Woohoo. I was assigned to work with the Latvian military in a very interesting capacity. They were stark raving nuts. Half the soldiers were psychos and they were all conscripts.

No 'awesome'
No 'cool'
No 'badass'
No ' lense'

... sheer heaven :D

I apologize for my American brethren. It's a cultural thing, and is no doubt upsetting to the sensibilities of our British cousins who are usually at least 35 years old at birth, enter this world speaking flawless English, and totally shun all manner of colloquialisms.:rolleyes::p:D


I'm not short. I'm concentrated awesome!

The closest to peaceful time is when its too late in the US and too early in the UK and is around noon here. Of course, I've got company from the 'maites' downunder :)

Heh, I guess I am just a night hawk, cause I ain't asleep, but not really in the States either.
Mm, getting ready for some candid street shooting tommorow. The theme, shooting thy shooter (hopefully, me and another photographer are going to scout photographers in touristic attractions.)

I wonder if the French, the Quebecois and the Cajuns have similar lively discussions amongst themselves about their own language. :confused: :)

Bloody hell Sir. Hehehe.

But, I have to admit, when I look around the world, I am glad that Australia, and England are out there to balance out some of the craziness of the the planet. Good friends they are to the US, and despite their inability to speak English, they sure are good friends that cover our backs, and vice versa. I like that some of this thread turned the angst towards the French. As Benny Hill used to say on his comedy TV show, bloody hell, we can all meet in the middle where we hate the French. :)
