^ I jump on a plane, fly two and half thousand kilometres, then a helicopter for another 600km out to sea, takes about one to one and a half days to get to work (but once I'm there, I stay for thirty days)

^ I have had the same job for thirty-one years.

< Doing the ribs for the Cygnus I am working on.

v Out of you and your friends what was the worst job any of you has had?

(A friend in the Northern Territory works for the department of main road. Once a week it's his turn to go out and clean up road kill.)

Don't judge a man by his medals, but by his scars.

(i was asking in that way : if a man who tortures and kill children for fun wanted YOU to work for him [whatever the task]. would you take 5000 euros? 10.000? or does he have to throw your wife/kid/parent/brother/friend in an acid pool for you to do it ? )

^my answer to that is a serious threat on wife/kid (not the others. sorry dad/mom/friends, thats life)

>still doing extra demoreel scenes

V now the question is clearer, idem for the next

Do you believe in Love?

^ Holy Sh*t! That's a heavy questions!
I'd like to think that I would not have a price! That morally, I would never bend to that! However, like the song by the song says "I'm not a coward, I've just never been tested, I'd like to think that if I was I would pass"
If my loved ones were threatened, and I believed the threat would be carried out, I'd probably do it for free. But if there was no threat, and he was just willing to throw money at me, again I'd hope that 200billion would still be too low a number - only one way to find out - any one willing to make me an offer?

> Having a lazy morning, planning on getting started later, and having a great night watching the state of origin football, where NSW will win the second game and go two up in the series!

v Having just stopped and tally'ed up the total capacity of the extenal harddrives on my desk and gotten a bit of a shock, what is your total media storage capacity?
