		Your Sexuality
		
		no not really.Ive got friends who know and friends who dont. and my parents definatly do not know. I lie everyday about my sexuality. its a vicsious circle but it spares me beef. Unfortunatly there is this social stigma which comes with the gay package, some people are good with dealing with it but me, I'm terrible with it, I care what people think. too much. You get the omg your gay get away from me, to the aww ive always wanted a gay best friend, both of those I hate as much as each oher. I just wrap my self in a huge circle of lies and no one has to find out. What can I say, I'm a good actor. I'm the least camp gay guy you will meet, I have my moments, but yeh straight acting ftw.

 I can't believe I cant come! this just sums up my life. some one decided to inconvenience my day by wacking on a load of training at topman. I'll set some one a text to check your all having a good time.Have fun fanpeeps.- Thorpe Park - Opening Day Meet Up
 Basically, not sure how likely it is I'm going to get the 16th off of work as were really short staffed in topman as it is. I'm gunna try my best over the next coming weeks but I dunno. 50:50 at the moment. =[- Random

 I saw the advert for that - looked like a godzilla remake at first but obviously didnt at the end cos we never saw what 'the thing' was. Looks amazing - cant wait. Although the advert didnt make me feel sick. Confused but not sick.I dont understand how it can.- Random
 So far the adverts have been pretty truthful - like the one where you can start using it the minute you buy it. In design, well its arguable each way but id rather have a sleek, glossy mac, simple with barely any wires than a fugly thing my parents have got with about a million ports we dont used and more wired than is necessary. Plus now don't have to fork out of a chunky webcam and microphone, bluetooth dongle and in some cases a wireless card. Also little features such as the magnetic power cord is such a god send. As for old technology, my friend still uses her ibook and doesnt feel she needs to upgrade - and as far as I'm aware she can still buy software for it. But what really makes me love apple is that windows relys on everything else to run. for a start you need to buy a PC - Dell/PB/HP/Compaq etc. not a make called microsoft. Then you need to buy antivirus - Norton/McAfee. Then you need to get a cam - Logic, etc. It goes on. With mac you buy a mac and each essential you may need seems to be covered by apple - thus you know it will work. And it does.but yeh, whatever float your boat.- The News
 I'm sure youve all heard, but a British Airways flight had to crash land at heathrow today - really too me by surprise because on the radio it just described as an emergency landing, and the plane looks pretty mangled :SCompletely lost its power apparently and he had to glide that plane down- Random

 My experience so far -2004 Family Pc - Had to take it backwards and forward to PC world, had to buy about six different packages including virus protection and spyware - which then still didnt do its job as we had to go back yet again (we should not PC world was about 9 miles away, 18 there and back) to get some fix. Ok its pretty old now but its the largest pile of cack ive ever seen. Doesnt do its job propperly, constantly problems with printers and scanners, internet going down because it couldnt hack the router.2005 - LaptopBought my own laptop, again from the word go problems. The wifi didnt work, got that fixed, and then it wouldnt network propperly - by a stroke of luck I got the printer networked but never got file sharing going. Agin I must have gone backwards and forwards about 10 times to get things sorted, PC world was the only helpline I knew of for windows were about as helpful as a skinned sheep doing a river dance in a puddle of calpol. Had to get a bluetooth dongle, and within a year it started making noises like a 19thcentury locomotaive - pretty much ran on coal.Mac - only problem so far is the fact my greasy finger show up on the black surface, but even that was covered with a handy cloth. Its so compatible, files were transfered easily, handy features like spaces, spotlight and things like garageband, imovie, bluetooth, dictionary, dashboard and stuff all included. And I got iwork thrown in with it so I didnt have to pay for that. As for virus protection - don't need it. oh and I got a free printer/scanner.So all in all, ok mac was just over a grand, but in terms of software, hardware, petrol and sanity - much more cost effective. And the speed of it is a dream. I'm not saying mac don't have its faults, but by god its significantly minimal compared to the stress of my old system.EDIT: and I guess its like most things really, I'm talking in terms of the new macbook air, its got its own market - just because it doesnt apply to us, doesnt mean its pointless, businessmen, people on the go, backpackers who probably don't need a hefty mass in their luggage it will be a godsend. And in the end of the day its just apple being inovative, everyone wants smaller and thinner and faster, eventually macbook air will be the normal size.- Thorpe Park - Opening Day Meet Up
 prepare for air- Random
 Yeh its a shame they havent included it - but maybe its the the begining of the death of the CD?It happened a few years back with the floppy disk and I know many people were disapointed that many new computers didnt have one - There was sort of an over lapping period and now Floppy disks arent really used -<---- Floppy Disk ---->........................<---- CD/ DVD --->.............................................<--- Memory Sticks? --->So maybe its the same with the CD, it will be replaced by external memory (memory sticks) and a global internet. We all want smaller and thinner - I bet in years to come you will be able to have your 50 best movies all on a memory stick.- Random
