Thanks, fellow Antipodeans. I'm hiding on this site right now so that I miss the first election debate on TV. I care so much that I can't bear to watch it. After this I'll go on Twitter to find out who "won" and if it is okay I'll watch it On Demand. I'm glad there's something I care about as much as my teeth!!
