    I have a walk man! :P
    It's old, and about dead, but I still use it. ;)
    And we move because my mom got pregnant and we needed money, so we moved to [i]Oklahoma[/i] to mooch off of my rich grandma.

    Oh my gosh, I had dial up till I was eleven years old, then we went with out internet.
    Dial up sucks -_-
    I don't know. Last year I didn't have internet OR cable! D:
    I would go over to my friends house and get in trouble with the
    police, or just go around her neighborhood.
    Wish I could still do that.
    I hate moving places. >_>

    No, no! I don't mind at all, I love it! :)

    I get where you're coming from, definitely. I might re-work it later. I don't do any revising before I post my stories. I just wanted to give a short little thing about how they met. It's just the prolouge, so I didn't think much besides 'describe a few key points in their relationship', and then I moved on.

    Over all, it's going to be a very short story.

    I suppose I just like it better as is. I'm a big fan of flashbacks, and I wanted to cover their past relationship more than just a conversation. Plus, it revealed more about how her family is inside the same scene.

    Excellent question.

    Though the story is titled with the daughter's name and focuses around her kidnapping, which hasn't appeared yet, it really is about the relationship between the parents and how they handle the situation as a couple.

    I thought that in order for the audience to really care about them pulling or not pulling through the entire ordeal, they might want to know exactly how and when they met, how they got engaged, and a bit about bringing Karrie home.

    I'm sure pro bono is in the rules for everybody; maybe it all comes down to whether it's genuine or for the partnership.

    What happened in the 80's??

    Not to mention a law student. I've read a lot of John Grisham books....and you'll seem like shifty as figures :] Apart from the Pro Bono's....or that could be argued against too.

    Okay, ziploc bag. I'll be waiting for that in 8 months time. Unless!!!...customs thinks it has some sort of bug and they then believe you're trying to infiltrate new zealand was hideous diseases. Like...dengue fever, which is the current craze on the soap opera's. Then....who knows what'll happen.

    Rugby, tackle rugby...sevens; I think it all means the same. Put your head between some mans thighs, get the ball and score a try. Bobs your uncle. :]

    Phar Lap; I have no idea what went on with that, actually. I just know he ended up in Aussie; and now he's in Te Papa in Wellington. In a big glass cabinet I believe/or saw.

    + yer welcome. I don't nee an ice cream by the way. Unless, of course, you're eager to cross the ditch. In that case; an ice cream would be quite dandy.

    Sheep shaggers *cough* Ha. I'm sure there's a lot of pointless rivalries. Like...apparently australia cheated at rugby, and that's why we all hate you. :] Taking games to a whole other level. Not to mention aussie apparently taking and clamining Split Endz, Pavlova, Far Lap...as their own.

    Haha, yes, I'm sure we can ignore the rivalry..... :] It's easy enough. I mean, if you were a total prick; I'd be thinking; Fuck you Aussie. But you're not. So it's all good.
    Sweedish. Maybe the family wanted to jump on the bandwagon.

    Everything goes on the student loan; right what I need. :] I'm thinking I'm going to pay the bank a visit in the next few weeks :]

    Ah Aussie. No. I don't think my nationalist pride could swallow studying there. Ha. See, that's how bad our country rivalry has become. Besides, I'm going to culture central; looking damn forward to it too.
