Being an extremely tall person, I naturally have a very deep voice. Usually at Kiddie Soccer, when I begin talking to the kids, they all get scared and run away. It's just the way things roll with me, you know? In addition to my low voice, my accent is often compared to that of the California Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger, who of course hails from the country I was born, Austria. As well as people over here informing me that I am very tall (as if I don't already know this!), they tend to add a thing about me sounding like The Terminator - Arnie.
Now, I'm okay with this because Arnie is possibly the coolest guy alive - he really is. He is worshiped back home...by everyone. So I have no problems being compared to The Terminator. Sean Davies is loving it at the moment because I showed him a Youtube clip of something called "Arnie's Pizza Shop". For anyone intrigued by this, here is the link to it:

Sean thinks this is the funniest thing he has ever heard or seen and I would not disagree with him. It's brilliant. Because of this certain clip, there has been a lot of banter flying from Sean. For example, he asked me to do a certain office task and I sent an email back to him saying I've got to finish my player evaluations first. He replied to me with these exact words, "If you don't, then I will punch a pepperoni through your head". In order for you to understand this, you must watch the clip. Go on then, what are you waiting for? Have a watch.
Just a quick note to say that I am very excited at the moment as I just received an email from a publishing company wishing to print my University Thesis into an actual form of a book! I could not believe it when I read it! I did my thesis on the commercialization of English soccer and how it has affected the supporters. Obviously, the publishers like what they read! So I am just waiting for further details from them. I think I should ask for 1 million dollars for the publishing rights, don't you think? I think that is reasonable enough. Anyway, I'll be sure to let you know what happens with that. Have a good weekend all!
