Handing out the mX

Aug 07, 2008 21:21

I hand out the mX newspaper at Flinders St. Station. Tuesday saw the Lyndon Larouche fan club join us.

Larouchian: "Come and get the solution to the banks crisis! Don't take Murdoch's [mX] paper"
Trady: "Yeah, the solution on two pages" [As he took the mX]

i know it's ridiculous and stupid and geeky and just you writing the paper name accurately, but i love the idea that Random Office Dude decided to start his sentence with a lower-case letter and then spike to the X.

OH OH. I think I saw you today! Or rather, heard you! You have an impressive voice if it was you!

I wasn't handing out the paper today, I was handing out honey in Preston. But I'm usually on the top end of the concourse, near the clocks place, or on the corner of Elizabeth and Flinders Sts. I'm the fat one with the dark brown hair, and usually a black T-shirt with a pair of jeans.

Apparently, someone wrote a letter about me in the paper today, and as it goes, it's the one day i didn't get an mX.

hmmm interesting.. Or maybe it was yesterday (it's all blurred in my mind hahahaha), but I did hear someone on that end of Flinders St station singing whilst handing out mX this week.

I can give you a pdf copy of today's mX if you want? (I work at Herald Sun hahaha)

Then it was me, my only problem is half the time I run out of songs.

Yes, I'd love a PDF of today's mx. I'll message you my email address!

Hey just curious, but how come mX gets handed out? Is it a paid gig? (You don't have to answer, I always just wondered, given it's free and all).

It is a paid gig.

If anyone wants a job, www.staffing.com, and check the mX box.

I think I am the only one who hates the mX.

But hooray for singing and getting paid to hand it out :D
