Bad Things

Let’s go Buffalo!!!

Yeah, I wouldn't go that far. Just because you haven't witnessed fights does mean that they don't occur. I've never seen any down here in NZ, but I can sure read about some in the morning news.

When did heckling from the crowd become a thing in professional golf? It's not a good look, and certainly doesn't help the stereotype.

Good grief. I'm not talking about the possibility of the Bills moving to Canada. Where did you get that from? I just don't see how this helps any of the local fans, or the season ticket holders that are shelling out a fortune for the right to buy tickets.

What an insult to the fans.

Wait, you're being serious? I thought you were just being sarcastic and trying to be funny.

Lets go Buffalo! Hockey, Hockey, Hockey!!!

Holy cow. I just finished watching the game. One of the strangest wins I've ever seen. The perfect type of game to be our foundation for s championship season. Let's go Buffalo!

Lets go Buffalo!!!

A fan base with a positive attitude during preseason? Isn't that how it's supposed to be?

We saw "Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds" open up for U2 in Auckland a few years ago. They sounded good and played all of the popular Oasis songs, but I would've walked away disappointed if they were the headliner.

Let's go Buffalo!!!

What's that supposed to mean? I was asking about the strange numbers you were writing to me. 1 hr and 54 seconds? What does that mean?

60 minutes and 54 seconds?

Of course I know you're totally joking, but I want to make a little point to say just how awesome the people are here. Everywhere we've travelled throughout the South Pacific, the people have been great, however the Fijians would certainly be our choice for the friendliest. (The people on Aitutaki are the funniest.) We always try to get away from the main tourist areas whenever we travel. No resorts for us. It's easy to do in Fiji since the islands are quite a lot larger, and you can easily, truly "escape". (We're on the island of Vanua Levu, about an hour North of Savusavu.) Just about every single person we've passed on the street, greet us with a beaming "Bula!!". We'll be driving around in the car, and villagers will come off of their porches just to say Bula! to us. People working in the fields will greet us as we go by. Last week we stayed at a little beach house on the water. No other houses around us for 1/2 a mile or so. Every day the locals would come over just to give us fresh coconut, Papaya, Guava, etc. Most of these people's homes are just little shacks with no running water or even electricity, but they want to make sure we're all taken care of and happy. It's absolutely lovely and is a life-lesson we will always hold on to. We experienced the same thing last year, on our first visit here. That, and the diving, are the reasons we're back again. This year, we packed half of a suitcase with children's clothing that we want to pass out to the villagers on our last day. That's something that I'm really looking forward to doing... passing the love right back to these beautiful people.

Maybe he's here so Keon can break his wrists? Even Steven.

Now, I personally can't stand the sight of the guy, but Mahomes deserves a lot more respect than what he's getting here.

Yeah, I'm full of sh*t because I really want to impress you. You mean that much to me. You and all of your other cult members. You do understand that you're not constantly under water the entire time you're on a 3-week dive trip, right? You do know that there's plenty of time for swilling rum and f'ing around, right? So, nothing to say about the actual content? Figures.

Hmm... this is our second year coming to Fiji and to be honest, I've never been warned or heard about any dangerous spiders. That said, we're on one of the Northern Islands (Vanua Levu) and they may be an issue on one of the other chain of islands. To be honest, my only slight concern is the mozzies and all the reports of dengue fever. I certainly don't want that! Whenever I hear of dangerous spiders, I instantly think of Aussie. Crikey!
