'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

There's also a WaWa (no gasoline) on the Jersey Shore between Point Pleasant and Seaside Heights.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Tru Calling is back. eBroadcast.com.au has it pencilled in for Tuesday night at 10:30PM in Adelaide.

eta: SG-1 is also back. 10:30PM on Wednesday and Thursday nights. It's followed by The X Files. Channel 7 have acquired the rights and are starting from scratch. The pilot is on Wed and the first ep of the first season (Deep Throat) is on Thursday.

etaa: I'm sure the irony of this pairing is lost on everyone at seven. Since they were/are both shot in Canada, quite a number of familiar faces appear in both shows. In SG-1 those actors tend to have recurring characters, while in X Files they play different characters with almost every appearance. Amongst the familiar faces are "Sam Carter"; "Col Maybourne"; "Sgt Silas"; "Major/Lt Col Sameuls"; "Charlie"; "Dr Warner"; "Dr Frasier"; "Major Davies"; and "Major Kawalsky".

To every idea a shelf...

I'm excited about this. I love old school X-Files but not quite enough to buy the DVDs.

'And on that tragic day, an era came to its inevitable end.' That's all there is.

I like 7-11's actually, it's comforting to know there's somewhere you can go to buy milk at 3 in the morning. Angus G "All Ogle, No Cash -- It's Not Just Annoying, It's Un-American" Aug 26, 2004 5:16:55 am PDT

why was a 7-11 open at 3 in the morning? (following Liese)

OTOH I am comforted by a 24 hour supermarket with milk (and everything else) at supermarket prices

Um, 7-11's are open 24 Hours! (Although presumably at one time they weren't.)

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

Seriously? Jeez, I've been away too long.

Are there any in Adelaide (as opposed to the larger country towns)? I know Bi-Lo had two or three 24 hour suburban supermarkets but they've changed to midnight closing.

I know I'm going to kick myself when I see the answer but; who's "pat the rat" and from where would I know him/her?

Ficht nicht mit Der Raketemensch!

I don't think people in Australia really think of 7-11 as a dining solution per se

They do in Dogs In Space

7-11 over here has been rebranded Budgens, but they were a lifesaver during my raving days - there's a window between 1am and 3am where the only place you can buy any food at all on the west side of Brighton is 7-11. I spent many an happy hour in there, swaying slightly trying to focus on food packaging...
