are no games on the weekend, its just high school - college - nfl, if you dont play in any of those you can only play flag football on the weekend, which is like touch football for rugby league but the gridiron equivallent-

the game is incredibly complex and has many levels of play, so a quarterback and the receivers have to know over four hundred pages of playbook by heart, and when a play comes off its like the heavens have opened and god has shown us the way, where as both codes of rugby essentially just have a line of men, and you keep passing it backwards untill you break that line or maybe do a little kick or something, and you may say well they are all pussies - wearing helmets and pads and stuff, it is because they are giants, i have stood behind a couple of cavalier players in line at the dining hall, and they make josh perry look like danni devito, and i feel like a mouse standing next to them, plus when they hit/tackle each other on the field, take a look, unlike league they don't brace for impact , they throw there bodies at each other, even sometimes headfirst, so there might be more padding but i call it battle armour, and it lets them attack each other with reckless abandon, plus they are giants, because they dont need the fittness to defend for a full eighty minutes like a rugby player,

Steve Irwin
what the hell happened to steve irwin i just heard, a sting ray got him! un freaking believable, a barb of a sting punctured his heart, it is sad, 'crikey' has been silenced forever





this is school spirit! every 100 yards the emblem is painted on the road, all throughout charlottesville










this is half the john paul jones arena, the new basketball stadium that is the best in the country, it puts the sydney entertainment center to shame, i don't even want to mention the tin shack you call the newcastle entertainment center. john paul jones himself is UVa alumni and felt he needed some recognition so he ponied up the cash to build this fine facility and have his name forever immortalised, we also watch the away games of the cavaliers football team, notice the runner! everyone runs at this school , i go outside at 3am and people are running!




this is the triple whopper!! this isn't a one time offer, ths is permantley on the menu, i took the challenge yesterday with a chocolate shake and fries, i call it the 'heart attack special' . i failed the challenge , but only by a few mouthfulls , notice how there is no cheese between the slices of meat, by the end it was just meat on meat with no bun, i probably had two or three mouthfulls to go, but the shake and fries filled me up.















i thought i put a photo up of nic cage, so you can spend some time worshipping him, and his cannon of work.

















movie and world news section:
i have a new section at the bottom of the webpage, it has al the news and gossip about movies, one of the articles has photos from the new transformers movie on locationhttp://www.myextralife.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=8915that is the exact link- you can see the big truck optimus prime!! he wasmy favourite, but when i was a kid my friend had the toy, it was huge, i only had some crappy little ones, and a g.i joe, i missed out on rock em sock em robots and stretch armstrong too, and his arms stretch out to forever!

-the right side of the road, it has been only this past week that i have felt comfortable crossing roads without an eight tonne SUV nearly hitting me, it took two months for the shift in my brain to accept that the yanks drive on the other side of the road, i'm sure when im back down under i'll have the same problem for a couple of weeks, i like driving on the right side of the road, i think novellty not pragmatism is the lure, the benefit of either being one of the motorists knowledge of their own nations laws and consistency.

quotes from homer goes to college episode: (conan is credited with writing this episode, the man is a god, sadly it was the last episode he wrote)

Homer: 'I've been working on a plan. During the exam, I'll hide under some coats, and hope that somehow everything will work out.'
**
Guy: Homer, sign this application, and you're a shoe-in.
Homer: Hahaha, haha, that dog has somebody's ham. Now this I gotta see!
**
Homer: My first day of college. I wish my father was alive to see this.
Abe: Hey!
Homer: How long have you been back there?
Abe: Three days!
Homer: That explains the smell
**
Homer: Marge, someone squeezed all the life out of these kids. And unless movies and TV have lied to me, it's a crusty, bitter old Dean!
Dean: Hi there! Hello, I'm Dean Peterson, but you can call me Bobby. I just want you to know if you ever feel stressed out from studying or whatever, I'm always up for some hackey sack. Or, hey! If you just want to come by and jam, I used to be the bass player for the Pretenders. Homer: Boy, I can't wait to take some of the starch out of that stuffed shirt.
**
Marge: Homer, we have a perfectly good bookcase.
Homer: Yeah, but this is what they're doing on campus. Besides, it isn't costing us: I swiped the cinderblocks from a construction site.
[At the site, a worker walks forlorn up to his boss]
Worker: Sir, six cinderblocks are missing.
Boss: There'll be no hospital, then. I'll tell the children.

(i'm going to hide under my big usa jacket when the exams are on)
