Personal record


h1 Friday, March 28th, 2008

Shit is expensive in London. As such, I have set a personal high yesterday on the amount spent on a meal.

Dinner for two at Ume. Sushi. Sake. Waggyu Beef. 463 quid before tip. Good night and good luck.

Airborne is rubbish


h1 Friday, March 14th, 2008

As I had written about before, Airborne is rubbish. If you still think it does anything, be clear that all you are doing is buying a very expensive multi-vitamin with no additional protection against getting the cold. Since my lady didn’t listen to me, we have probably spent over $50 in the past year buying this dream.

The good thing now is that I can claim some of that money back. There’s a form you fill out and you can make a claim. I still never understood why people would put a magic potion created by a school teacher down their throats and be surprised that it does jack shit.

Also mentioned here.

Romanian police training


h1 Thursday, March 6th, 2008

Situation:
Apparently in Romania they still have traffic cops that divert traffic. Unfortunately, they do not do a good job at it and have been causing inprecise movements and such.

Solution:

Send all the male cops to ballet class so that they can train to be more graceful. Yeah….that’s the solution. And yes, it is a much better solution than deploying automated traffic lights like the rest of the world because you have a cop doing ballet movements in the middle of the street.
