I estimate that, if I really understand the problem, it is about 50% likely that we will be done in five weeks (if no one bothers us during that time).
I promise to have it all done five weeks from now.
It seems Adidas are going to team up with Lucas Arts to come up with some truly brilliant stuff.

As I alluded to in my previous post, I was eyeing the HTC hero. On discovering the exclusive price that www.singtelshop.com was giving (298SGD), I was ecstatic. However, I wanted to wait 1 day for me to think about it, so it wouldn't be an impulse buy.
When I checked again in the evening, it was sold out. Infuriating. What one cannot have, one wants more. And I was pretty determined to get one as soon as it was available.
A cursory check into various forums, indicated that there would be a restock within the next few days though no one had any idea if the price would remain as such.
Surprise, surprise. On an obsessive, compulsive check today, it was back in stock! I have since placed an order for a white version of the HTC hero that will be delivered on 1st Oct night.
I am beside myself with excitement.
Surprise surprise. The HTC Hero with a 2 year plan with Singtel cost just 298SGD. Think I might get mine tomorrow...
As previously mentioned I've got a couple of things that I've been eyeing.
A trip to Hong Kong allowed me to purchase one of them, the Tokina 11-16 ATX. And it was really much cheaper then what I would have to pay for in Singapore. Had to search almost the whole of Hong Kong island for it as Mong Kok shops just did not carry it at all. But very happy with my purchase if a but burnt in the wallet.
Also, Sony has finally played nice and come up with a new iteration of their gaming console, the PS3 Slim. This means that prices for the PS3 will drop and more surprisingly and interestingly, the PS3 Slim isn't as expensive as the PS3 when it first came out. Need to think about this one, but I might want to get this when I have to go overseas again.
Additionally, the HTC hero was finally released in Singapore on September 4th. Suggested retail price is about 800+++ with suggestions that signing a 2 year plan will drop this price to around 600++. Again another toy to lust after as my phone contract is about up.
My wallet weeps gently.
- TYPEWRITER is the longest word that can be made using the letters on only one row of the keyboard.
What about pepperroot, pepperwort, perpetuity, pirouetter, prerequire, pretorture, proprietor, repertoire, repetitory? I’m sure we can think of even more words, and I’m only using the top row of keys on a QWERTY keyboard for those ones.
Warning! For Star Wars geeks only.
Was read Star Wars: Legacy of the Force by Aaron Allston (why do so many people have names that practice alliteration?!) and came across this interesting easter egg.
On page 232, line 4, was this gem
"He's fine," Leia said. "Han shot first."
