    There is an Aussie male stripper show in Vegas called "Thunder from Down Under"... a friend of mine did some choreography for that group.

    That's weird, man. I am an old-timer, since 1999. Then something weird happened to my login, I could not log in anymore. I hope I was not banned for being too harsh on CD during the Cato/Moochie/Taylor/Nachbar/Pisskowski years. Anyways, if I was banned nobody told me.

    Now things changed, first we moved to Australia and second CD had the best summer ever. (I actually think that CD is no longer alive and all the moves were done by Morey who is keeping CDs body around like the Weekend at Barneys)

    in Australia they put -ie at the end every word, I mean EVERY word! I was asked this morning to put my PIN-ie when I used my debit card.

    I like The Rocket Down Under idea. Does anyone know how to change the handle?

    Yeah I stayed at that hotel, the Excalibur. Never failed, I'd be walking around the Casino with my girl and one of those half naked Aussie's would be standing around handing out flyers. I had to calm her down afterwords. ;)

    Here are the photos Jeff took from Media Day ...

    Jeff did a great job with the photos... he's got large, high-quality versions of them, but we wanted to get all the good ones up, so they're shrunk down quite a bit for bandwidth purposes. I'm a little concerned about all the bandwidth for the photos, so try to keep in mind that the site is supported by the advertising clicks.

    Thanks...
    Clutch

    Mine too, but that's from carpel tunnel. :( Seriously though, it's a great feeling to be only a week away from the 1st preseason game. Can't wait to see how the guys play!

    Great pics, Jeff, thanks a bunch for sharing.

    Had a question though: one of the pics has Juwon Howard and Kirk Snyder in 'black and white'; the pic looks bad arse, but was just wondering if you did that on purpose of you're 'hinting' at something. ;)

    EDIT: There's another one with Yao in it on the second page...we're not trading Yao, are we? :eek: :eek:
