Hi, my name is Echverry (it's actually my last name that then became my nickname thanks to 2 years and something of military school) but people call me Cherry ( yes, because people are lazy and tend to make things shorter and seem cutier). Either way welcome! (and I'm not crazy I just tend to rant and type about pretty much anything that goes thru my head when I have had some drinks on). (honestly paying 45$ for that pizza was a bit tooooo much).

haha, it's too bad we all don't just say everything we think when we've had a few drinks. that could lead to some serious party-stoppers. ...or starters.

in any case, oz is popular (and for good reasons).

Welcome Amy! There's a lot of info about OZ around the boards and more than a few 'punkers are from there. you should be able to find answers to almost anything you dream up.

Hi amy, pleasure to say hello. However, I'm way to jealous about your oz trip to be wholly positive and so will say only this.
