oh why thank you kerri, now if people just listened to me more the world be a far better place!
my random thought is the commonwealth games are just a joke. teams from the british empire (although there is no such thing as "the empire" anymore) compete. alongside countries you may know of such as australia (we do rock if i may say so myself LOL), canada, new zealand and england are powerhouses such as sierra leone, mozambique and norfolk island. 11 athletes from sierra leone have "mysteriously disappeared", life in melbourne is obviously better than back in sierra leone....LOL. there are people winning gold medals who wouldn't get a placing in a world championships or olympic games. but we (that being australia) are kicking massive amounts of ass so who am i to complain? LOL
