I currently have a Samsung app on my phone which is my tv's remote control. It's pretty handy in case anything happens to the original remote.

But yeah I don't know how Motorola can possibly think that a Razr will work on a touch-screen phone. Not the same as the original.

Had no idea WTF they were until I looked them up. They look very delicious actually.

They were until someone discovered a dead spider in one and they were pulled from the stores. I think I heard they're making a come back?

Totally showing my age here but this was the night before my last day of school, Year 12.

Not long turned 18, Australia back then was still mostly a beer culture - we sat up until 4am drinking beers waiting on the Olympic decision before heading into our last day of school a couple of weeks before the HSC, hungover but euphoric about winning the games. No we didn’t drive the next morning.

Ah, memories...

I remember I woke up and my dad (who watched the news and knew we won the bid) said "Who's hosting the Olympics?" and being a young tacker I had no idea what he was on about. So I said... "Ummm... Sydney?" and he cheered lol.

I wouldn't mind trying one - they look pretty good.

Remember when office workstations used to look like this (depressing really):





ABW all the way.


I prefer to be as secluded as possible when I'm working.. makes it easier to get into that weird zone when you're not dealing with others :yum: the best work comes from the weird zone

I know I was there last week. The day went pretty quickly :grinning:

BTW there's this chick I used to work with who practically lived in that weird zone... she used to crack me up.

Linda... if you're reading this... I <3 you chick!
