you win some, you lose somejsut when i was starting to feel relatively upset about having to pay so much extra tax this year, i get the news that i have aquired 266 free shares of Alinta because i own AGL shares. the Alinta shares are worth about $2700! not bad considering i only own $7000 of shares of AGL.
anyways.. ive been reminded that i neglected to mention the Presidents concert last week. it was ok i spsoe, i wasnt really expecting that much.. but i didnt get less than i expected =p they were at least interesting on stage, so i guess it was partially becuase i couldnt mosh about due to my bad knee =( it was on Sunday nite at the venue formally known as the Metro. ill be damned if i know what the hell its called now. everyone still calls it the Metro. People are too lazy to learn new names, they jsut use the old names like the Superdome or Centrepoint.
on friday i went to the
Meat and Wine Co. which is like next to Imax. It was very meaty (as you'd expect), even though i only had a burger and not a steak. i also had this weird blue cheese and vodka dip sauce for my chips, bizarre but quite tasty =) but if i ever went back there id get the Prawn and Beef Skewers for sure. i saw some guy on another table order it, and it looked spectacular =p Gus ordered the "Awesome Rack of Pork Ribs", prompting a flurry of comments involving passersby and if they had or should have the "Awesome Rack".
in other news: ive added a couple of links to my side menu. check em out if you're currently procrastinating..
