« on: February 21, 2007, 01:01:19 AM »
hey everyone. i finally have the internet in my apartment! unfortunately web pages load slowly, so i can't post any pictures just yet. it's taking them forever to upload. yesterday i climbed the sydney harbour bridge, did a lot of walking around, saw the botanical gardens, and stayed at a youth hostel overnight. i'll post pictures of what i saw when i can.

Awesome pics, QC. Glad your having fun. :naruto4:

Stay in touch, but not too often. Do lots of fun stuff, instead of hanging out, here.

So what's the food like there?
George:I'd say I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I'm not. I excel at not giving a shit. Experience has taught me that interest begets expectation, and expectation beget disappointment, so the key to avoiding disappointment is to avoid interest. A equals B equals C Equals A, or whatever. I also don't have a lot of interest in being a good person or a bad person. From what I can tell, either way, you're screwed. Bad people are punished by society's laws, and good people are punished by Murphy's Law
