  1. Robbins and Edwards. Guide to being Happy. Usually read when under stress situations or coming home after somethings gone wrong/and/or have been under the pressure cooker for most of the day.
  2. Yes, a huge gathering does also tend to be good. It would be great to spend your last moments with friends and loved ones. Perhaps spent the money on a gathering, the catering, the entertainment and the like. Top it off with really good sunny weather and that's a great last gathering. If it was raining otherwise, it's always great to set up for plan B, eg indoor type entertainment and/or gatherings. Further to add keeping the people under control and making sure that some people arent drunk off their heads!
  3. Used to play Soccer, Basketball and Touch Football at a club level. Now thosedays I just play Basketball/Indoor Cricket on a casual basis (indoor/social type level). Its not as serious as playing sport at a club level, yet still has the competitive feeling to it, especially when against friends and/or work mates.
  4. No picture unfortunately, but I know a close friend that recently installed computer fans as air conditioning for the back seats on his four-wheel drive back (at his home in the Philippines, when he was on hols) and it even works too.
  5. Just got a Dell desktop PC bundle for a friend. Have to say they are indeed of the top service, especially when the occasional hardware dies or burns. HP, hadnt known much people with the machines, but their other brand Compaq is very difficult to upgrade their machine, considering some of their parts are built in thus ruling out "upgrades" and being stuck with particular parts.
  6. There are cases where people of the same race say the same stuff to each other. For example, darker people seem to say stuff to other dark people, white people say the same to other white people and so forth. It's a good thing that racism did decrease with the outlawing of slavery nearly all over the world, but still there are organisations out there that feel the need to be "superior" to all the other races/nationalities/etc.
  7. Like the previous poster above said, its a bit of risk and a chance if you do decide to ask her out. I'm also a bit hopeless at reading signs at times. But from what it seems, she's definitely views you than more than a friend.Good luck.
  8. Australia, since the change in Prime Ministers from Howard to Rudd, Rudd decided to gradually pull out yet keep some of the Australian soldiers in Iraq, since he believed since the last government got themselves into this its better that they finish the job before they eventually pulled out. I would have to say the casualities on the Australian side of the war in Iraq are minimal, which is a bit lucky indeed as opposed to the other countries that were involved.
  9. Commodore 64 way back in the 80s, I remember the old tape drives, the 5.1/2 floppy drives and the old game cartridges. I was also fascinated at the old BASIC operating system which at the time was a lot more complicated than DOS, which at the time DOS was relatively new and microsoft at the time wasnt as big. Even went to the lengths of trying to learn the "BASIC" operating system type language, which iirc had to type a series of commands after a number.
  10. Have to agree with most of the other posters. I would go with the others suggestion of at least being friends with the girl for a couple of months. If the guy she was with does hook up with someone else in a few months, then ask yourself then whether if she's the girl for you or not. If its no, then it's no and would strongly suggest moving on if not staying friends by then.
  11. Generally when going through Paypal via ebay, like a previous replier said, there is no need to have a account and/or log into your paypal account when dealing with purchases via credit card through ebay. However, if you're a seller through ebay and/or a source of income for a business is through ebay, its strongly recommended to register for a paypal account of course! Instructions should be easy enough to follow when you register on their site.
  12. Also not a muslism either, but the 72 virgins thing is very hard to believe imo! Gotta have to laugh at that picture posted by a pervious poster, which is a funny take on the virgins in heaven belief. But then again, "72 dates" is what it could meant.
  13. Donate money to charity like many others would do, then spend it doing all the hobbies i like. A number of em involved, like wakeboarding, walking and even taking photos of favourite things. In some cases jump onboard for a ride.
  14. Have to say that Communism may look good on paper and it does look after citizens and such, however there seems to be a lot of corruption and or mistreatment when it comes to countries being run under the scheme. For example, the old Soviet Union and its agressive policy of forcing views in "partner" countries which at times look liked being a part of the "eastern block" rather than being independant.To further add, being the same does seem to be a bit boring and there tends to be a lack of variety at various jobs if its people doing the same thing, at the same pay rate and such. Sure, the payrate should be the same if its people in the same rank but jobs higher up of course would be a higher payrate than the rank below.
  15. I've seen hotdog rolls come in packs of six, eight and ten. As for Blind people dream, they may have lost sight when they wake up, but I tend to lean with a previous replier that they could see images (whether if its a clip or just a slideshow of images) when they are asleep.
  16. 5-6 hours tops during the week and about 8-9 during the weeekends. Do usually try to block the yawns/tiredness towards the end of a working day (which basically is monday to friday).
  17. Probably leaning towards against cloning Humans (i'm not that religious, but some people suggest that humans shouldnt be playing 'god'), but have to sit on the fence in regard to cloning animals and so forth. However, if positives do come out like helping sickness, or finding a cure for a disease that is hard to break, then i'm all for it.
  18. Too many predictions of when the World will end, especially the Nostradamus predictions. It may or may not end, people will never know and basically it remains a mystery. If differences can be sorted out, which will be hard, but not impossible to overcome especially between nations that are completely different. Kinda reminds me of the old East (Communism) v West (Democracy) battles back in the 80s. It was great to see Germany united back in the early 90s.
  19. I think its the girl/guy that isnt willing to let himself out to the person courting them are the hardest ones to figure out. Hadnt had much luck with relationships either, but still there has been some good ones around that both of us may have enjoyed during the time together.
  20. I've heard about the fishstick one many times before, and like many others said its one of the positives of being a guy because of that! As for small plane flying backwards, could the conditions (eg strong winds) have something to do with it which makes it go backwards?
  21. Russia does seem to be a big country with a strong economy to be a superpower once again, but many seem to not forget the days of the old "Soviet Russia" where the economy was controlled through communism. Granted, there are a few countries that are communist, but this seems to be either decreasing, or freedom seems to be a bit eased in a few of those countries.As for the next super power, I'd have to say the European nations that have the one currency "the euro" could be a good case of being a 'super power'. Tis seem a shame that the UK decided not to combine their currency under the Euro like the other european nations.
  22. Havent played on a private server yet. Well I had played on the official test servers on Horde and Alliance toons (eg Free S3 Arena gear ftw and people go into BGs/Arena since its a official designated test server for any future patches), yet I have to agree that people running around in T5 and T6 gear on private servers bought off a vendor sounds kinda 'noobish'.
  23. I'll have to sit on the fence here, but I wouldnt mind it if Marijuana was made legal for medical reasons only, provided there was a age limit to it in the same way as cigarettes and alcohol. Giving a kid marijuana for medical reasons could have issues considering the body is not fully developed at the time and/or easily be subject to misuse, in the same way drugs are misused by people in some countries right now.
  24. Milley will always tend to be known as a Kid's idol, regardless if she moves on. Look what happened to Hilary Duff and Australia's Nikki Webster, both tried to move on into other types of music and/or acting, yet both are better known as kid/child idols because many kids grew up listening to them and their music.
  25. Have to add another one. Pop singers continually getting into personal problems, most of us basically dont want to hear about it apart from the media maybe. Yes that includes Britney, Christina, Lindsay Lohan and so forth. The same could probably be said for some sports stars in the past eg Maradona (Soccer) and Shane Warne (Cricket).
