Live Free or Die Hard
I have already dedicated at least two blogs, to New Hampshire's 'Live free or Die' state motto. I think it's pretty neat, and what about the people who choose to die. Well, anyway in America Bruce Willis' fourth installment of DOn Maclaine's adventures, blasted out of the cinema under the title. 'Live Free or Die Hard.' I thought it was classic, and really sums up Maclaine's attitude, he destroys half the city, but god damn he gets results. -I have the Internal Affairs and the DA breathing so far up my ass, that i got smoke coming out my mouth.-
So i guess 'Live Free or Die Hard' is a bit of an americanism, but i think we could have handled it. Instead they must have focus grouped it, to a bunch of the biggest nerds and computer geeks of all time, to come up with 'Die Hard 4.0' what a load of bullshit. I think Australia was up for live free or die hard, not pansy wansy, daffodil, puppy breath, Die Hard 4.0. Shame on you studio executives. They probably thought our tech savvy population would really see the humour in a software program pun. Instead of being kickass, we our left to wonder about the technological age, and how it even sneaks into movie titles.

Homer: Woo-hoo. Four-day weekend.

That weasel quote by Homer is one of my all time favourties. Well done.
dude, weasling out of things IS very important, especially in busniess/office life, which you now know about, office life is all about weasling out of stuff. I got inked upped today, and as my 3rd tattoo it is my biggest and most badass. Ill put a pic up, but when you see it in real life you'll say, 'wow, Daniel, that is one bad ass tatto.' i went to the place of the gladiators which is a maitland bikie group and the dude was drinking bacardi breezers while he was doing it.
i received your curious package of tabloid clippings... i was thoroughly amused. almost as much fun as an english tabloid... i strongly suggest a lawsuit against toyota for exploiting your suffering. or, at least that's the american take on it. in america no one is responcible except for someone else, and sue anything that moves... god, this is a great country!

jroc those clippings were from legitimate newspapers. The newcastle herald is the main paper for the city. Its just we don't have shootings or anything, so we have to report on fat wombats going nuts.
-lachy i thought the bacardi breezer was a bit weak for a biker, but he was also doing it for the sugar high, he had some lollies too.
the stoned wombat may very well be my next myspace foto... heeheehee
