    I want to buy a guitar

    150 is a bit cheap, the kneck will bend and the thing will be useless ina few years. i say 400 goes a long way, then get a cheap 15watt solid state marshal amp for like $150. electrics are much more fun, less cumbersome, nicer to sit on the couch and play while watching tv :P i started...

    New Radiohead - 10th Oct.

    Anyone that says they prefer kid a to ok computer/bends is lying. Radiohead's strengths have always been with guitar, just look at track 9. And the live versions of Arpeggi BEFORE they took the fucking guitar out of the end climax on the retail release.

    Loveless

    i like all kinds of music, alternative experimental stuff, but i downloaded that "to here knows when" song, and there are no fucking notes! there's no music there i'm sorry. i'd love to see the sheet music for that song. The composer probably jerked off a guitar and then fed it through...

    Coles supermarkets 1 on 1 interview

    i honestly have no idea why people are not only willing but dedicated to jumping through the ridiculous hoops of coles' application process. I mean, ffs its a retail job, goto any store in a mall talk to the manager for 15mins and you'll get a job that pays better and is more enjoyable...

    You Know Your From Sydney If..

    too right, i didn't know what the shire was until a couple years ago. People from vaucluse, bellevue hill and mosman don't carry on like they do, whilst these places actually have something to be pretentious about. cronulla is like an hour from the cbd, what a joke.

    iMac or Alienware.

    Yeah, they don't break down at all, mac's aren't subject to the laws of physics, especially ipods, they never break down, ever.

    iMac or Alienware.

    msy even do assembly and testing, plus you can buy it without the operating system, saving money. + When you've already got like 2x 200gb hard drives + dvd burner you save money by using that stuff in the new one.

    iMac or Alienware.

    if you're buying a desktop, why would you buy an alienware. It's the same crap as every other computer, including the insides of the mac except in a fancy case. The whole point of going the pc route is you get to buy the components at a much cheaper price than the mac. You can still buy...

    stock market correction

    Some people in industry view junior minerals explorers in the same light as the IT startups of the tech-boom. I'd be wary with these small companies. I'm more a fan of explorer/producers, because they have a proven track record and have an income stream its not pure speculation. PNA comes...

    President of Iran humiliated at Columbia University

    good on the iranian president for having the guts to come to university to speak. That's more than can be said for george bush, tho condoleeza did goto usyd albeit under complete secrecy. Much like i admire joe hockey for doing an IR debate in manning in front of a very unreceptive audience
