Sweet, we are staying in the Lodge Uranaka.

I wear my googles all the time. They are so bloody comfy and the lenses are great!

If it wer me i wouldn't focus on "the latest gear". You can get the older stuff (1-2 years) for heaps cheaper - as already stated. Most of the companies (boards especially) don't really change much except the pattern on the board. Just go with whats comfortable and what will fulfil your needs.

Yeah some of boots have incredibly long laces. Why - no idea!!!!!! Sorry mate!!! Maybe just to get in the way and give you the sh!ts!!!

I'm with you Mudguts!!! GIVE ME METAL!!!! Nothing is better than Slipknot, Mudvayne, Coal Chamber, Deftones, KoRn, Drowning Pool, Slayer, Hed (PE), Tool, Amen , Machine Head, Soulfly, Muderdolls, Stonesour.......the list goes on and on and on and on..... basically any metal!!!!!

Told you!! I'M THE KING!!!

I've got a PS2. Personally, i think the PS2 still has the market by the short and curlies.

I love beer! But i'm alergic to something in it. Seriously, it f*^kin' sucks.

Despite the name Vegemite little to do with vegetables. Marmite is a similar thing as well, just with a different name. Kinda like Coca Cola and Pepsi - similar product, different taste. Vegemite is a "concentrated yeast extract". The main ingredients are yeast extract and several salts. There is also some vegetable extract, but i dont think its that much. Hope this helps to clarify what Vegemite is!! Cheers

Ah Linkin Park. I saw them live a while ago. I'm a "metal head" i guess, i don't hate them at all, but they definatley aren't metal. I think they are a hybrid between poprock, nu-metal and rap rock. Only a small part is nu-metal though. I see them as a "softer" (for lack of a better word) version of Limp Bizkit.

Yeah i think Vegemite is a bit of an acquired taste.

I love that episode of the Simpsons!!!!!!! Fan-bloody-tastic!!!!!! Homer the pot head, just great!

The Joy Luck Club. I saw it when i was 10 on a plane. Boring movie for a ten year old guy! Cube - i thought was pretty crap!!! The whole bloody movie is shot inside a damn cube!! The whole bloody thing!!! Virus - yeah, it's pretty bad. Shreik, if you know what i did last friday the 13th - RUBBISH!!!!! Man there really are some bad movies around!!!

Vegemite wins hands down!!!! No contest!!!

Normally i use gloves, but my gloves are old and need to be replaced. Im going to replace them with mittens. They have less of a seam to let moisture in and less seam means less that can be seperated. Plus what Sam has already said!

fukdane - I'm into pretty much all metal, both "nu" and old. My favourite couple of bands have the "nu-metal" sound. Slipknot, Mudvayne, Drowning Pool etc But i also like "old" (from the last decade) metal like - Soulfly, Tool, Slayer, Deftones (borderline "nu"), Korn (their first two alubms are the best!!) al those kinda bands. There seems to be a very constant flow of new bands in heavy metal. The number has definatley been increasing sharply in the last 5 years.

I find snowboard boots to be a million times more comfortable than ski boots. Not once have i come home from a day of boarding and had sore feet. But when i used to ski, most days my feet would end up aching. Just my experience! Cheers

Has anyone here tried "Promite"?? I did once when i was a little kid, haven't touched the stuff since. It is similar to Vegemite expect that it doesn't have salt, or something like that anyway. But jesus, it makes a difference!!!

Don't worry Sam, i was going to ask the same quesiton!

Nulla, Do you know the name of the place you are staying at??? Sounds like you've got quite a posse going over!!!

Yeah nothing beats vegemite on toast!! Peanut butter is good too!

Cheers Mudguts!!!

I'm not deformed!!! And back to the topic........... any good heavy metal night clubs???

Yeah, i have had the odd peircing.....but you can never have too many, well nearly never. Besides my next body mod is going to be a tattoo sleeve on my left arm!!!

Thanks for the reply deebee. Not you though Sam, little bugger. I'll try searching Google and see what i can dig up. Cheers
