Well, now that I've actually seen this post, I can tell you. Uuh, it's pretty good?

Yeah, I like it, in fact, I love it, Australia has the best atmosphere around in my opinion. Of course, I've only ever lived here. So. I can't make that call. But it rocks, it really does. Relaxed, calm, friendly. Yet beautiful, in its natural splendour. All in all, buy our beer.

I can honestly say there is no place I would rather live.

Why didn't you use that in the campaign? I would have seriously considered you for serious.

Hmm, not that I know of. I've never heard of it. But I tend to stick to my computer for music in any case, and it might have been before my time. Or I don't remember it.

"In 1986, the World Dwarf-throwing Championships were held in Australia. The USA were not represented, which may weaken the claim that the sport originated in the United States. The undisputed world champions who still currently hold the record were Team GB from London, England Danny Blue, Roy Merrin and Lenny The Giant."

Haha, I would totally buy that novel.
I haven't written that book yet but perhaps I could interest you in some of my other books:
<u>1000 reasons why you should kill yourself;
Shut that God Damn Bastard up before I pimp slap him and you: A parents guide to raising children;</u> and
<u>Mommy and Daddy are never coming back</u> (A children's book)

Yeah, part two is where they both come back. Daddy goes to war and is MIA, presumed dead. Then mommy remarries and when daddy returns mommy kills him in front of you causing you to go deaf, mute, and blind. Then you get beaten by your cousin, abused by shrinks, and get an acid trip from Tina Turner before finally beating Elton John in a pinball compitition and regaining your senses. At which point you are beaten nearly to death by hordes of fans at your pinball training camp.

Or maybe I'm thinking of something else.

I don't remember. I haven't watched it since I was 7. It's pretty dark. Maybe netflix it first. Or use my method of rent-to-own.

If by "make everything better" you mean little Billy growing up to be a mentally unbalanced adult, after being moved from one foster home to another after his aunt "mysteriously disappears", who climbs up to a church bell tower and kills everyone in his path before turning the gun on himself, then yes everything turns out alright in the end.
