Tips from Abroad 17 Hours on a Plane is a long time [posted by Troy] I am going to totally benefit from Jordan's year in New Zealand. Here's what I've gleaned so far: Don't mix up Kiwis and Aussies. They don't like it. You get to see 4 movies on an 11.5 hour flight. Not bad. If you get the travelin' bug, it might not itch, but you still won't sit in one place for long. Accents are all in Rs. For instance, we pronounce "air" as ay-err. Kiwis would say somehting like ay-ah. Now, that's cool. Moral of the story is that Stoner sounds healthy. He didn't swear as much as usual, but I think his parents were in the room. Rock on, Stoner! 10:36:29 PM  permanent link  Reader Comments []  Google It! Mission Accomplished... ...if you don't count the hard parts that we haven't finished up quite yet. [posted by ZelderBar] It' been one year since Bush stood on the USS Lincoln and proclaimed victory, and thanks to a few bad apples, the U.S.'s respect is dropping like a rock. Note from ZelderBar to Troy: "Don't run for president, not worth the aggravation." 12:43:21 AM  permanent link  Reader Comments []  Google It! Ross, Joey, Rachael, Monica, Chandler, Phoebe Gone Forever!!!! YES! Finally! [posted by Troy] I give friends much of the credit for making me a librarian. You see, back when it was Friends, Seinfeld, & ER on Thursdays, I used to ask to work at the Augustana Library on Thursdays, because I could get more homework done. It gave me quite an opportunity to learn about libraries in a low-pressure sort of way. Now, the last episode is coming up this Thursday, and I can't wait. Sure, Friends did capture a unique "between" marriage time in the lives of GenXers, but it also made GenXers act like 4th graders. Do any of us really think that Ross could possibly have a PhD? Puh-lease! Don't worry, don't worry. We'll get to see a constant stream of friends episode in syndication. Not to mention that we'll probably have a string of crappy movies from these actors (Matt LeBlanc, David Scwimmer, Lisa Kudrow, Courtney Cox, Mathew Perry, and Jennifer Aniston). 12:41:01 AM  permanent link  Reader Comments []  Google It!
