    Sitting on my porch with a beautifully, cool blond one and a cigarette, enjoying the evening breeze.
    Europeans are at work, Americans in bed. This place belongs to the Pacific right now, you, me, Daniel, H&R, Mal, the Doc (well, the latter two not really Pacific)...

    Well, that's alright, then.

    I edited that after I saw there are currently 139 unregistered users here. And since then, I see you and jet, stvor, jr4089 are here too.

    Whew, that's a relief! Thought I'd come to the wrong place!!

    Yep, waiting for a text message to see if I'm working tonight - shattered so I am hoping I don't have to. Just finished a clean install of Windows 7 - it's only way to get rid of crud with that fecking OS.

    The afternoon's wearing on... almost the holidays for me; school closes for a whole two months so I am off to NZ to take my 8-month-old son to meet his family there.

    I just got home.

    Did some [very short] filming of the workshop & staff for inclusion in our corporate video. Was a laugh.

    Now supposed to edit it; but instead sipping some Absinth and watching son's MW3 recordings.

    Me, too. Funny, though. I could swear I've seen your name in the "Currently Active Users" list before today.

    But I don't imagine you'd change that option willy-nilly, so I must be mistaken.

    Looks COLD there, btw!!!!

    Never tried Absinthe. Wondered what it was like ever since I read "For Whom the Bell Tolls".

    What's it like, Mal? Anything like Ouzo?

    Only some -3°C / 27°F - that's not cold. (FYI, I've experienced -40°C / -40°F - the scales are the same at that point, only.)

    But the snow... it's almost like a fog, at the moment.

    Here's how the shopping center bus stop looks like at times like these:

    I know you're used to it and all, but I'd love to live in a country that got that much snow!

    Damn tropics with its two seasons - Summer and Summer, Part 2!

    At the moment here, you can't mow the lawn without risking heat stroke!

    I'm exaggerating a bit, but not much.

    Yeah, I remember you told me about that. Both would be fine by me. Just as long as it was cold!

    I'm here, I just don't get on here all that often anymore. Tonight specifically, I was enjoying a Jack Daniels and Cola stubbie with my girlfriend while watching "The Devil's Double". Not a bad movie, but I could hear the british accents on a lot of the actors.

    Not to offend anyone, but rarely is there more here that interests me... the only real active threads are the Mac Vs. PC thread, and of course the religous one when its not locked.

    How IS everyone?

    Shattered. Exhausted. Exam week at school - pretending to observe students while reading. Holidays are almost here but I need some deep sleep now but I don't want to resort to drugs. Otherwise okay. A bit excited about a possible 5D MKIII release. Reading as much J.G. Ballard as I can find. Slim pickings here though for quality English novels.

    And you?

    Healthy, happy... and alive! Studying photography at school at the moment, to help me better understand my camera and to improve my skills as a "director of photography". Enjoying it more than I'm enjoying film making... which is a little worrying.

    Maybe my call is as a photographer, not a film maker? Hmm...

    I've been on here more than usual this week... truth be told my health has been failing lately and I've been pretty much laid up as useless for the last week... unfortunately the world continues to turn despite my misfortune, the pile of school work on my desk grows despite not having been to classes in a week, I'm now heavily backlogged on my evening editing commitments, and I've still got high hopes for extensive travel and field work as planned over the next several months... however when it comes down to it.. if you've not got your health, you've got very little. (at least I've got you good folks!) Here's praying for a speedy recovery.

    Wishing you the best of luck, and a quick recovery, HD!

    I've also spent much time here on the forum - more than I should, actually, since I have a half-built 7-ft long locomotive+tender waiting to be finished in the basement workshop:
