Mad!
Yes, Jacks - Im still alive!!
(Or am I - really writing this to you from beyond the grave!)
Dont really have time to post but a short comment will do.
In Italy now (Brescia) funniesing it up with my mums aunty. Pretty mad - only arrived yesterday so am pretty tired still. Switz was mad!! Such beatiful scenery! Mad countryside! Went to Mount Doom (Or the Matterhorn, as its also known) to cast the One Ring into the fiery chasm from whence it came!!!
Mad snowy white-capped peaks of beauty!

A few things:
Yes, Rob, thats right: "Where I lay my head is home..."

Yeah, mad keyboards!
òàùèèç°§é*
You may have noticed that I cant find the apostrophe on this damned italian keyboard.......meh....

Done! Floyd me up good!!

True, Norway is the land of the midnight sun due to extended periods of almost constant sunlight - but in summer! and thats furthere north not in oslo. In winter its the oposite, mad darkness at 3:30pm in Oslo - and perpetual nightime up north!

JAPAN is the land of the Rising Sun - hence the flag of glory.

P.S. Word verification will never die - stops those auto'bots from posting mad comments of annoyance

But keep commenting it up - because I do sometimes have time to read them but not reply.

More soon.................
(or is there.....???)

PPS Rob, I saw Feds multiple times.........................
..............................
..............................
in posters around the place!
DONE!

Yes, it's to do with the extreme latitude of northeren Norway where it is very close to the Arctic circle and the tilt of the earth's axis - as it rotates, one side is more exposed to the sun, hence = very long daylight hours.

Mr. Burns: Have you ever seen the sun set at 3:00pm?

Captain McAllister: Aye, once - when I was sailing around the arctic.....


You can also see the Aurora Borealis from there at the right time of year.

Errrrr....what ban of doom??
What are you swindling about Rob??

Has anyone got any Adelaide updates of wisdom??

What are the NYE plans?? (I'm guessing you guys have got none still, huh?)

Chris, how goes the Bear Hunting??
Don't renege it - I want to see it good!!

Did everyone crush uni exams of doom?? Mad results??

Done!
NEXT!

What?!? Again?!?!
Ahhh, feeble Puerts........
when will you learn?

And we all though his 'comeback' was from a reformed clean work ethic......nah, he's alright!

Well, that's his career done and done! (and I mean done!)

And Nadal STILL beat him in FO final..........pfff!

Actually, there were a few gum nights in Swtz.......but they ended in bitter disappointment.......nah, good God!! But I won't go into that here!

Italy is mad - taking it easy (Swtz was pretty hectic!)
Chilling with 'i miei parenti per Natale' (Buck??)
MAD FOOD! Shaun - you shall be updated good - but I can safely say that I'm making up for the 3 weeks of travelling alone and living in the wilderness - they're certainly looking after me very well!
(Gotta go for a run, Rob!)

Latest hair-brained scheme = trying to make it to CRO for NYE. If I can somehow pull this off - DONE!! MAD FUNNIES!!!!!!!!
Alllllllllllrrrrriiiggggghhhhttt!

Got this mad vest from from Jadranka, Enrico and Daniela for Xmas (shlick for the ladies, Rob!) Real Italian goodness!
"Correction - TWO perfectly good jackets!!)

"See my vest, see my vest,
Made from real gorilla chest."

Ah, for some reason I forgot to mention earlier but news has trickled through from the Southern Lands that I have been offered a 3 year scholarship at Uni of Adelaide at $19,300/year (mad tax free!!)

So.......my shout tonight jacks!!
HA!! Too bad there's none of you here to buy gum for.........meh!
Mad I'll have to Morelli it up on my own!
Nah, but you know what that means - mad gum night when I return!! (Chris - have some GUM!!!)
Oh baby! Did you see that look??
Tom indicating....he can't believe it!!!

Anyway, went to Milano yesterday to see a Caravaggio exhibition - I now have a new favourite painter!

Spent the day there - Mad fashion!! Boutiques of $$$$$$!!
It's the only time in my life that I've actually enjoyed window shopping!! But that's all you CAN do!!
Nah, mad I could blow my whole year's scholarship on ONE suit or one piece of jewellery!!!
It's freaking crazy times, but......it really makes me wonder......

Nuff said!
Leaving for home in one week's time...

Sam: I think there'll be enough, Mr Frodo.
Frodo: Enough for what?
Sam: The journey home....

"Mad Milano, nah Italy nah remember i gotta go there 2"

He's right! Hurry up, Jack!
Reclaim the throne of Gondor and fulfill your destiny!!

"Have a great NEW YEARS TOM and i look forward to seeing ya when you come back."

Thanks, Jack - you too and I'll see you in the next life........

"Can you prescribe me drugs that Nitch will be able to fill?"

Done! Together we shall run a dodgy operation of shame and debauchery!! (I won't be a medical doctor though = no prescriptions of fun)

"since year 11 you have remained the academic standard"

Errrr....that's the biggest!!
Remember how = Hawn of Wisdom

Mad beard!!!!
Hunt that bear good!!!

Alright Chris.....you can have some Fanta.......Fanta spiked with GUM!!! Ahahahaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!
That motherfucker's always spiked with gum......

Homer: Hey Apu, you got any Skittlebrau? You know, that beer with the candy floating in it??

Apu: I'm sorry, Mr. Homer, but such a product does not exist. Perhaps it's the result of one of your methadone-induced hallucinations.

Homer: Ohhhhh.....in that case, just gimme a six-pack and packet of Skittles.

Well, plans for NYE in Cro have fallen through cos it would be 'too difficult' and there's a chance I could miss my flight back to Adelaide.........
So, the back-up plan = going with Jadranka & Enrico to their friends place (which is their traditional NYE) so looks like there won't be mad gummage......just NYE with the oldies (although they do have a daughter who is 23.........)

Shaun = food update:
Mad tongues - cow tongues!
Take that tastebud boy!
Had a mad proscuitto pizza.......meh, it was OK....I've had better.....
Lots of fish, minestrone, all kinds of breads, salami, hams, cheeses....
One day went to this MAD restaurant where there were like a billion courses, each more sumptuous than the last!!
Mad Tom = Fatboy when he returns!!
(Rob, gotta go for a run on Torture Hill!!)

Nah, mad dial-up.....it's alright!!

Alright, well I don't know if = any more updates cos the comp is moving to Daniela's house, so the next update might be in the next!!

Buck brain: "See, hard work does pay off"

Buck: "shutup and get me some Skittlebrau"

MAD FOOD TOM!!!

cows tongue!
man your taste buds have been blasted away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TAKE THAT TASTE BUDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mad billion courses of sumptious delights!!!

speaking of sumptious delights...when you get back we were thinking of having a mad dinner. so you can regale us with your tales of bravery and debauchery.

i was thinking kor bar but most ppl want mogol...either way im cool.. mad mongol

2 more days till the tomASS returns!

"2 more days till the tomASS returns!"

Correction: Two more days till the tomASS LEAVES - it will take another 2 days for me to arrive back in the Shire (9:00am 5/1/06) such is the perilous nature of my arduous journey............

Cajneri arriving the next day so that doesn't leave me much time to decompress.........

"man your taste buds have been blasted away!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Yeah, that's right!! NOW who's the tastebud boy?!??
(Not too bad actually - once you force yourself to forget what you're eating!)

"we were thinking of having a mad dinner"

Done.........and done!
Mongol is good (whatever - except KorBarb). Can we have some Skittlebrau (mad gum!)
I might need a few days to recover foist, jet lag, etc. plus coming from -4 to +42 = DOOM!

Anyway, slideshow of wisdom will probablie be the best way to convey the visual experience (also so much has happened that I'm not likely to remember it all without visual cues). Remember how over 700 photos?? DONE!! And super slow slideshow at 45 seconds per photo = mad torture!!

NYE wasn't that great pretty boring actually......
But Shaun - you woulda loved it. It was at this chefs house, so mad dinner as if it was in a restaurant (once again, 2495u47 courses + mad grappa, Spumante, champagne, wine, funnies, snow, and a cat and dog too!)

So, I've decided we have to have another one when I get back - DONE! (Hey, the Chinese do it, why not??)

NEXT!
