were you on a hot tin bus when you lost the signal? don't worry Cat, I'm sure there's an app that could help out.

Interesting points David. People may have bought more petrol than usual at the other stations if they were worried about having less places to buy it from too.

I wander where this will end up...brilliant honaloochieB...

anyway, *looks serious* lets convert sugar to diesel... *predicts* when we are queuing up to buy advanced biofuels, they will no doubt protest about whatever crop types have been used, whether they are not-from-food crops and so on...

petrol station (guilt) flowers - god help whoever receives these charcoal bricks for the BBQ - very handy er...stamps and possibly insurance too?

[quote=stevebailey Why do people that don't like the iphone constantly go on to forums and bitch about them? if you don't like it don't buy one.] I may be wrong but.....I got the sense that it was directed towards the mass marketing (brain-washing) and how people may have been influenced into thinking they 'ought' to have them as opposed to just bitch because they don't like them.

[quote name=Not sure what they hope to achieve but enjoyed the irony of the unemployed volunteers unloading the fence panels from a van, presumably running on petrol/diesel.] one of the things they hope to achieve is awareness about future offshore drilling plans in the Arctic and yes, that is ironic, it would have been more effective if they'd used an electric car (GM Voltec anyone?) let's see if this has changed public attitude and helped people link their daily energy use to its demand (i'm not holding my breath)

anyone tried that new product, the i-wand? it?s a plastic wand that you drag over your photos on an i-pad and it produces a 3D hologram of the picture which you can then display and manipulate in free space* *has other uses, apparently

I'm never sure if I'm doing it right, different types need to be treated differently, there's so much to remember. Polished wood is lovely although doing the floors is definitely a man's job...in my opinion anyway.

really this works both ways (many ways) on a public forum and from reading this thread I didn't get that KidKruger cannot tolerate a different perspective, quite the opposite in fact (MY opinion of course). odyssey asks a very pertinent (there goes that word again... tee hee) question that some constructive advice might be helpful. this is MY personal view, I don't consider wearing a low-cut top to be 'empowering' myself . I do think that there's a good reason to dress smartly and appropriately for whatever business you are in (this applies to men and women alike). yes by all means dress in something that makes you feel great, boosts your confidence but I would find it difficult to take someone (male or female) too seriously if I personally thought that they were dressing deliberately provocatively all the time at work. one hot day I had to wear a hard hat, a reflective jacket and boots :-$ to go into a quarry beside a beach. I felt like a right idiot next to the skimpily dressed and the topless bathers (but company rules had to be respected).

You what? I don't remember saying anything about freckles? But then again maybe this katie1936 did ? (lol) xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -x-x-x- x0x0x0x0x0x0x0

its eyes, smile and then .......what?...... 'that something you cannot put into words'* (I'm an old romantic at heart) PS. yes dimples are very, very lovely ;) *btw, a lot of my female friends are 'buns' first too so I will concede to be in the minority here

PS. I think women look at eyes more than anything else...
