Gavin,
It's Chris D'Amico from the Taco Bell/FCB days.
I think that Aussies are terribly misunderstood. What people don't get, is that you guys are a combination of bombastic energy and brutal honesty. I have had the good fortune to know a few Aussies and call them "mates". You are one of them.
You once told me the story of "Mate-dom" and how it works...."we're all in this together, that is how Aussies are"...I was always very jealous of that truth and insight, being a Yank. But at least, I was able to work with you, experience your force of nature...good and bad...and then go out for a pint with you afterward.
I also remember living on Brooks street...It was Halloween...our families ran into one another...I think you were dressed as a Indy Driver....head to toe. I think it was a perfect reflection of your personality. Of course you had a shit eating grin from ear to ear.
Gav, I'm glad and honored to have met and known you.
Godspeed, mate.
Chris.
