| 12th December 2006 Chad | - From: Permagrin and the Zambezi River Sure you don't want to come back and paddle the Chattooga at 1.1ft? Has anyone open boated the Zambezi? I need to install some pumps on the ole open boat and fire it up...haha! DOB |
| 11th December 2006 anonymous | - From: Dumela from Botswana Dude, nice warthogs. They were my favorite in Africa. |
| 4th December 2006 Jack | - From: Jo-burg your blog doesnt really say anything useful at all... apartheid and the holocaust are about as different as a fly and an elephant. it is insulting to jews to compare the two. |
| 4th December 2006 Funk | Hmmmm... - From: Jo-burg Thats strange, not sure that you feel safe all the time huh? Well guess what... YOU"RE IN AFRICA!! |
| 4th December 2006 clinton | - From: Jo-burg Finally you have left us, we thought you somehow made your way back to double bay. Looks as though you are having fun. There are 2 things that I relate to the south of america: Possum soup and the movie "deliverence".. Did Daz email you the photo of you and olga? Daz is in love now, shut the gates for "Daz Abbott". Have fun over there and watch out for the dodgey criminals, you idiot. |
| 1st December 2006 olga | where are you - From: $26 Suit Mad Mike, is it true you have finally left Sydney.Rumor has it Daz and Clint saw you shopping at Double Bay Warehouse yesterday, or were they joking as usual? |
| 30th November 2006 Sally | nice tie, slick! - From: $26 Suit Farrell, you are having too much fun -- and I'm terribly jeolous! Anyway, you'll have to write soon to let us know if you ever really made it out of Sydney. Love the Olga. That's what Matt will get the next time he misbehaves. :) |
| 29th November 2006 Nicole | light beer - From: $26 Suit Hey Mike Daz told me I'd been published on your blog. Never forget that light beer in Australia is low-alcohol... haha :) [And it doesn't beat water!] Have fun on the rest of your travels. Nicole |
| 28th November 2006 Clinton | Thankyou - Mad Mike - From: $26 Suit Mad Mike - It was our pleasure (speaking on behalf of Daz,Ants and I) that you landed here with us in Sydney.Although you tend to have much etiquette for the female population, and morals which we do not always support it has been fun times and theres always a place to stay if you return. But I'm sure well venture to Atlanta sooner than later so you can show us your neck of the woods.Just remember some aussie/kiwi slang sayings and spread them around the world: chop,shalacking,good sorts and of course last but not least SLAPPERS. |

| 20th May 2006 Smitty | - From: Scout's Corollaries You should not cut your hair again and start a new trend. When I see you next I expect to see you looking like Forrest Gump when he was running back and forth across the country. |
| 9th May 2006 Pogue | Picture 2 - From: Scout's Corollaries I agree let's see that head shaved. By the way do they charge by the size of the head for a hair cut down under. You may need that van money sooner than you thought. Good Luck |
