Pigs colon? bring it on I say, if its anything like cows colons, it going to be extra-ordinary masticating experience! I would be a good contestant on one of those fear factor shows, th
  3. saw a bike courier have a massive stack today, served himself right too, flying at the speed of light and didnt see the salary man on a mamachari coming the other way.... wammo, luckily the salaryman came out of the stack in one piece and could ride away, the couriers bike was mangled. Too many bike couriers ride like complete maniacs.. ....just a useless musing in a useless thread....
  4. ouch! I made love to tree a few seasons back, I was pretty lucky to get away with a nasty deep bruise on my thigh/hamstring. He must have been nailing it speedwise to sustain such injuries, tell your mate to take it easy and be well! Out of curiousity, was he wearing a helmet?

  11. Weetabix and Weet-Bix are quite different beasts, Weet-bix found in Southern climes is quite a bit coarser and flakier than its smaller sweeter northern cousin.
  12. I did some research on headphones last month and the for about 6000yen the name Sennheiser came up as the ones to get. CX300 I am going to order some online. if money is no issue then I believe one of the the best money can buy is "Shure" they have one set of in-ear phones that cost about 45000yen that offer exceptional clarity; deep, tight bass; rich, enveloping sound; and great noise isolation.

  14. what about the white 3-leaf clover on a blue circular background?...nobody has been able to explain that one to me

  16. With all the food riots of the past few weeks I think Soylent green could be a timely movie to watch, got a copy and will watch it tonight. Quote: Soylent Green is a 1973 dystopian science fiction movie depicting a bleak future in which overpopulation, global warming, and the resulting severe damage to the environment have led to widespread unemployment and poverty. Real fruit, vegetables, and meat are rare, expensive commodities, and much of the population survives on processed food rations, including "soylent green" wafers.
  17. What I dont get is why is Tibet the poster child, the "cool" thing for people to protest about? Sudan/Darfur just isn't romantic enough to protest about like Tibet? hmmmm

  20. if you work 6 days a week (long way to go to the mountains for 1 day), if you live in Shikoku, if you are on call, if you suddenly have to work weekends and your ride to mtns was a weekend ride, if you have to do lots of overtime and are too burned out by the weekend, perhaps its a lack of work and hence cashflow....the list goes on
