What were you dreaming about?!

Grapes.

Why grapes though?

I'm not in control of what I dream about unfortunately

I think Grim's I.Q. is dropping.

Apart from its TV and that it flips open very quickly, what is special about a SoftBank phone?

I'm slowly starting to understand what a wonderful thing this phone is. Aside the basic stuff - TV, internet, camera, bar code reader (for paying for stuff) - it has a brilliant dictionary. What do you do when you see a new kanji? You don't know how the write it, so dictionary is useless. Wrong. Just point at the text, and the phone will scan it, separate the characters from each other, turn them into writing, and translate into English. You can also copy-paste the kanji writing to email you're writing since it's now in writing form (as opposed to scanned photograph).

There's thousands of Kanjis, and many of them look very similar and are very complicated.

I was using a 7 year old Nokia in Finland. I'm amazed by this sfuff. Wow.

That's cool Hung

Need some help guys. I know its been discussed here before but I can find it. What are the sites that buy your DVDs? I know there is music magpie but there are others too isn't there?
I've about 250 DVDs to get rid of, and quite quickly. I'd list them on Ebay or play trade but honestly, I don't have time to send them all off individually and spend time listing them. I'm moving out soon once my exams are over and its all a bit hectic and odd (If things get worse at home I'm moving in a couple of weeks). I can't really take them with me, because I'm moving 350 miles away for my final year then I'm moving over to Italy,. There is too many, there wont be enough room in either place and I don't watch them anyway. I know i wont get half as much as if i listed them on Ebay or such, but just gotta cut my losses. Have to prioritize the space and my 300 books are more important.

So yeah, help would be appreciated, thanks guys.

Nothing special, but came across this youtube vid of a 'shy' plant, and this was the same plant I saw and touched in Hong Kong last summer. You touch it, and it curls up. Pretty cool.

After a brief revival a few months back this forum sadly appears to be dying on it's arse again it's been like a morgue in here lately...

Pretty damn good russian MP3 site. You can find pretty rare songs, and instantly listen to/download them.

I think I might be buying a whole bunch of empty white dvd-covers for my 360 games.


Just changed it around to try it out, and I feel it just looks so much better than the green box.

LOL, what's the point?

To make em look better.

Exactly. There was a discussion on a dutch xbox forum going on, about which cases people preferred: the original casings, or the 'classic' casings. As you might know, many feel the 'classics' just look 'awful'.

Anyway, I said I think both packagings look less than great, and I openly questioned the decision by MS to put them into green casings. I said I felt maybe it would have looked better if they had gone for white casings, because of the color white also being in the console (the first 360's) itself, as well as it being in the design of the 'flap' itself (at the top).

So I grabbed a Studio Ghibli dvd, took out the sleeve, put in the Batman 'flap', and took a picture. Looks pretty good, although TBH, if I really would have designed it and would have needed to make the choice, I would have gone for a 'broken' white, same as the colour of the console and in their own sleeve-design.

As it is, we can't really buy broken white casings, so normal white will have to do. At least it looks better than the green and grey casings.

I had another recital today which went nicely overall and I think everyone enjoyed it, but I forgot some words That just made me angry with myself

You have Asperges, right!? So when you get mad at yourself, do you kinda flip out and do other people go 'WTF!?!?? What is sweet fluffy Grim doing!?!?', or are you still pretty much in control, and is it more 'internal'!?

Which songs did you sing btw!? It's great that you're going out on stage and doing stuff like this I know I'm absolutely crap at singing, so I wouldn't even bother trying. Plus I guess I'm too self-conscious for that kinda thing.

Yeah, I have mild Aspergers or something like that. I didnt go into a massive rage, I just go to myself and the guy next to me, "Fuck I messed up, made a mistake" or whatever, which makes me sad/pissed off and thats all I can see - I concentrate on how I think it went for ME more, which maybe we all do. I always think "I could have done this better" you know? As I was psyched and wanted everything to be perfect.

I sang these songs BTW:

Amsterdam (John Denver/Jacques Brel)
Take Me Home Country Roads (John Denver)
Mighty Quinn (Manfred Mann)
Hey Jude (Beatles)
A World Of Our Own (The Seekers)
Morningtown Ride (The Seekers)
Georgy Girl (The Seekers)
On The Other Side (The Seekers)
Stop Crying Your Heart Out (Oasis)
When You're Gone
Get Back (Beatles)
Bridge Over Troubled Water (Simon & Garfunkel)
Summertime (Porgy & Bess)
Somewhere (West Side Story)
