New job Steve?

Unfortunately not, looking for work again, virtually the whole tech team was laid off Tuesday including me, my 15 staff and my boss and also project managers. Check out new acquisitions threads as my diet now will be the odd cheap mexican lobby card! Thats if I don't eat it first.

Awesome. Guys if we pool them all together and slowly leak them out for sale, we should have enough to buy one Prince and the Showgirl daybill in no time!

But then how are you going to divide up ONE Monroe daybill eh?

You're more than welcome, but I'm not a very good cook.

Strine /ˈstraɪn/ is a term coined in 1964[1] and subsequently used to describe a broad accent of Australian English. The term is a syncope, derived from a shortened phonetic rendition of the pronunciation of the word "Australian" in an exaggerated Broad Australian accent, drawing upon the tendency of this accent to run words together in a form of liaison.

So it is...

Ari · « **Reply #2568 on:** April 13, 2012, 10:40:04 PM »

it rhymes with brine. Said in a strong enough accent it kinda does sound like "australian"

Maybe one of our German friends can confirm or deny this:
Is 'earschplittenloudenboomer' German for 'explosion?'

But when you buy from us, who do you help?

When you buy from them, "Your purchase will help fund our independent films!!!"

So don't consider it paying too much, consider it an investment in independent filmmaking!
