Can I just point out that nobody cares if you CAN'T be there or why.
 
I'm in.
 
Uber, can I suggest you extend that parent/guardian rule to anyone whose surname is Greene.

Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.

How about these ones?

Not sure what time I finish work, Have some things planned for that day too. May try to move them to another day as Im keen to see it. If I finish at 5 its okay, but 530 will be pushing it. I'll see if my mate can come, his name is james, you dont know him. Just as an FYI.

What you are actually saying - "Ohhhhhhh, check me.  I have a friend away from the forum, I'm so much better than all you guys."
 
Well I don't care.  James sounds like a dick.

All I do is make the stuff I would've liked
Reference things I wanna watch, reference girls I wanna bite
Now I'm firefly like a burning kite
And yousa fake fuck like a fleshlight

Not sure what Ricki's schedule is like, but if he has time he probably will hang around for a little while and sign a few autographs for fans. He is a nice guy like that.

I have been imformed that the schedule for the event starts from 5pm and unvieling is at 5:30.
Not sure how rigid this is, but i have sent out a media advisory to most of the news hounds (except the herald- not a fan) and expect to have several TV crews and journos on site from around 5pm.

Who needs a Halberg award when you can have a puppet in the BB!!

The answer to life's problems are rarely found at the bottom of a beer glass - but it's always worth a look.

yeh, hate too grizzle, but the sound was a bit quite and the images seem to jump about a bit with a few continuity gaps

edit -actually the visuals improve if you scroll down fairly quickly - still got probs with the sound though

Send an email to them Greene saying that she left something behind at the bencher. Like a wind shield from her mic. They may even give you her number.
