Chris,
To give this post relevance you must leave come Monday. Otherwise, Joe is going to have to revoke your user priviliges. We will all see to it.
It is a shame you must go as I have not fully grasped your stance on rednecks, bike paths, small penis syndrome, vegimite, dinner rolls, hills, headwinds, magpies, new helmets, crashes, scenic overlooks, television, religon, panniers, college computers and many, many more.
I want to be the first to come out in the open and say that I think it is great and applaude you for getting over your fear of biking around Aus in womens underware. We may not have come out and said it, but Chris, we like you the way you are.
You will be sorely missed my good friend, carry on...............
I say we make Buddy Hayden our new "Best Austrailian Friend" now!

I think you need to include a quick cycle to the library at least once a day, even if it means missing your lunch break 
Take care

I hope "indefinitely" only turns out to mean one or two days.
Meanwhile, Buddy will just have to post five or six times as much, so we keep the Orstrarlian perspective on things coming at us.
I hope your new living quarters will be good ones, Chris--far away from brush fires and preferably equipped with a T1 line!

It appears I have won a temporary reprieve. Someone I know has to move to Brisbane in a hurry, and was going to put all their stuff in storage. I suggested that it would be cheaper to leave it with me and help me out with the rent on this place for a couple of weeks. Then I had to convince the agent on this place to let me delay my departure for two weeks (hopefully by then, all the tourists will be gone, so rental units at Coolangatta will be more plentiful and less costly).
The net result of this is that, against all odds, I am back. For a while...

Hey, welcome back buddy!
Actually, now that I think on it, I never really said goodbye, did I? This just doesn't feel right...
I think I can fix it though...

Bye Chris! We'll miss you! Hurry back!
Okay, that's better. Now I can welcome you back. But I've already kind of done that. Hmm...
Well, I'm gonna need some time to figure this one out, but until then, welcome back.

alright people, seeing that you are all getting so overexcited about this guy, i think i should point out that as of later today, my alter-ego will really be going offline properly, unless he can find free public internet access somewhere, something i have little faith in him managing to do.
in any case, it's of no consequence because you already know his opinions on most things anyway, so there's no point getting excited. he's off to get his new cable now, no doubt the most exciting thing he'll do all day i shouldn't wonder.

I think your addiction to this forum will prevail. I don't believe you will stay off the gear for long. Anyway, why should finishing University bring you back to the dark ages. Surely you will find an employer understanding of your internet and cycling habits.
Best of luck,
PB
