  1. daylight savings time
    Gotta disagree with you there pal. Daylight savings comes on tonight over here. So now the sun doesn't go down till 8.30pm. Beers in the sun down by the beach after work on a beautiful spring/summer day. Gotta love it :-)
    f'n austrailians that don't understand that when spring/summer starts down under fall/winter is happening here.
    you are a dead set goose mateif you don't have the ability to assume that i was referring to the benefits of daylights savings for our respective seasons then you need to give yourself an uppercut.

  3. passion about animation. Nothing beats it!! 8) Personally, if we're talking old school animation, i'd have to go with teenage mutant ninja turtles. Donatello was the man. And who can forget Vanilla Ice in the movie!! Those were the days....

  4. It's alright.  I haven't watched enough of them to really form an opinion.  Based on what I have seen though, I prefer the Simpsons!
    Nowadays, the Simpsons suck ass.
    Yeah, the words flogging, dead, and horse come to mind.
    :clap: Family guys screams it in over the simpsons now but what do you expect. I mean, the simpsons has been going for 15 odd years. Its run its course I think, Things get stale eventually. Peter is the new Homer
  5. I hate that working 6 nights a week prevents me from participating in fun things like playing in the Neg-O.And people who smell of eldeberries.
    the fact that I work 9-5 and still don't play in the Neg-O, even though this guy is clearly distraught at the fact that he can't.
    It's probably difficult to muster the energy to play while drinking rum and arguing with your parrot, though.
    lol
  6. Here's another question.Whats bigger in the states (and canada)?Soccer, basketball, nfl and baseball at amatuer (like school kids) level and/or pro level
    I would say that football (not soccer) is by far the most popular sport at all levels.Now if you're talking about participation (as to how many people play). I would say that soccer is big among kids (when you count boys and girls), and basketball is big among teens and adults.I have no statistics to bak this up though.
    I always thought baseball was more popular than basketball. It seems that i've been living in a dream world. :-)
  7. The world series of baseball and the world champions of baseballI don't get it. Why do you guys in america call your national baseball champions the world champions. Shouldn't they be the US champions or something else (maybe the unofficial steroid supremos??) :wink: Seems weird but hey, thats what different cultures are all about :club:
    Well I saw the Australian Olympic Team get beat by the US amateurs by the slaughter rule so I think we've got the Land Down Under covered...
    Don't worry mate. There aren't may australians losing too much sleep over our national baseball team. :-) At the moment, the whole country is geared up to try and get into the soccer world cup. We haven't been in it for 40 years!! haha. But after we lose both our matches to Uruguay, we'll go back to not caring for another 4 yearsHere's another question.Whats bigger in the states (and canada)?Soccer, basketball, nfl and baseball at amatuer (like school kids) level and/or pro levelI thought nfl would be in pro level and perhaps soccer (including females) at amateur level.I guess i should include ice hockey for the canadians. What was the name of the #99 player. Waynes World or something?? :?
  8. Has anyone in Australia put vegemite on a torttila chip and melted some cheese on it? Maybe throw some shrimp and mango salsa on there too. mmmm. :-)
    All the time!! in the summertime it is as good as goldWho won the Olympic gold medal for baseball? I thought Cuba was up there with the states or aren't the pro's allowed to play?and while we're on baseball, has anyone spared a thought for the game it was derived from...yes, thats right, CRICKET!!! the greatest game of allwe're talking about a game where the SHORT version goes for 1 day and the long version goes for 5 days but the best bit is that getting hit on the body by fast bowlers (135km/hr-160km/hr depending on the bowler) is not only legal, but encouraged! :club:

  11. although there's no way i could've played (unless sydney and las vegas's timezones suddenly aligned!), just wanted to add to the thankyou's for being so open and accessible. It means alot to all of us.I'll do a stereotypical newbie post and annoy the veterans by saying you can play in my home game in sydney anytime you're in the neighbourhood! :club:

  12. You know guys...you are going to think that this is a litle weird but....I got a program installed on my computer that saw this thread being posted BEFORE it was posted.....FCP is rigged.
