Bunch of wanna blessed-bes. Nowadays every girl with a henna tattoo and a spice rack thinks she's a sister to the dark ones.

Discussion of episodes currently airing in Un-American locations (anything that's aired in Australia is fair game), as well as anything else the Un-Americans feel like talking about or we feel like asking them. Please use the show discussion threads for any current-season discussion.

you shouldn't have a sitemap because you shouldn't need one

AH! I can get behind "you shouldn't NEED a sitemap". Just saying "You shouldn't have a sitemap" is a little bad and freakish to my ears, though.

I am amused by all the plotting for John and plasmo's company. I think we should charge a buffista group-mind consultant fee. We could rake in the dough--imagine all the stuff we could consult on! Of course, in John's case, it would be in Australian dollars.... t /mean taunting about non-American money

If I only had a brain...

you shouldn't need one - the nav should make the structure of the site obvious on every page.

Hah. Hah. Also, it's amazing how seldom sitemaps are up to date.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

If you'd put your money into Australian currency at the start of this year instead of, say, the S&P 500, you'd have so far earned a return of something like 9.8%. Plus, the Australian All Ords so far this year have outperformed the S&P 500 by 10%; so putting money into the Australian economy over the last ten months would've been a better bet than the American one by about a 20% return.

Er, if you happened to have a spare few Gs lying around, y'know...

What he said!

But I still believe in my heart that the correct exchange rate is 75c US, 100 Yen, and 50p UK.

Apart from anything else it was easier to do the maths in those days.

To be fair, US$0.50 and 33p UK aren't too hard to work with.

US$0.50 and 33p UK

Hey! Stop that! That's 0.560864 and 0.352769!

I can recommend Turkey...

Edit: seriously, in the year 2000, the only currency, anywhere in the world (including even New Zealand), that underperformed the Australian dollar was the Turkish lira. This was of some small comfort to us, since while we were there our dollar dropped 10 cents against the greenback.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Well, as you can tell by the Buffy thread message count spinning like an odometer at the Indy 500...it was a great episode. Scary too. And Funny. And HSQ.

And how about the season so far, Hec? (And others) How's it shaping up? Angel too.
