I just bought this for $100
Edited on Tue Feb-15-05 01:35 AM by SoCalDem
A young man we know is moving to Australia.. His bride is Aussie, and after a year of living here, she's totally homesick, even though her Mom & Dad have visited here 3 times in the year they have been married, so.. They are selling all their stuff and moving there. Her husband (our friend) is really jazzed.. he's never been out of the US, and he is SOOOOOO ready to leave.. Her Dad has guaranteed him a job, and they will live in the family's "other house", so they will be just fine :)

and we got a bargain on a pretty cool tv :)


RCA F32648 32" TV
it's 6 months old

2. I think they got...
... the better part of the deal--they got money to get far away from Bush, and you got bigger pictures of CNN.... :)

But, otherwise, a good deal. :)

has only a football photo in it? Damn.

7. Anyone who gets that much homesick after just a year, especially an adult,
is someone I'd be afraid to be married to, and would be especially afraid to move back to her old hometown to work for her father, and especially to live in the family's "other house".

I'd have warning klaxons going off so bad I couldn't sleep.

But maybe that's just me.

Anyway, kudos to you on the awesome score on the TV! That's a hella good deal!

12. She has only been here 14 months and was born & raised in AU
He is not particularly "in love" with the US right now.. jobs are not that great, and he's looking forward to going.. She's 22 and he's 24.. It sounds like a great adventure.. I think they'll be better off there than here:)
