Just came back from the local bank where they asked me - and most others it seems - to fill out a quite detailed questionnaire with some very personal questions on it, mostly financial ones.
Cheeky buggers if you ask me, I told them where to go.
Anyone else been asked to do something like that by their bank?

Anyone ever eaten it?
I did at an enkai the other day, only found out after I had eaten it. Tasted quite sweet though I am not keen on the idea of eating horse. (Irrational probably, I know).
Is it a speciality of Nagano?

Or on the road, on the train, business trips etc.

I'm the opposite. I would very much like to be able to be with family.

They do sound very similar to my non-musician ears. The big question though is why didn't they all copy something a bit more exciting than that?

Good lookers them

Work - work deals with all that.
Personal - not enough to worry about!

They have great paws. Just look at the size of them!

When can I expect my cheque?

Bigger volume for me, as long as the price rise isn't just an excuse to add more so to speak

ZZ Top!
Some of those songs still sound fresh.

I usually go on recommendations from friends. Always a good way to choose between a few places yuo don't know. As for kind of place, if I'm paying I like somewhere decent. El cheapo doesn't do it for me and certainly not Ms Clock who likes to go as luxury as possible.

Good one that. Maths was never that fun.
-
Heard it a few times, much better than St Anger. Some good songs on there. Didn't notice distortion/loudness other than what you expect from Metallica!
-
Donuts sound good to me. Best when very warm just made.

What do men do with engagement rings that they have bought for a proposal* when the woman says no?
(* presuming they do this in real life and not just in the movies)

Lars explained that St Anger had to be utter crap in order for this new one to be fairly decent. He then put down that well used 'book of cliches to use for your new album' guidebook.

There are some plain weird sandwiches on sale in some places here.
Last night I saw a potato salad and spagetti sandwich. On the usual lifeless, tasteless bread they insist on using of course.
I remember a curry and egg one as well a while back.
Any other bizarre combinations?
And why can't they get rid of that awful 'bread'? I'm sure the masses would appreciate some quality bread as the basis for their butties.

Looks like she is dragging him back up in the polls, more like!

A week would be enough for me in that area. 4-5 months? I can see some people spendinga lot of time exploring the region, but that seems way too much time to me! I suppose everyone has different needs..

Did they really need to research that?!
Quote:A pint and a half of beer can produce the effect – and in men it may last 24 hours.In the study, volunteers were randomly allocated a vodka and lime or a similar tasting non-alcoholic drink.
About half an hour later, both groups were asked to rate the attractiveness of 20 male and 20 female faces on a seven-point scale.
Those who had been drinking alcohol scored the faces about 10 per cent higher than the non-drinkers.
When the groups were tested again the next day, the men who had drunk alcohol still gave pictures of women higher ratings than those who had not.
Dr Marcus Munafo, an experimental psychologist who led the study at Bristol University, said: "The findings are important because of the role drink plays in, for example, unsafe sex." It is thought alcohol stimulates the striatum, an area of the brain important in attraction.

"Pubs are for smokers and drinkers"
Evidently not when smoking is banned from them.
Help me choose my new watch!
