I was chatting with one of my students about the 'joys' of childbirth. He is studying scriptwriting.


I nearly fell over when he told me that he'd named his son Max because "He came out sucking Nitros ..."


It just occured to me that maybe I should have posted this under 'You know you're obsessed'!!!!

Yes, but was he born at St George's Hospital, as used by crispy Jim Goose in the original Mad Max? I mean, I know my son was, why accept anything less!


Actually, I'm not that obsessed (honest!), it just happened to be the closest hospital to where I lived. I didn't even realise it was the same hospital until the next time I saw the film after having been there. You all believe me, right?

Yeah, sure Peter...


A person who runs the preeminent Mad Max/Road Warrior website COULDN'T be accused of being obsessed with the movies! LOL! So is your son named Sproggle?


Now if I went to that hospital, you could accuse me of being a bit obsessive. The commute from Missouri to NSW is a bit hard to explain to the insurance company...

Hey Mitch,


Are you near Springfield, Missouri?

Especially as it would still leave you about 800kms short of the hospital in VICTORIA.

Yeah, but the point of the commute would be to see NSW. I can get admitted to the hospital in Victoria AFTER I visit. That's the part the insurance company might not understand. LOL!


"I know I'm supposed to go to the nearest emergency room, but I trust the doctors at St. George's SO much more."


Think they'll go for it?


lastxc, I'm northeast of Springfield. I live in St. Louis, MO, with the Arch and all...


Mitch

Hey Mitch,


I have been to Springfield a few times for work and could be there again soon.


Bruce

Mitch, do you like football? I mean American football, I'm a great fan of this sport and I have a replica jersey of my favourite team... St.Louis Rams

Bruce,


You come all the way from Australia to Springfield, MO? What in the world could be in Springfield that your employer has to send you across the Pacific to a small Missouri town?


E-mail me and I'll give you my phone #. If you get to Springfield, let me know and maybe we can get together.


v8, Go Rams! St. Louis is a great sports town. Cardinals baseball, Blues hockey, and of course the Rams. I'm not a rabid fan, but enjoy the occasional game. Who's your favorite player?
