My bike is almost identical to that one (Trek but from two years ago and in red). I regret getting it because now I realized I just wanted a road bike and nothing more. These hybrid bikes cost just a bit less than the low end road bikes :indiff:

I bought some bloody mary baked beans, they have vodka in them!

Really? I have to ask, how do they taste? Doesn't sound like a good combo.
 
Not too sure yet I haven't tried them but I will let you know.

In the right kinds of food, alcohol can taste nice. I'm not sure about vodka and beens though. If I had any cooking skills, I'd probably use guinness in a lot of my meals.
 
New iTunes purchase:

Perfect to motivate me in my runnings sessions!

I know! 3 out of 3 for no blue bags with Tesco now. Ironically my housemates had 4 of them.

Huh, Blue Bag?

Another word for Viagra?

Nah :p Blue shopping bag, indicates they didn't have what I wanted so they swap it and put the new item in a blue carrier.
 
OOOOooooooooooooooooh, that makes sense.

Perfect delivery then. Pity you couldn't say it was an expectation of a MAJOR haul of viagra then.
 
If I ordered a major hault of Viagra, I don't think it would ever come.
 
Bad-dum-tish....

There's so many things wrong with that.

I dearly want to make a dirty statement, but there's no way I could make a dirty statement and NOT get banned for it.
 
Bought a road bike (I've already posted it in the biking thread), and some new tyres for it:

Just bought myself a IBM Thinkpad 600X. Ah, my childhood memories will thank me but... my wallet won't.

IBM Thinkpad 600X - $65.00 w/shipping:

I just earned $40 from selling a 320GB laptop HDD. So that will help pay for it. Once I my other 320GB 2.5" HDD sells I'll be getting the money I spent back(Actually a $24 profit over what I've spent for the dock and this laptop).

I've heard of whiskey and beans from cowboys cooking over a campfire. I'd imagine vodka wouldn't be too different.
 
Nikon D7000, an upgrade from the D5000 I've been using for a year, which was itself an upgrade from a D50 I'd bought a couple of years earlier from a friend.

The D5000 and the D7000 both came from eBay, and the D5000 is up for sale there now. I guess that means I'm reBaying it.

Advantages over the D5000: faster shutter, faster continuous shooting, faster flash sync speed, slightly higher megapixels, wider ISO range, more configurable options, in-camera AF fine-tuning, faster AF, more AF points for better continuous AF tracking, better movie mode (1080 vs 720,) autofocuses non-motorized lenses, meters more older lenses (should I find something on eBay I just have to have,) and 2 user memories where I can save my own sets of default settings which are selectable from the mode dial. Only had one outing with it, but so far it's [Biill & Ted Keanu Reeves voice] Most Excellent!
 
^ I am most jealous! I'll occasionally go into Best Buy and mess with the one they have on display, feels much better in my hands than my D5100.
 
Finally got my $50 gift card from my internet company for signing up with them. So I went to Best Buy and purchased:

Batman Begins Best Buy exclusive steelbook Blu-ray.
883929265367%3Bsize%3Dm2


Dark Knight Best Buy exclusive steelbook Blu-ray.

And something to keep me busy until GTA V comes out:

Not quite sure why it's taken me this long to purchase one of these, much better than faffing with manual stopwatches or using distance markers.

That's good going! Generally availability is somewhere around 97% so you're doing well.

Everybody used that face when I told them I bought it too...

My latest purchase:

1005-doritos-pickle-02.jpg
 
220px-Approved_Cover_-_Hands_All_Over.jpg

$15

Figured I'd check it out because of this, and I ended up liking most of the samples so I figured why not.
And

$8

On Google Play.


And I upgraded my phone data plan for $30 extra a month to include wifi tethering, so now I've got my PS3, Vita, 360, and Laptop all pulling data from my Razr that gets a fairly decent 3G around here.
