  1. There are such things as sensitive, shy, good boys you know. I was one of them. I didn't take advantage of a few situations when I was a young'un.... regretted it but my moral compass told me to.
  2. Not particularly much that... just a few weeks stock?
  3. Not only was he exceptionally stupid for leaving it in his bag, but stupid for doing it in the first place.
  4. Here's a preview http://www.lulu.com/preview/paperback-bo...recipes/4956212 I wonder if there are instructions on how to produce the best sperm? Some of those recipies "Cum Creme Caramel" "Spunky Candied Pecans" "Pungent Aioli"
  5. Hello, Me and my friend where thinking of visit the Hakuba skiresort next winter 2010 (13-16 days). Couple of questions poped up during our planning. - What is the best time to visit for serious powder? Mid-Jan > mid-Feb, take a read through these http://www.snowjapan.com/e/daily/hakuba-now.php - What is the best time to visit for a good powder / sun ration? In the beginning of march? Maybe but no guarantees, see last year!! - What are the most common holidays for japanese people in the winter time (if exsists) New year, weekends, national holiday
  6. Anne is too busy with filming 30 weakest links a day
  7. There's no amazon.oz? I wonder what they do for packages that are not sent out with the express. They often get sent fairly quickly, it just takes an age for them to arrive. Got to wonder if they don't just leave them for a day or two. Would really be interested to know how that all works.
  8. Frost / Nixon was pretty good. Good commentary as well by Ron Howard on the deeveedee
  9. Outrage, really. I never heard anything and while I dont spend all my time watching Jmedia, Im sure I would have heard something....
  10. I know someone who goes on and logs in to tripadvisor simply to post reviews of his place - ranging from great to overwhelmingly wonderful. Of 18 reviews of his place, 14 were written by him. Knowing this it has put me off taking them seriously.
  11. Love this: The concert promoters for Michael Jackson's planned shows at the O2 Arena in London today offered fans the option of a "specially created" souvenir ticket rather than a refund. AEG Live said full refunds were available for all legitimately bought tickets, but suggested some fans of the singer, who died on Thursday, would prefer to receive a ticket "inspired and designed by Michael Jackson for the fans" and made with a "special lenticular process". They are not able to have both.
  12. Had one of them delish it was. Tasters as you might expect a mos burger with a bit of wasabi sauce on it.
  13. Apparently one of the main features is "a bit better than vista".

The ability to discern the provable facts from the dross. Well it's good to see that everyone is so expert at doing this and obviously more intelligent enabling them to know exactly what is fact and what

That's where a quality education can help you to clear the chaff from the corn. Definitely. But unfortunately the highest quality education can't guarantee your ability to do that clearing. And in the process of doing that clearing, the memory of the chaff or possible chaff gets imprinted into the memory and lingers. If only the human brain could have a selective delete function!
  16. What you are saying sounds very 'ideal', doesn't it. Not everyone wants to become totally consumed by a research quest - and totally consumer is what it would do in terms of time and emotional energy. In my relatives case, they decided that they wanted to get on with their lives as normally as possible without cluttering their brains with the inevitable misinformation that they would inevitably consume in some quest for 'the truth'. They are much more at peace with the way they have chosen. They are not just talking to one doctor, but a whole army of them (it seems). Each doctor a
  17. Quote: I hear and understand your point YYY, but it is not knowledge that caused this - it was lack of knowledge. Well, more like it was incorrect information that caused it along with not wanting to input incorrect information. Were you not though in your comments talking about 'information being power and something that you cannot get too much of'? 'Knowledge' is of course a different thing. Quote: Using the internet discerningly is very important Well it is extremely easy to say that isn't it..... Quote: I would rather know and understand my illness inside and out
