    Something about safety at any rate.
    I looked at the tyre, the rotation arrow is arrowing in the correct rotational arrowification vector. Or something.

    2 for about $106 USD. The phone was about $20 and most of the cost was tax based on the original MSRP ($449! ). But they threw in free overnight shipping and activation, so it's all good. Why 2? One for my mother, whose RAZR V3 is dying and has the New Every 2 discount.

    It's pretty indestructible - it supposedly can handle as much as the more expensive G'zone. Plus it comes with a 5.1 megapixel camera with video function and a music player. Can you say awesome? As I don't text, I didn't get one with a QWERTY.

    It's a flip phone. The pictures don't tell the whole story, but you can flip the screen back for camera mode. Should be handy for exotic spotting.

    I guess if you like CDMA phones that's okay, I hate them. But then again I don't use smart phones, so I wouldn't know. I just need it to call. I kind of want a better camera on my phone, but that's no big deal.

    They'll waive your last three months if you resign in that time.

    And by then the new iPhone will be available

    I went to Olive Garden for their unlimited soup, salad and breadsticks deal. 6 bowls of soup, 4 baskets of breadsticks and a serving bowl of salad later and even if they did raise it that $6.99 price is looking pretty good.

    Also, since I'm not too full to move, I rented She's Out of My League for $1. This movie:

    A few things.

    First, America: Land of the Cheap, Home of the Fat. It must be said though, that my friend has The Economist's World in Figures Pocketbook and Canada is up there in terms of fatness. In 2010, I believe #1 was Lebanon. 7 bucks is outrageously cheap for that - The Olive Garden is crap, I guess, but still, that's mad. Your guys' food is so damn cheap.

    Secondly, the dude in She's Out of My League started on a Canadian TV show called [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popular_Mechanics_for_Kids"]Popular Mechanics for Kids[/ame] (which was pretty sick to watch when I was a wee lad) with none other than another moderately successful (but much better looking) Canadian actor, Elisa Cuthbert - i.e. Jack Bauer's hot and annoying daughter.

    Thirdly, I'm glad to see that you've classed it up. The Olive Garden is a step up from McDonalds.

    Bought this a week or two ago but never got around to posting it.



    65 with 30% taken off = under 50 even with 9.something% tax.

    1. I am much to snobby to eat at McDonalds. I eat at Jack in the Box and Burger King.

    2. I heart Cuthbert. Seriously. Too bad she has a thing for those wussy hockey players.
