1. hello?

  2. Fine thanks, just a lazy Saturday evening, how about you?


  3. does that mean your in Australia? It's Friday night here.....
  4. Just doing some site maintenance....putting up new Mediafire links.
  5. As crew do you get paid? or is it on a volunteer basis?

    Yup, i'm in Sydney.


  6. Definitely no pay....just helping out in whatever way I can. Actually, I was made a crew member because I had a lightning-fast internet connection and was laid out in the hospital for a few months so I had the time to help put up Mediafire links.

    Never been to Australia, but like everyone else in the world, I want to. Have you been to the US?

    No, but I definitely want to go, such a vast and diverse country.
    My uncle lives in New Jersey though, so we may go up in 2010.

    And btw what do you mean by listing 'slave to the man' as your occupation?

    Haha....Eh, I don't know if you're familiar with the saying...Not sure if it's strictly American or not. But....at the time I was working in Hollywood as an assistant to producers and directors. I had a rough year in 2008 and got laid off in the writer's strike, then had my spinal cord injury....Now I moved back up to my hometown and am doing something completely unrelated in the aviation business.

    No, I am definitely not familiar with that one , you learn a lot of Americanisms on this site.

    I was wondering what it meant, at one point I even though you were a priest/minister or something!

    Haha....no, not a priest. I guess the best way to describe it is it means you're doing all the hard work for someone in charge and not getting enough credit!

    Yeah, the US is crazy how vastly different it can be. I suppose Australia can be the same way? Do you travel much within Australia?

    Ah, that makes sense, we all know how tough Hollywood personalities can be.

    I've been to various places around NSW, and interstate a few times, the only states I haven't been to are NT and SA. And I'm going to Tasmania (or Van Diemens Land) next Monday.

    Australia is similar, but the differences are nowhere as big as you get in the US, mainly minor differences in accent, the biggest differences are between city folk and country folk here, but I guess that's pretty much the same in every country.
