Wonder if this is true for motorcycles as well?

Cyclists who wear protective helmets are more likely to be knocked down by passing vehicles, new research from Bath University suggests.

It just goes to show if you are a wimp and wear a helmet, you’ll be taken out.

I discovered this hair at the age of 25. Some other people have in fact noticed this anomaly that exists on my scalp. Of course at the moment I have no hair as I am running around in the mud somewhere (hehe wonder if I am, wrote this a few weeks ago) 😉

Ok, well here is the good news – I did some math that’s making things look pretty good for my brown locks.

• 1 hair at the age of 25.
• The average human head has 150,000 hairs.

Therefore I calculate that at this rate it will take 3 million 750 thousand years before I go completely grey and by that time they will have cured it.
Yes, there is a potential margin of error – I did not include beard or “other” hairs. However I can shave any of those affected areas.

Phew… ❗

Use and abuse!

I don’t give a damn!

Je m’en fiche!

Slightly more vulgar – in keeping with L’avant Poste tradition:

I don’t give a f-!

Je m’en branle!

I’m a geek so I always travel with my technology and laptop in hand. I travel alot and have had flights canceled and delayed – laptops are great for those situations too. Besides writing Myspace comments from Hong Kong is just cool.
Here is a list of airports in the United States that offer wireless internet access and how much it costs (some of them are free – even big ones like Phoenix, Orlando, Las Vegas, Houston, and Ft. Lauderdale).

And some not-so-big ones:

• Boise, Idaho
• Charleston, South Carolina
• Richmond, Virginia

Sorry DC residents, National and Dulles don’t even offer the service. There are some “unorthodox” methods (it’s worked at Dulles for me before) but I don’t want to get arrested thank you very much.

It will cost you 3 beers for the information 😛

My friend’s cat taken some time ago.

Poor little guy – I think this was before a trip to the animal hospital for some surgery. Well, let’s hope anyway.

If you opt to not have paper bills sent to your house and just trust that you’ll be responsible enough and remember to pay online here’s a warning:

You’ll see an additional $11 charge on your next month’s bill. The charge is labeled ‘Other Charges’.

😐

Last month when I saw this I decided to call and find out what the extra charge was for…otherwise they won’t tell you if you don’t check.

I think that’s crap – you’re actually saving them money on paper costs. I couldn’t be bothered to call and complain, but I think a bitchy enough voice (you know who you are) will get that charge right off there.

fyi
