Happy belated birthday, Phaedo! Noticed it earlier that you were amongst the 12 who had their b-days yesterday. Scorpios rule!! Just watch your back around them.

This is the second reply in a row where you've had a rather sour attitude towards what I posted. What's up, Ajoesmith? You don't like what I post, move on.

Ordered from Silix 2 weeks ago, but no response yet.
Victoria replied to BobM's topic in General Discussion
Nice, Bob! Glad it all turned out well. Perhaps this is what you are planning, but first get this order, check to see that all arrived in good-working order, THEN order again. I mean, sometimes I myself can't wait, you know? -
Thanks, Brucelles. In fairness, I must say that I overdosed on Rolexes with Silix, and he might've cut me a break here and there. These are certainly cheap watches, and this particular one is BEAUTIFUL (realistic too, I have a similar gen). 44 Euro, so perhaps not quite $50 given the dollars lack of oomph.

For people who wondered what ever happened to Finepics (Mark) >
Victoria replied to babola's topic in General Discussion
Oh, I think I know who the cowardly lion was, who tried to create mischief about me the other day. This is funny, and by funny, I mean, sad...because I don't believe it. "I do have an extensive knowledge of the fakes (I'll have to be totally honest in saying that I used to own many of them - but no more)" -
Here are some cheapies from Silix, under or just centimes over U$50. Rolex Air-King Rolex Datejust with Roman Numerals And we got another one for U$20 in Summer Special, but I have yet to feature it, so stay tuned!

This story made the news bulletin rounds yesterday: "Paris Hilton is being sued by a woman who claims the blonde socialite "stole" her look. The "Simple Life" star has been accused of causing "emotional distress" to fellow Californian Nicolle O'Neill, who fancies herself as an inspiration to the party-loving heiress. In a bizarre personal injury complaint filed in Los Angeles Superior Court earlier this month, O'Neill alleges that she suffers psychologically because of Hilton and accuses the 26-year-old of ripping off her style, including fashion-related "patens" (sic) and "stiling" (sic) tips. Two pages of documents spell out specific charges against Hilton, including a claim that she stole O'Neill's idea to expose her underwear under her trousers. O'Neill also claims Paris swiped her idea to shop in vintage stores for retro dresses. Hilton has yet to issue a response to the allegations." From: http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/sfgate...;entry_id=21566 You mean...Paris is not an original bimbo with unique stiling??? That's not hot. God, there really has to be lawsuit reform in the US. You can literally sue for anything. Like the chap who died after lifting a Coke machine, because his money got stuck and the machine wouldn't cough up his soft drink. He lifted, tilted, and was crushed to death under its weight. You know what his grief-stricken parents did? Sued the makers of the vending machines because they forgot to put a message on the machine stating that lifting it might be fatal. This is why you see stickers on Coke vending machines: "Warning: Tipping may cause injury or death." No sheet, Sherlock...

I admit, it creeps me out too! It looks like it has chickenpox. Now, you mention something about swimming. The offer of a rubber diver's strap still stands if you want it. It's black, but at least it's waterproof if that's an issue. Might be a while you go swimming though, though perhaps leisure centres' pools are heated these days! Good old Lanikai! And I have those colours. I'll sort you out! Stay tuned.

OMG! One would never confuse Ronaldinho with a woman, from behind, from the side, or even briefly full-on. Nonono. Only as Jar Jar Binks. YOU WEREN'T SUPPOSED TO EAT THEM! That's because I always confused him and Chris Armstong! (Thank God depressed Stan the Man never graced our Lillywhite pitch...)

Happy Birthday Admin, Happy Birthday Pugwash! Here's a toast in tonic and gin, Now go post your usual balderdash! Best of good wishes lads.

MOMMY!!

The Founding Fathers were the wisest bunch of politicians to ever hit this earth. They based their premise of democracy that you don't give any one group control, including "the average man", but use checks and balances to counter-balance individual or fleeting stupidities, of which any one group is capable. God bless those rich white landowners every day of our existence in America. I will now play a Yankee Doodle Dandy medley on my kazoo. Again, couldn't disagree more. The country which invented the customer service 800 number, or the NAACP, or Wonder Bread is not a people who take anything lying down. What you have done in 200+ years people whose civilisation's are 5000 years old, still haven't attained. It's not about attention span. It's just that because of this super human pace, you want things fixed NOW. By golly if that attitude doesn't often get you what you want, too. I know, that's what I liked about you when I read your rant. Night!

Damn. Was looking forward to authentic Thai Dragon Lady nails. Back to Chanel Ferrari Red.

+/- I think I read. About U$50 more shipped, if he bargains, but that's why he or she needs to PM him for details.

As an aside, if you're a gen Panerai owner and in the Chicago area, or can get there, there is a Risti GTG on 10 November. You may want to check the site for more details.

OH This is the thread I have been looking for for hours. I wanted to post my cheapies from Silix, but now I'm tired. More tomorrow!
-
This isn't directed at you, but at all who think this way BUT that's one of the biggest lies I've ever heard in all my life. If this is true, how come people can play Halo 3 for 6 hours straight? I couldn't disagree with you more. Every opinion I hold regarding that topic is condensed in one book, fortunately for you -- since as you can see, I can spew forth for hours on a topic. The Wisdom of Crowds: Why the Many Are Smarter Than the Few and How Collective Wisdom Shapes Business, Economies, Societies and Nations http://www.amazon.com/Wisdom-Crowds-Collec...s/dp/0385503865 If you haven't read it, give it a go. No, I don't think they do. But that's just my, the carefully educated, elitely raised little snob's opinion.

Please PM me if you are in position to get that request I sent you, before you left Blighty, Narikaa. Thanks.

Uhm, hello? That's the way that particular show always is. Very snooty people -- like my mother and jeweler friend. They do bargain though. If they didn't, it's because you were going for THE BEST they had in each stall. Wow, 10k. I think I spend a tenth of that on my presents for my boyfriend! You're nice. ROGER DUBUIS is everywhere!! I am starting to take a dislike to that marque. As for the gold at $300, hah, don't hold your breath. The Dow was down by a lot today. People are shaking and baking. Diamonds might be a girl's best friend, but gold is a man's security blanket. Oh how nice. I used to rollerblade past News Cafe to check out what tourist groups were there. If they were Brits, I'd leave like a rocket. If they were French or Italian, I'd stay. I didn't move half-way around the world to be caught dead with British chavs. (That was just to annoy Puggy and DBR. Think it worked) P.S.: I'm watching "The Longest Day" on WPBT (no watches sighting. They all look like grandpa watches). Nice to know you can theoretically turn on your telly, and watch the same thing as I am, Jfreeman.

I believe they're at 300 million vehicles already. That'll treble as their people get richer, having left Communism in the dust, at least economically. The thing is, it's all very well for us to tut-tut emerging economies, and tell them not to duplicate our mistakes -- although I think the combustible engine was the single-most revolutionary invention for the common man in the past 150 years. But why shouldn't they have a piece of the pie, like we do or did? I remember you saying that, yes. That's incredible. We technically have 3, but my car doesn't work and is in storage. 3 people, 3 cars. We used to own a 30-foot boat. Par for the course in America. Yep. That's the world norm. This is why it does my head in when certain people say we women should be called "minorities". Ugh. Eww. A boatload of women. How ghastly. Like being in boarding school all over again. I'll take you all to the Yacht Clube do Rio de Janeiro! I know the guy who set ups the orgies.

You MIGHT want to check out that PAM SS bracelet thread, where I repost what I had to go through to make the bracelet work on my PAM 111h. Basically, one takes pliers and gently turns the "wings" to a 30 degree angle downwards. Then they should fit. Use caution! Anyway, I'm glad you still need browns. I also don't like PAMs on black straps AS MUCH. I wanted to give you a rubber diver's strap + deloyant as an alternative for the Fiddy, but since it's not such a priority now, perhaps not. How about an ostrich, AS WELL as the brown straps? I rarely wear the one I have, though it's a nice change of pace. It's a Bob strap, dark tan with reddish bumps, obviously. That's a deployant-only strap, though. Do you like reddish browns? Or deeper browns? (edit: never mind, you like it "pale" brown. Gotcha!). EDIT: OH! I never asked. What is your preferred size? I wear 115/75, which seem to be very small for men. The ostrich is on the tight side. Tomorrow will definitely be a better day. And you sound worse than my mother with your Gucci shoes and Versace frames. Sheesh! J/K. You should see me bang on about my handbags...

Here's what I had to go through before installing my beautiful Davidsen PAM bracelet. http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?s=&...st&p=317975 However, I rarely wear the bracelet on the watch I "settled" onto it, one of my two Andrew PAM 111hs, because, well it's gorgeous but it looks masculine on me. I think I would feel the same even with the tapered version. PICS:

PAM 029a, with tuxedo dial if memory serves. YAY!! Apart from being a bit swamped these days, I wanted to wait to see what PAM you finally settled on, so I can send you those straps. Me So Horny is a given, but you let me know what colour you want, and I'll include a few. The tux dial makes it slightly more intricate a decision than otherwise, so think about it! And I am so sorry you had a bad day. *hugs*
