Yes please....
If that's the case you got to upregulate your cortisol to keep you awake.

Yes sir!
Are you a big fan of action flicks? :wink:
yes! although I have slowed down my consumption of them in the last 3-4 years. Have to get back into it!, how about you?
Live, are you in the U.S.? and so will have to suffer the crazy viewing hours?

Not really a big fan of action movies. But I don't mind watching if there are some good ones.
I am more towards suspense, biopic, dark comedy, and thriller.

Oh yea bolo, you just reminded me that we both share the same timezone.
Makes it a lot easier to catch the AO.

he reminds me of mcenroe too! I find both of their oncourt antics amusing.
I agree...Murray's antics ARE really funny, a la Mac. We're probably in the minority on this, but Murray's fun to watch BECAUSE of his tantrums!

Yes Bolo, I am in the states and in the eastern time zone. I wont be able to watch many night matches because they will start at 3.00 AM :shock:

It was bad when I was on the east coast. I would wake up at 7 am to find federer/davydenko going at in the 3rd set and drift in and out of the rest of the match.
Those were pretty brutal when I lived there, now in seattle, a little easier. But I guess it's less of an issue with dvrs etc.
Check out this blog from the stringing room at the Australian Open: http://www.baiardo.info/cms/index.php/eng/Tour/Australian-Open-2010
It looks like there has been some extreme temperature changes which is messing with the player's string tensions. I wonder who this will effect the most...the guys hitting with a ton of spin or those who hit a flatter ball. Regardless, I will be curious to see if this has any effect on play in a few hours!

I finally watched the big lebowski a couple of days ago, pretty good overall I thought. All the minor characters were really well done. Ofcourse the big ones (the dude and john goodman) were good too.

ouch that was a pain. I remember I was so busy last year that I just watched the SF and Final. I think I will start watching from QF or 4th round this time around as I have a bit more free time. =D
Do you know around what time it will be here by the time these night matches start (around 11 p.m, 12 a.m. ish?)

Yea that was a good movie. Did you get a chance to watch Fargo? i=I think that was a great movie. The flow and the suspense were pretty remarkable.
I think it's 12am start for us for the first match. Nice for us tonight, nadal is on first!

Yep. I will get a chance to see if Peter would have what it takes to knock out Nadal. :wink:
Yeah that was really good. I felt there was more heft to that movie than the big leibowsky, which is less story and more sort of just watching the dude and john goodman move through the movie. They seem to like to reuse actors in their movies too. Both of the killers in that movie were in the big leibowsky as minor characters.

Yeah it totally makes it more fun to watch him. When he punches his strings and he's bleeding it's like WTF!

I think there is some doubt about whether peter even made it to this flight to melbourne after finding out he is facing nadal.
good question Burgh, I don't know the answer......
