"Excess consumption may have a laxative effect"

I wish they would also put on the packet what their definition of "excess" is.

Does one packet of mints in 10 min come under excess or just too fast?? And why doesn't licorice come with the same warning?? If it wasn't for an over informative Mum I wouldn't have known.

Energy drinks like "Red Bull" and "V" now come with warnings of a 5 can limit per day, but sugar free mints don't??

Or is it they didn't expect some fool to eat a packet of their mints that fast, or 5 packets while watching TV one night and so never put the warning on there??

Either way I'm bored and looking into this way too much.

Ok March Happy Snaps are

Ok March Happy Snaps are now complete. I'm glad to get rid of B/W and go back to wonderful colour.

Note:
1: 95% of images are not cropped. This is exactly what come out of the camera.
2: I always take every photo into Photoshop to reduce it's size to 320x240
3: I take between 10 - 120 photos per day, then cataloge them in PhotoRelay
4: Every photo is mine except when indicated. ie Ashadis Toy Porn photo
5: I try to make comments on every photo for a bit of humour
6: I don't update them everyday as i'm lazy
7:Happy Snaps is my favourite section

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon was, as everyone else has allready said, very enjoyable.

I saw it at the Roxy cinema in Parramatta. I just wish it was in the huge, and very atmosheric, cinema one rather than the wooden floored cinema two. Oh well still good.

Note: The Roxy has to be the coolest building in Parramatta. Pink on the outside, QVB like on the inside. Cinema one has to be seen to be believed.

In fact the entire issue of Juxtapose was filled with interesting links and fantastic, surreal art. If you see it have a flick through it's worth it.

Australian TV is in the grips of Cash Fever.
First we had Sale of the Century (people win prizes and then after a week and a half of questions they can win the cash jackpot)

Name of show followed but top cash prize

Now we have Greed = 1,070,000
Who Wants to be a Millionare = 1,000,000
The Weakest Link = 100,000 (painful to watch)
Cash Bonanza (Larry Emdure I missed you) = 250,000

Now there are no prizes, just cash. Add these to the amount of Reality TV we have on now and thats 60% of prime time programming (exageratted estimate)
