Well, I'm close to Washington DC, and have been thinking of going there to see the essentials (the white buildings and the penis), but don't really know if there's much else, apart from drinking a beer with you and avoid getting killed by muggers, that warrants the cost and investment of time involved with going there?
Are you kidding?? The muggings are the best part! We're damn proud to be the murder capital of the country. Whenever a guest visits I always make it a point to give them the grand tour ... white house, memorials, smithsonian, and then SouthEast DC.

Well the Great Barrier Reef is a fair way from Melbourne (as in, 1000+ miles away) but you're welcome to try diving in our marvellous Port Phillip Bay if you ever make it this far south. It's more or less the same as the GBR except for the lack of coral (well, pretty much any wildlife at all actually) and the preponderance of this poisonous, black stuff. But hey, if you like looking at disgusting, sludgy sand, we got plenty of that!
Well ... if you have good muggings in Melbourne then count me in.

Hey, you're the one with the snazzy new (pending) job that's going to fly you everywhere and set you up with hotel lodging. How about you drop by my neck of the woods!?

Magic is so 1998 here in the states. Did it just make its way over to Europe?

Nah. It's just that we're not so conscious about being cool that we'll give up on something fun just because it becomes uncool.

But you are aware that it's most definitely uncool, right?

i saw some pics on the news recently from melbourne, there were like thousands of "spider crabs" or something like that, that basically covered the whole sea bed! looked pretty cool but no place where i would like to put my feet down!
and about magic, i remember some of my friends played that, WHEN THEY WERE 12 haha

Ah. Very interesting. It sorta conflicts with my theory that Swedes are born with no appreciation of fun. Apparently, you learn to hate it as you grow up. The critical age seems to be 13. I hereby refine my theory.

I would guess I'm significantly better at playing and getting drunk at the same time.
No, wait. Come to think of 12-year olds these days, I'm probably not.
I wish - getting to Aarhus and back with the train is around $60, and takes three hours. $8 an hour is not an excellent salary.
However, I think that the deal is not as good as the BBC makes it sound like. You need to have your sperm approved before joining in, and few men have sufficient activity in their sperm for this. Second, you take the risk of some misty-eyed adult turning up at your doorstep 30 years into the future claiming to be your child. I could live happily without that experience.

You have 12 year old friends? Wow..that's just so cool. Oh, btw, they wouldn't happen to be human friends, would they? Or are they more of a...herbivorous sort?
But seriously, yeah, lot of kids play it, but then again, I used to play chess at 7 so that really doesn't say much about the game..

Yeah, that one is pretty good. Anyway, the reason why I asked you for Urza's armor is that it works really well with Pestilence and a protection from black creature...
Or in other words, kill everything but yourself

Yes, it is awfully lame.

Reeeeally, i had no idea you could travel from one spot to another for 3 hours in demark! sure you didnt start in another country?
but yeah, dont they have some kind of privacy? is it really possible that someone might trace you? sounds like an important issue that should have been taken care of. If it was, and you lived in arhus, and you had good sperms, i would be pretty awesome tho. 500 danish for half an hour work, i'd do it besides, that would also mean my top of the line genes would get spread without me having to raise any annoying children
btw anyone wants gmail, guess everyone who wants it has it by now, but i figured i could ask, its an awesome email service. just give me your email and i will send you an invite, have like 50 left...
