For goods.

Kinda had an epiphany while I was here. New Zealand was chasing the dream of an angry kid who had lost everything, even faith in humanity, and for whom New Zealand represented a viable alternative to despair.

But that kid of 2004 is very different than the guy he became by 2010.

I will *never* regret going, because if I didn't, I would have always wondered "what if." But New Zealand is a solution to a problem that doesn't exist anymore, and the dream of a angry young man who grew out of it.

Whoever had 89 days in the pool wins.

Hey man, as long as I have known you, you have always talked about moving to New Zealand. It was a dream, and you had the brass balls to pick up and move to a different country to follow what you thought was right for you.

Even if it was an 'old' dream you still followed it. And that's great.

I doubt I could pick up and leave the US thinking it was for good.

Welcome back.

damn, I wanted you to stay long enough for me to visit, or at least for you to pick up some of an accent

Hell no! Apparently, having an American accent is really, really sexy! I can't wait to take it back with me to Texas and see how it works there!
