Cheers! I'll give it a read when I've got a few minutes today!

I started the post so I guess I'm entitled to my 2 cents. I've got 2 scenerios for you. 1. Smoking sections - first, the smoke in the smoking section doesn't magically stay in that section. Smoke drifts and infects the entire facility. Granted the further away from the smoking section the less it's ...

giggsy

I guess I was wrong. Apparently all the stats on the harms of smoking are just "hyperbole." I feel so much better now. Thanks for setting me straight. Or...you're insane. I suggest doing some research into the effects. Now, I do not drive an SUV. I have never driven an SUV nor will I ever ...

Here here! I second Ian's motion. I'd be dead embarrased to show my place looking like that! Hire a maid.

giggsy

maybe it was blocked due to the racy content? I dunno?

It happens more often than I'd like to admit!

That's a tough question. I believe you create your own luck. I believe that destiny can guide you with a gentle hand but then you have to take the cues, read the signs, make your own luck and ultimately make your own destiny. I do believe in karma though.

giggsy

I'm kind of with Ian on this one. Sort of. I believe that something does guide you gently along a path. By that I mean putting you in places and situations where you have to make your own decisions. I can't believe that it's someone's destiny to be homeless. Or it's a child's destiny to be killed in...

Glory glory Man United!

I stayed in the hotel in the City Centre. I found it pretty decent. Last time I was in I stayed at the Radison SAS out in Media City. Again, a nice hotel. I found it was a bit out of the way though. Next time I think I'll stay by the creek.

Glory glory Man United! They may not have deserved the win but every great team, every championship calibre side find ways to get the points no matter how well the other team plays or how crap they play. That is the mark of a great team. Being able to win no matter what. And we WON no matter what! :...

I dunno about Burger King in Dubai. I do know that they definitely should ban Dairy Queen in Dubai. I got food poisoning from the one located in the airport. It was not a fun 18 hour flight plus layovers to Canada. I will NEVER EVER EVER eat DQ in Dubai again!

If I remember correctly I was surfing google about Dubai and ran into this site. I was originally looking to make contact with anyone in the advertising field. I didn't have a lot of luck on that front but as the poster alluded to, the site kinda stuck with me.

giggsy

The Radisson SAS was pretty nice. My room was comfortable. It was decorated nicely. When I was there last April it was still pretty new so they were working out some things like Internet access still. I didn't eat in either of the two restaurants but they did look nice. The only down side, which rea...

I'm meeting up with an old friend in Toronto Friday night. We'll go out and have an early St. Paddy's day celebration at Fionn McCools or the Dora Keogh, talk about football, both pro and the team I coach. We'll probably talk about the ad industry, as we're both part of it. That sort of thing. Shoul...

That's a nice 'dream thing'. Mine is early retirement and lots of travel. Although seeing as I'm only 32 and no where near retirement age...I'll keep dreaming!

Hey Leaf Nation...I'm sitting in Leaf nation (Brantford, close enough) right now wearing my leaf jersey reading your post. Wondering if you get to see any Leaf games at all over in Dubai? Surely not? I doubt they've even heard of them over there. Or am I wrong. Is there an underground hockey movemen...

I can't argue that Fayz. I wish I could, but I can't. They'll fall short in their fight for the final playoff spot. Another year of no playoffs in T-dot. The only good thing they've done this season was not get rid of the young players at the trade deadline for over paid veterans who haven't done an...

natural or arson?

This thread brings a question to my mind. I'm familiar with Dubai and it's costs. Is the cost of living in AD the same as Dubai?

giggsy

That would be nice. Good for you if you've got that. You're very lucky.

giggsy

I'm hoping a.s.s.h.a.t. or as I like to say a.s.s.c.l.o.w.n. is just being sarcastic? Being Canadian, I'm far from anti-American but sometimes they just think the world is theirs. Not everyone wants to be melted into that BIG melting pot!

giggsy

For me, I like the prospect of warmth all year long. I'll take the July August heat over the January February cold here in Canada. I want to be able to wear shorts year round! Play soccer year round. Also, it's new and exotic. The architecture is amazing. The projects are insane. The shopping is gre...

As I said in this guys last post...As.sClow.n. I wouldn't even respond to this idiots posts as he only posts to get this kind of reaction. Let him post and don't respond. A.ssHat will eventually get bored and piss off. Guy probably couldn't even point Canada, UK, or UAE on a map if it wasn't labelle...

To swim lengths?

I can't believe this tripe is still going on. It's like hearing a bunch of kids, "my dad can take your dad!" Then the other one, "No way, my dad is totally tougher than your dad." In the end no one concedes. I already gave my 2 cents way back on page 1 or 2...days ago. This guy i...

You'd have to be way more specific. For example, ever seen Canada on a map? It's huge. Are you talking East Coast like Nova Scotia? Or in french Canada like Montreal? Toronto? The Prairies? Strike that, nothing out there but wheat fields. Or the west coast like Vancouver. Each place is amazingly dif...

If he's a Man Yoo fan he can't be too bad.

I used to aim for 10 hours. Stressful job = more recovery time needed. At least in my case. Then the missus and I had our first child. He's now 2 1/2 so I can get 7-8 hours straight a night. Anything less and I feel hung over. Even when I haven't been drinking!
