Brian and I our first week in Sydney

 

 

 

 

 

 

Notice I'm squinting and it's not just because of the sun, today I don't do that anymore so the eye is on the road to recovery!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This is a koala waking up to us staring at her, whilst a huge thunderstorm brewed above us all.

Okay one thing I am getting quite frustrated with here in lovely Australia is the lack of high speed internet.  I am losing precious minutes, hours and days of my life waiting for pages to load. Something as basic as searching Google can really set you back- nevermind the fact that wireless internet is just non-existent.

 

 

By entering, "Why the hell is the internet so slow in Australia?" I got this hit:

It's been TEN MINUTES and the page still aint showin.  I would think I just got bad luck at this specific internet cafe or a slow connection but it's been this way everywhere I go. There just isn't high speed internet. Damn. And I really wanted to make this post interesting but I guess I'll have to wait for Kevin Rudd, the new prime minister who just won a referendum election earlier this month, to fix my high speed. He's made it one of his top priorities, and the Australians aint gonna know what hit them when it does.

 

 

My brothers and sisters a whole new world of livin and multi tasking awaits, with chat protocols, video conferencing, social networking, (working), and a range of vocabulary from youtube to xyz-tubes to suck up all your free time. You need to be pissed for not gettin it sooner. Now I better publish this shit now so I can get out of paying more than half an hour at this slow mofo operation.
