  1. @kimiecat ok, but if it lingers I'd have it checked out. An inflamed sinus begs for antibiotics.
  2. @kimiecat Sure it's not nasal cavity infection? I had that in a JP summer and the headache was ridiculous.
  3. Read: Unclefest 2000. RT @nictinworth: Free tram rides in #hongkong today folks - that includes the Peak Tram!
  4. Yes!! Fever has completely gone. On my way to office, @jebbery :-)
  5. @ascotsmanabroad @BibleAlsoSays couldn't get a clearer example that "prominent xtians" haven't got a clue what they're doing.
  6. @BibleAlsoSays genuinely curious: if the bible is the only source of xtian information, how can xtians be so sure it isn't written by satan?
  7. @c_j_lewis could you mail me at david.wieland@grayscale.com.hk with what you're looking for? I'll set you up with a quote.
  8. @francistan dude. It's a fragile microtechnological device made of glass. Depending on angle, 3 ft drop is lethal, case or no case.
  9. @jeansnow agreed, that game is brutal in every aspect.
  10. Yes that makes perfect sense, because everyone knows that region == language. #fail
  11. This is ridiculous. If i want to activate xbox gold on a Hong Kong machine, i must set language to Chinese. twitter.com/davidwieland/s…
  12. @nickeyk It's OK, Diablo games don't really expire. I'll hold out a few years until I've got some more time on my hands.
  13. @nickeyk Definitely will not get a copy - I have a full-time job and a kid. I have at most a few hours in the weekend to play some xbox.
  14. That did not stop me from buying Mass Effect 3, by the way. But at least that's not an enormous timesink.
  15. In fact since I got a family my intentions and desires to submerge in MMORPGs dissipated instantly, as if I suddenly 'grew up'.
  16. Diablo 3 puts me in an odd predicament. Having played D1 and D2, I would be ideal target group but will now never have enough time for it.
  17. @jebbery haha indeed. Sorry and thanks :-)
