TV Discussion Fisto's Disco: The LACWAC Social Thread

I've never watched the weather channel. Infact, I very rarely watch weather forecasts at all these days. I find all the information I need is on the Internet.

Well, a rather obvious This Day In History today...

This Day In History....

August 31st;

1997 - Diana Princess Of Wales is killed in a car crash in Paris.

 

What's everyone got planned for the weekend, then?

I'm off to a black tie ball with my GF tomorrow night! Should be fun!

 

Pictures!

Good times, G? I had nothing nearly as exciting on. In fact, I had nothing; I was just chilling with friends. Brought a few of the old video games out, too. Micro Machines will always remain hilarious.

 

No pics, unfortunatly... I don't like my picture being taken.

Anyway, its was a fun night. Afterwards we stopped in a hotel, which was very

 

You're not alone in that. I was just seeing if you would. Not a worry.

A spiffy hotel, eh?

 

Yeah, it was an awesome hotel.

Only thing is I've woken up this morning with the tell tale signs of an ear infaction. Pain my left ear and a raised temperature.

 

Ah, ear aches and the like are always so highly annoying. I hope the temperature doesn't turn into anything serious or even put you down sick. Never a good way to start a lovely week.

 

I've suffered with ear problems ever since I was born. I've had something like 30 operations on my ears since I was a kid.

 

This day in history....

September 3rd;

1939 World War Two beings as Britain declares war on Germany. France follows 6 hours later quickly joined by Australia, New Zealand, South Africa & Canada

 

Lest we forget.

Thirty?! Wow man, I didn't realise. How is it today?




I see a 'new' banner today, too.

 

I've still got quite a bit of pain and a mild fever. If its no better by Friday I'll go and see my doctor.

This banner is a 2ndQuest Production.

 

I like the ingeniousness of the ad holders. Rest up my friend!





Hey, G. Did you hear that?

was it...

the sound of footsteps?

Is somebody else approaching

this thread?

(naturally, we wear ugg boots, so our feet don't make a sound.)

(At least, I think G does)

'cos I do.

 

lol, is it worth anything to say I do read this thread? I don't post that much because I don't want to totally spam it

I'm off to the Isle of Wight this Saturday, mint! Haven't been there since 1979. That makes me sound old, doesn't it?

 

Sweet. What are you sailing/flying to there for?

Are you saying that what you normally post is spam?

 

Yep.

And can I just say to all users, don't be afraid of posting here. Even if its completely random and pointless, thats what I'm here for.

 

How am I not random and pointless, G?!

The only point I ever make is that people should eat lamingtons.

 

Just a holiday. We're sailing over on the ferry.
Off-season = nice and quiet (ie cheaper ) Already scoped out how many toy shops there are and where they are on the island. If the TAC Wave 4 hits while I'm there, it'll be a hard choice between SW toys and beer. Like trying to choose a favourite child!

Not intentionally, just my opinions are

 

You know, I was half-expecting you to say something about toys...

 

Why choose? Beer is a SW toy, as long as you're playing "Mos Eisley Cantina". It helps with the game if you also have a friend willing to get his arm chopped off by grampa's laser sword.

 

Bonjour.

How's everybodys weekend going then?

 

It was a long weekend here!

I'm sure some of you heard about the APEC business down here . . .

*ahem*

Blue Milk.

 

No? Whats all that about then?

 

http://www.apec.org

Many world leaders were here and such. So I assumed that the world knew about it. But I suppose it is only the Asia-Pacific part of the world now that I think about it, so there's no reason why you would have had heard anything about it where you are, G. Security measures were through the roof during the weekend and as such Friday was actually made a public holiday for everybody in metropolitan Sydney. At least, the majority of it.

 

All the news coverage here at the moment is about Madelrinr McCann. Don't get me wrong, I feel deeply sorry about whats happened and wish they would find her, or at least find out what happened to her, but the blanket, wall to wall coverage is getting really tedious now.

 

I didn't realise that was still going on. It was mentioned briefly here about - I'm not sure - a month ago? Two months? Anyway, I haven't heard a single thing since those initial kidnapping mentions.



Curious; what music do people usually listen to when you're at your computer? Posting at forums. Writing. Of course, if you're at work I guess it's likely the answer is nothing.
