I am pleased that you would love to visit New Zealand and don't want to visit Australia. We Kiwis never pass up an opportunity to get one over the Aussies.

What is wrong with us Aussies, is it because we have the most dangerous jellyfish, snake, octopus, and one of the most dangerous spiders. Crocodiles, missing tourists, shark attacks, or the drunken brawls. To be honest I saw an interesting documentary recently on some Indians having a look at all the good and bad stuff in aus.

Mock commercials I think have some good relevance:

Slovakia knows about Rick Santorum?!? Crap! I felt bad enough knowing that we'd let him out of Pennsylvania.

Ditto ditto on Mr. Sandler

Slovakia knows about Lewis Black?!? Awesome! We have to export something good once and a while. (I realize that it's probably a longshot, but he's well worth seeing in person if you can ever wrangle the chance; I saw him at the State Theater in Easton during the height of the loathsome Senator Sweathervest's highly distressing rise in the polls; much fun was had at his expense)

So you hate Rick Santorum and Adam Sandler, but love Lewis Black and Now and Then, Here and There? I am all about all of that.

You're very welcome here, sir.

It's really hard to decide.

New Zealand = land of LOTR.

Australia = you get to ride kangaroos.

Do you remember the movie Kangaroo Jack? Where these two guys had a ton of money and a kangaroo kicked them in the face and stole it.

That's what I just thought of.

It's all good, especially since Dean is your avatar. I'm about a season behind on the show at this point but I will catch up eventually.

@Masakaki: Nice to meet you too Smile. Sorry for the late answer. I was away for a week, on a vacation. I have never heard of the name 'Ignas' before, but I like it.

(I feel bad about bringing this up, but Lithuania isn't farther away than the USA for me, but it's still far away. Okay, let's forget about this issue Laughing. When I actually looked it up, I saw the distance NL-Lithuania is about 1500 km, by car. I thought it was longer than that!)

Edit: I added the link of my introduction to my profile Smile
