I just applied for a job running the electrical grid in New Zealand.
Am I crazy desperate, or what?

I vote: or what. I would love, love, love to go to New Zealand. My wife's been there and says we could move there some day. Problem is you have to have a gig waiting for you.
Hope you get it

The Kiwis are some of the friendliest people I've encountered.

Good luck! We've got the best riding roads in the world

I'm considered exceptional.

Blue is where it's at.

Good man - blue is the best
Although my Street Triple is the perfect bike for me at present, the Blackbird is the best bike I've ever owned. Eight years of huge fun and lawbreaking.

Nice, let's just bask here, smug in our superiority, and laugh at the lowly Yanks who weren't on the list to get the better blue ones.

Jeebuz but this is crazy.
I'm being recruited via email. I don't want to get my hopes up, but hell, any port in a storm and this port is very attractive.

I'd love to pull a move like that - I don't think your crazy...but I didn't realize you were in dire straights. What up?
