You mean you guys don't wear seersucker every sunday?
Nope. Nike (UK) and Addidas (UL) don't use it for their products.

Well, there is the exception for when the Southern Baptist churches have their annual old-fashioned Sunday.
 
Birthday present from my girlfriend:

So, my TV came. It's HUGE!!!!!! :lol: Didn't think it would take up my entire dresser.

This is a pic of it playing Transformers right out of the box:



Black levels are incredible.
 
Daaaaammnn… did somebody steal your closet? :lol:

Gotta keep the lights on at this place. 👍


Every other year I'd be buying premium around this time, but now I've got Lifetime. May as well support the site and get some swag. :sly:
 
Oh yes

Couldn't wait for this to come out, IMAX footage included.

👍

Scaff

I have this coming for Christmas but I rented it out yesterday hoping it would come with the bonus disc aswell but the fool at Blockbusters forgot to put it in. This a must own Blu Ray.
 
For an early Christmas present , I bought myself Blu-ray versions of The Dark Knight and Batman Begins 👍 👍 .

On the other hand, my mum bought one of these:

... 2.0 litre turbo with paddlepops 👍. Brilliant! It should be arriving next Wednesday. Cannot wait to drive it! :D
 

I love this pic, really does emphasize the hugeness! Complete with a slight angle so it looks like its engulfing you with HD'ness! :sly:

Thats sweet! Did she get it in white? I love those new EL effect style lights all the german auto makers seem to be using.

Eric.

Since my last pair of gloves apparently suck, I just ordered a new pair.

Guess what, Pako? They're not black! :lol:

Hey, what do you know.... For what it's worth, I would have got black gloves. :D


Well, to add to my existing 4 gigs, I got another 4gig kit for 8gb's of ReaperX Ram:

Installed, the heatsink fins look damn impressive. I'm honestly surprised that they even fit side by side. The heat sinks are actually touching each other which I thought would be an issue, but doesn't seem to bother. Performance so far is good. Running at 5-5-5-18 timings and at 900mhz, I'm able to run my FSB at 1800mhz for an effective CPU Overclock of 1000mhz from stock on my Q9550 quad core. :D

Can you let me know how you like them TB? I'm in the market for a new pair of gloves and those would match my coat pretty well.
 
Is that the new Audi A3 cabriolet? I saw one the other and was very impressed.

Yeah, it's the new convertable version of the A3. I wasn't expecting much, but after a test drive of that engine, I really loved it. It's got a great bunch of features on it, too... because it's a demo model (and all for a good price!). I haven't seen one on the road yet... but apparently we are the third people in Perth to own one, so it's no wonder.

We chose quite an interesting colour, too. Not white... but a nice metallic grey which turns into a faint eggplant colour in sunlight :). The interior is beige... which worked out to be a very nice colour combo. 👍

@Robin: I'm pretty sure those awesome rear tailights come standard with the car, but if you want LED headlights... thy are an optional AUD$2100 extra :scared:. Which means the headlights alone are worth more then my entire car :lol:. But because we bought a slightly used demo model, the LED's came with the car. 👍

A girl (obviously) at work has one in black which doesn't look to bad for a convertible hatch. Any pale colour, and especially white, make them look like a bathtub on wheels.

:grumpy: There's just no pleasing some people! :P

I had to go with these as I know they'll match my jacket.

Can do. 👍

I went out to snow blow a few days ago and every one of my fingers was cold. That's just not acceptable, obviously. Since these match my jacket, which is rated to -40°, they should be good.
