A guy walks into a hairdresser and says here's $200, give me the best 'messed up' style you can do.

PS: I really like that bike.

It's consistent with the pattern of trying to be unique by recylcing trends of an era gone by.

Yes, they were big in the 70's but were pretty uncool by the mid to late 80's.

Late 80!s? Ouch. I had one in the late 70's but smaller, with no gears.

The slate thing's dock has HDMI out, USB and gigabit LAN ports so this is theoretically possible.

re. smallish laptops i have been using a Toshiba R830 which has a 13 inch screen and is light as fark, find myself using it more than i thought i would!

Oh, Eric Ripper. Can't even sound convincing when stating he'll be "leading the party to the 2013 election" on Seven News.

Just get rid of him.

Fuck. Air Asia just withdrew their KL > London route effective 1st April

But looks like they will be paying for me to go on a different airline, should work out then if they do, because the next airline is twice as much and has a stop at both KL and Mumbai lmfao

Really. Why?
I thought there would be lots of people looking for a cheaper option to get to London from SE Asia/Aus.....

acc521 · January 12th, 2012, 01:16 PM

Damn. I guess the route wasn't popular enough. I think people are still unwilling to spend the lengthy time on a budget airline.

Personally I just couldn't bear the thought of going X-Treme Budget for a long haul flight.
