I've seen enough Hentai to know where this is going. Octopuses? Cephalopods? Excellent! And Next... SQUID :)

True. Also, spinning hard drives takes power - AFAIK SSHDs are rather more efficient. If you care about extending your battery lifetime, it's good to try to run it most of the way down before recharging, rather than running on battery a little and then topping up. Unfortunately the latter is how many folks use laptops if they don't think to do otherwise. Cellphone manufacturers have it easier, as most people only recharge their cell when it needs it - which turns out to be exactly the right thing to do. True again. Also, don't let anyone sell you anything based on processing power - you simply don't need it for school/email/web browsing. And more horsepower = less battery life :) Anything you buy should have more than enough space for school/email/web use. Pics, video and music are what really take up space, but an external drive is a good option for those unless you really want to carry them with you... Also, don't pick it up or hold it by the screen. Also also, no matter how much it pisses you off, don't put your fist through the screen. Apart from anything else, it hurts. I speak from experience :) As others have suggested, netbooks are cheap, tiny and will be able to do what you want. The only drawback to them is a lack of screen real-estate, if you care about that.

So, now that I've got there... done! Take it away, gentlemen...

I've been to see Gina a couple of times at ALO's west-end location. There's been quite a bit of discussion of her talents here and here, but I thought it was about time she had a proper reco thread. Here it is :) So, now you've read those threads, what more do you want to know about Gina? She's a lovely person - she'd be great to spend time with just to talk to, even if you did nothing else. She's sexy as hell. She gives an excellent massage - she seems to take it as a personal mission to get *all* the knots out, which is awesome. She can tease with the best of them (and will do, if that's what you like). And when she's done teasing... yes, she can do that with the best of them too :icon_mrgreen: Definitely recommended. I'll be back for sure.

Is this a regular thing? It strikes me that there may be a market for "Mondays under the blanket with Malika". It also strikes me that you may need a bigger blanket :)

Angel's Touch is in the Merivale/Hunt Club area, and I'm pretty sure CMJ is around there too. Which isn't too far from Barrhaven. Sensual Erin is in the west of town, and Paradise is in Bells Corners; they're the closest that I know of to Stittsville. There may, of course, be others that I don't know of :)

Those look very uncomfortable. They must, therefore, be highly fashionable. Am I right? Hell, what do I know about it... I'm wearing crocs right now :)

I use both, but quite differently. CERB is something where I log in, see what's being talked about, join in, and then log out. FB is something I tend to keep running all the time and dip into far more often, but for less long. And twitter is a good way of keeping up with things/people/organizations I'm interested in (so's FB, but I'd prefer that FB not know too much about my interests, so I withhold that information from them). Does MySpace still exist? :)

Congratulations, Castle!

Innovations in airline safety briefings Actually, I have to say I think this is pretty cool. Anything that gets people to actually pay attention to the safety briefing has to be worth trying...

IANAL, but I think it'd be highly unusual for any new law to be retroactive.

I'd have thought that warning people would have been good and sufficient reason. It's always been considered fun (by some) to try and inflict the grossest corners of the Internet on the unsuspecting. I don't think that'll change, alas.

Successful troll is successful ;) But I'm sure there were a quite a few people who had no clue that a reaction was required, so at least my aim's good... And now for something completely different:

A classic example of things that, while both being delicious individually, just don't work together. But by all means go for it...
