Speaking of khaki... I just can't stop thinking of Steve Irwin. I work with Discovery Networks and they are all pretty devastated. Probably mainly over their Animal Planet ratings though.

I'm sure a whip will come in handy for knocking them down from the palms, in which case I'lll need a machete too.. it's funny, after 4 years of complaining about townsville, the 'ideal' Ive just described there is still tropical.. maybe we're not so 'over it' after all, hey? well, Kathleen and Maria (and do you two realise who the other is?? a hint on your connection: JADE) thanks for the congrats, but, hey - I still have to do the work this semester! it’s soooo far from over!

I think that will remain a mystery to us all, Timtim! or.. maybe his grumbling performs a social function after all, beause when he whinges a voice in your head says "oh, shuttup, you, look: it's not so bad!" so he's actually turning us all into unwilling optomists! really, in fact, I love the complaining! plus, it goes well with my 'Nark' tendancies - like my immense sense of satisfaction telling off people who park in disabled carparks (or even, the other day in the supermarket; parents whos kids were wheeling around the trolleys modified for wheelchair users just for fun - the bloody family where using three of them, so if any wheelie came to woolies they wouldnt have a trolley!) err.. so I'll assume none of you are thinking you want to be friends with us when we're 70 now... haha!
