Nope, I wouldn't trust them stats, huh.

All you'd need to do is put out a shout about, saying:

"There's a bit of a piss up down the road tomorrow night, and it's Trev's shout!"

... - then you just turn up and count all the arms and legs; divide that number by four, and Tah Dahh! - there's your stats.!

Are all Kiwis like the guys on "Flight of the Conchords"?

That movie looks pretty cool. When did it come out? Do you think I could a copy in Korea?

[whatever]

Who cares?

Your country is much more interesting than Korea. Why aren't you there?

Why?
New Zealand ranks in the lower levels within most of the the OECD devpt indicators esp. in regard to having one of the lowest pp income rates.

I've actually considered going to NZ instead of SK. The NZ government has this odd visa program were if you make a $3000 deposit, are a US citizen, and under 30 years of age you can have a full work visa for one year. At the end of the year, or whenever you leave, you get your $3000 back. I'm assuming they do that so idiot kids don't get stranded in NZ.

Would I even be able to find a job in NZ as a US citizen? Would I just end up tending bar or being a barback? Translating for tourists?

"No, he said his name was Bret."
"I thought he said Brit."
"No, it was Bret."

I'm good at understanding dialects. That might be a fun job.
