Advantages: A few such as nice women and fair deals Disadvantages: Quality
It was a usual Friday morning where my bank had just been topped off with a whole load more money, my ‘Payday’.
As we all do, I went down town to empty the bank and to fill my wallet ready for a huge ‘Town Shopping Spree’ amongst the many shops I went to, KJC Mobiles caught my eyes.
I looked at my phone, looked at KJC and thought that maybe a phone upgrade might be a good idea!
So in I go, the first things that covers my eyes are the figure of a very pretty lady at the counter and a massive wall covered with mobile phone covers.
I looked at the other side of the shop and saw the small variety of phones in store. Thinking about my trusty Nokia 3330, I decided that just a little attitude will be good enough for my phone, so I went back to the covers.
As I walked over to the covers a man approached me ...
Advantages: Lightweight, slim, beautiful design, great value for money Disadvantages: possibly bend cards if stored for long periods of time (untested)
I previously carried a small USB key on my keyring as my portable memory solution. But I found that more and more, I was having to transfer information from either a PDA or digital camera, and a USB key just didn't work for this.
So I found the solution in the SanDisk SD Plus memory card - it is the size of a normal SD memory card, but also folds in half to reveal a USB adapter which can be plugged into any USB port. Brilliant solution, except that they aren't very sturdy. I was worried about the card breaking in my wallet, so I needed something to protect it.
This is where the Aluminium Memory CardHolder from Proporta comes in. It is the same length and width as a standard credit card (85mm x 54mm), and is only 4mm thick (about as thick as 3 credit cards sitting on top of each other). It is very light as well, weighing in ...
Advantages: A chance to see three of the best actors ever, together. Disadvantages: See opinion.
The Score undoubtedly wins the unnecessary film award and deserves to be remembered only for bringing together the three best method actors of their generations, namely; Brando, De Niro and Norton. I call the film unnecessary, because why on earth do we need another crime/thriller movie with Brando or De Niro when we already have The Godfather, Casino and Goodfellas to name a few. The Score just covers old ground and doesn’t even do it that well anyway, with both stars doing similar roles in better movies. Edward Norton is the only actor with an argument for being in this film, and even he is already worthy of better things than shoddy heist movies. For Gods sake! the guy was in Fight Club and American History X, he doesn’t have to appear in this shameless showcase of talent.
The Score is basically just a distant ...
