I DID read this, I just missed the headline. Oh, Famous, you are the living end.

Maybe I just blanked out for a second and they did introduce you – I hope so! Anyway, I just looked on their website and you’re mentioned there, at least: http://things.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=277467

I don’t want you going away thinking that Australians are rude!

No plug?!?! I spent all day shooting that thing. Gary Sweet (the host) was super fun to hang out with though. He told me he auditioned for Archie in Gallipoli. Didn’t get it though. But still. So cool.

I hadn’t heard that it aired. Thanks for letting me know. I’d love to see it. Hopefully they mail me a dvd. Welcome Australia! See ya when I see ya. . . but not if I see you first.

Hello there,
I’m a twenty-year-old from Australia and am terribly excited because I just spotted you on the television show ‘Things to try before you die’. To be honest, I was a little embarrassed because I recognized you immediately from the first brief shot of your eyes and forehead, but I wasn’t sure it was you until you took the host to the pickle place! I must say, though, I was very grumpy that they didn’t introduce you or give you a plug. You deserve a plug!
Anyway, I don’t know if it was stupid of me to write this excited little ramble, as perhaps you, or someone else, has mentioned it elsewhere, but I couldn’t help myself. Thanks for the fantastic blog – I’m leaving to study in the US in a few weeks, and might look you up when I travel to New York!

I suggest you don’t eat at Palma unless you want terrible customer service. They must have such a loyal regular crown that they can just completely dismiss anyone else. I had great food there but served with complete disinterest and even attitude at times.

I hadn’t heard about the health center, but I just looked at that article you linked to… Have you seen Dave’s article about waiting at JFK? http://famousfatdave.com/blog/2006/05/25/chicken-and-cricket/

Forman, I actually take taxis quite a bit, and I do hear cabbies getting traffic info from their friends pretty often. They do a current location traffic swap, which I think is awesome.

Have you guys heard about the new health center they’re trying to build for the cabbies at the waiting lot at LaGuardia? My brother was part of the planning team that designed it; I think it’s a great idea…
