So my illustration work has taken off and I've been offered a job in New York as one of the on-staff illustrators for a publishing agency. It's good work and good money, but I have to kinida leave the country of my birth, where all my family and friends are to pursue A PIPE DREAM.
As if I'd be inflicting myself upon America on a permanent basis. THE BEER IS TERRIBLE.
Hop you all had a great April Fools day kiddies. What mischief did y'all get up to?

Wrong! :mad: The beer you get at a bar is cold piss. The good shit, ya' gotta look for. And it puts your backwards Aussie booze to shame. To shame!

Agreed. It's a total myth that America has bad beer. (Or at least has been a myth for several decades) You just need to look past all the commercial stuff. My beer conoisseur friends tells me now that American beer has probably taken the lead in variety and taste.

Wow! Come to New York so we can visit when I'm there for cons and stuff!
But don't you have a significant other? Would she be coming too?

Y'know... if you did move over there, you would improve the place a great deal.

That's very true. We'd love to have her. In exchange, we'll give you... um... Lindsay Lohan, Britney Spears, Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie and her baby, Justin Timberlake, uh... Nancy Grace? And, like, everybody from Fox News. You guys don't have a Fox News yet, do ya'? Well, you can have ours.
Welcome to Amerikaland, Rosy!

Fox News is owned by an Australian. They have much to answer for. I'm still holding them accountable for inflicting Air Supply on us.

Rupert Murdock's really an Australian? I thought he was just a crazy asshole who talked with an Australian accept, like Mel Gibson! Well, fuck that, none of you people should be allowed over here! :mad:

Not no more, Gail. That ended a good month...two months ago. Ehehehee...
I would totally go to New York if I could afford to, and visit, and con stuff! However, everything I know about New York I learnt from Law & Order: SVU. Not a good impression it make.
It didn't even make the list for TGAMJ later this year...because it's too far away from where I want to be with the time I have.
But I'm sure it's mostly fictious...I hope. :eek:

I assure you that the number of cop shows that take place in NYC is disproportionate to our crime rate. We're way safer than a lot of US cities that don't have any cop shows.

The plans have been finalised! I will be gracing said shores 14 weeks from now.
Which means you have ample time to prepare a welcome party. Scoot to it! ;)
