Hey Mike & "Nina" (I, like Amie, am just getting used to that name... you'll have to explain it some time)
I'm very jealous of you guys... you look like you're having the time of your lives! I've been checking the site often and keep being more and more impressed! I guess I'll have to start saving for a trip some day... Keep enjoying yourselves and, again, hope to see you in Saint John in a couple weeks!

Hey Mike and Nina,
I finally figured this Off Exploring thing out. I tried before to open it but the pictures took a long time to come up. So I thought that I could not access it on my computer. Anyway's the pictures look amazing. I am so envious, don't buy a house! Ha! I hope to do some thing like that some day. As for now I will keep to my house responsibilities. Great idea on the post cards, great way to keep in touch and share your experience with everyone. Any chances you are passing by Toronto? Be safe and enjoy the rest of your time!
Amie
Hi Mike and Anita (Nina! - still getting used to that!),
Hope you guys are continuing to have the trip of a lifetime. Can't wait to see you (Nina!) in NB this summer - hope you can make it! If not you better make it to NL next summer for June 29- you are both expected! Love keeping updated with your pics and postcards (I am addicted to this site!) and Nina, I know you are enjoying meeting all of your relatives. Enjoy some good east indian food for me. Call me when you get home!
"ARNIE !!!"

HAHA the last 3 posts - the TRIPOD lives. Goodtimes is right.
Good to hear from ya Rocky. This website is genius. Now I can verbally assault not only you (which u know I can't resist) but also the Cheifer and anyone else close to you (AKA Barb).
Although I did get mine handed to me from Barb with that last post - good job B - nice burn.
But Cheif you must realize one thing. Getting burned by Barb Connors is not an insult - its an honour and a privilege that few experience. You haven't quite reached that level yet. You'll get there buddy, just hang in there.
Barb and I have an unspoken bond and understanding that verbal abuse = love. We have shared this bond, even in the early stages of our relationhip. Its uncanny really. So much so that I researched deep into my family tree to reveal a shocking, life changing fact.
Barb - I am your son.
Yes - Search your feelings, you know it to be true.
So how about some stir fry?
Love Timmy
P.S. I appologize for taking up so much space on this site.
My nonsensical posts are purely for Mike and Nina's entertainment. Its what I do.

Bula!, Hello all. Nice to see a few new faces on the site. Goodtimes. Timmy has brought a new flavor which I guess was always to be expected. Nice work. Well i have to keep this short again because it is 25 cents a minute here for internet so Timmys last post cost $3.50 to read. Things are going well here. Unfortunately the weither on the west coast of Fiji has been cloudy but warm. Suntan is fading. We have done quite a bit since arriving here. We have made it half way across the manin island hitting a lot of great sites. We hiked in the rainforset which was awesome. We sandboarded down the craziest sand dune ever. For those who know marble mountain, NF imagine standing on top of OMJ with a small body board in hand barrelling head first down the hill on this board. Obstacles to avoid include a big drop, a barb wire fence and a big green Bus. Crazy but a hell of a lot of fun. We stayed in a nice hotel the first 2 nights here and have been touring ever since. One hostel we stayed in was a dissappointment but it was only for 8 hours and we weer back on the road. The past 3 days we have been visiting Ninas family. Its a lot of fun to actually see a different culture from the inside rather than being an on looker from a far. Yesterday we ate fresh coconut, papyia. and a few other tropical fruits from the front yard that I have never seen or heard of before. We also ate traditial indian meals which included, chicken, chutney, curry, rice, etc. etc. but most suprising for both of us was mutin (sp?) i guess its young lanb? And yes we both ate it!! haha the things you will try on vacation. Today we are going to Vijays old house and then back to the family residence for a game of soccer. We are filling the kids with candies and ice cream!! I think they are really enjoying the attention. Anyway I am at about $20 for this message and nina uncle is here for us. Hope to talk to you all soon. Unfortunately until we find better computer facilities pics may be at a minimum. But we have some good ones so stay tuned. By for now. Mike and Nina

Hi Mike and Nina thanks for the call and I'm so glad Fiji is all you expected, I know you will not have the opportunity to send pictures as much as in Australia but just a few messages will keep your friends and family up to date on your travels. You now have a new Fan his name is Timmy "ha" Mark who are you trying to fool. I would love to send you food but I'm not out of the hole financially since the last meal you had at our house. With all your travels around Canada I wasn't sure where you hang you hat now, Hope you like Calgary and work is good. Don't forget us when you come back to Atlantic, we will be here in NS or NL {Love} to hear from you.
Nina I spoke to your Mom last night she tells me you are going to be busy with family for a few days.Take in all the sights and bring back lots of great pics if you can't post them on your site.
This one is for Timmy
Love Mom

3 Things to Address here.....
1) BARB!! If you don't give me some love via this website I will never eat anything that you cook ever again.
No - that's not true - I'll eat it but I dont have to like it
No - that's not true either - I'll probably like it
I love you Barb
2) Steve-o. Asking "Who is Timmy?" is a complicated question with a complicated answer. Timmy envelops many different
emotions, colors, shapes and styles. Timmy is humor first and foremost. Once Timmy has entered your life, it will never
be the same. A life without Timmy is a life incomplete and unfullfilled. You can get rid of Timmy but Timmy will never
really leave. Timmy is a way of life, a religion, a path of righteousness all bottled up and hidden beneath a cover of
unbridled adolescent ignorance and stupidity.
3) Rocky I should warn you of the side effects of Rosckstar Supernova which I have been suffering from for the last 3
days. I have not been able to eat, sleep of perform any of my activities of daily living since watching the first episode.
I have developed an acute case of torticollis, locked into flexion and left rotation due to exessive staring at the
fretboard of my guitar. Due to this exessive playing I have also developed an ulnar neuropathy and carpel tunnel in the
left hand. I find myself losing motor control of my neck mvmt's as I catch myself headbanging to almost any rock tune
that I hear. The work I am able to perform is subpar. For some reason my spinal mobalizations follow Tommy's kick
drum beat in Dr. FeelGood. Although some patients still leave reporting that they're feeling ALRIGHT! I am at risk of
losing my job, my appt and my woman. Take these into consideration as you sit down to watch your first episode.
Timmy is out
Cheers
Crotch

The madness has started rocky
RockStar - Supernova is sick. It's phat. It's UGE!!!
I'm addicted already - spent 2 hours on www.rockstar.msn.com the other night. Mona got mad.
Here's an update cause I know you want it.
15 singers - 10 of which truely nailed their songs - covers from Nirvana, Black Crows, Nickelback, The Who yada yada
The chicks are smoking and killed the guys in the first round. One sang Nirvana and I had nightmares about her. She tore it up. The guys were well represented by an Aussie from Melbourne who did a nice job on Knocking on Heaven's door -acoustic and some dude from TO who tore up Rebel Yell by Billy.
What else - oh yea the realitly part of it - all 15 got to go into the studio to check out Supernova's first single - no lyrics though or vocal tune. So the band finishes playing and Tommy (aka GOD) asks - so who's up for putting down some vocals for this tune. 14/15 of em came up with lyrics on the spot and jammed to the new Supernova tune.
SICK!!!
As you can see I need to contact the Betty Ford Clinic for help regarding this new found addiction.
I gotta put on some tunes, grab the guitar, rock out and get kicked out of my appt.
Out and Down
P.S.
Coming soon to join the crew - Satch!!
Satch rocky SATCH!!!
