What did Bowie do at your age?

He got hit in the face by Lou Reed after a dinner in Hammersmith. Took it like a champ.

And what have you been doing this year? Anything to reach that anecdotal high?

Personally I can't even come close to beating recording the Low album.

[Grey Fox]

I cheated a little, the year in which I am 32 hasn't started yet.

My ISP shows a 10gb data comsumption for yesterday that I cannot find where it is from.

R.I.P. Pierre Boulez

Happy to see that he is well known abroad. He was more of a director than a composer, according to bad mouths.

He covered the Beach Boys hit "God Only Knows".

I can live with that, I guess.

I bought a Mi Band on a Chinese website in December (that had a decent Trustpilot score), so far the only activity I've heard or seen from them is that they've drawn the 19 dollars from my Paypal account. Was it foolish of me to think it might actually arrive?

Not saying for sure, but it's quite common for Chinese traders to not bother much about notifications and emails.

Small parcel shipping from China seems to have gotten faster recently, in the past I'd figure on around 3 weeks, but now often small items arrrive within two weeks. But given the recent holiday period delays there could still a chance it's in someones delivery/mail system?

Hurray! They've send it, 25-30 days expected delivery though.

I still have a 5 pound note, 150 Czech koruna, and 200 forints in my wallet for no good reason.  Oh and 5 euro and 2 reais that I'd forgotten about.

You should really put those away some place. Hanging around in your wallet is not going to be good for those souvenir bills.

Can't wait for the new Bowie album on Friday!

2 reais

Impressive use of the plural. 

I just copied it off of the bill.

Who's Brigitte Lahaie?

[Admiral Yi]

Who's Brigitte Lahaie?

Some chick who doesn't look much like Julia Stiles.

[Josephus]

She is France's greatest export.

[garbon]

We get it. You are old and like French porn.

[Josephus]

In a nutshell, yeah.

So who is Julia Stiles?
