Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Speaking of SOA, did you see that the guy playing Jax has pulled out from the Fifty Shades movie. He couldn't handle the backlash from the housewives, ha ha

^ Can't argue with that. I mean, wit source material like that, what are the chances of the movie not being terrible?

What's depressing is that it will be, yet heaps of people will go and see it anyway and the producers will make a nice profit. And there will then be sequels. :x

ill get panned for this, but I bought the first couple of seasons of Lost on ebay to watch while I work out, and now I remember why everyone was so addicted at first!

it really was the start of the epic who dunnits!

I bought the rest of the series, and I have 2 episodes to go, which I intend to watch together tonight!

everyone said it lost the plot after the first couple of season, including me. problem is, you had to wait a week between episodes, and months between series.

when you watch it one after the other (ive been known to watch 2-3 when there is nothing on at night, you know, all the time now!) its so damn clever. its like they wrote the last episode and worked backwards.

anyhow if your bored, give it a go!!

(oh and im Glad Jax pulled out of the movie too!)

I read somewhere that he got the inspiration for the character during a time he spent using public transport with girls from MLC.

My MLC attending daughter reckons he has nailed it too.

I'm not sure how I feel about that....
