  1. Sup, Im trying to find this song that I can only remeber one lyric too, and Im pretty dam sure that it isnt the correct lyric as it dosnt show up in google anywhere. Not even sure where I heard the beat as Im pretty sure it came off my ipod, but cant find it after days of searching. Goes some thing like " Spit bars so hard you cant handle me" or "Spit beats so hard you cant handle this" or something similar. If I remeber right its to a pretty quick but hard bass tune, though I could be wrong about that aswell. Any and all help would be much appricated. Will

    Marijuana

    Living in Canada taught me a fair bit about smoking weed. Started off keen as anything but got sick of the overall "mellow" feeling it had on me, I'd much rather be on a "Hyper" high than a mellow/downer. Anyways, I dont mind anyone smoking weed one bit, like all thngs, done in moderation it can be a super good time, good to chill out or whatever, but at the same time I my best friends out here, smoke it day in day out every 4 or 5 hours of the day, these guys literally cant function without smoking, they get edgey, angry and just arnt nice people when there "sobre" soon as they blaze up again there the nicest most hospitable/welcoming/friendly group of people I've met. They all have shit short term memorys aswell. Again, I dont picture it as a bad thing at all, actually quite like it, just like all things that f**k you up, needs to be done in moderation. P.S. I just had a thought, why isnt there a stigma against people that smoke weed every day compared to people that are alcoholics or whatever? I know smoking weed is looked down upon in general socitey but if you have even the slightest clue most people dont give a shit.
  4. Netbook & Wireless. Started a webcam session to me mate whilst having a shit once, he was like wtf was that as I let off a fart and a shit fell in the toilet.
  5. If your going solo and looking for a good time, get on the ski forums in the UK and find groups that have a seat or two left on a bus thats going to anywhere in the alps. The party villages will be more fun, but alot more expensive. The other idea is get onto the Uni's as they always have seats spare and if your willing to prop up an extra 100 quid and buy the organiser alot of beer they will always take you along. Call people, get on the web, get on the forums and find stuff. I can sit and chat all day about the cheap and good resorts, but thats pointless 1/2 weeks before a trip. I'd go for the Uni busses myself, jumped on one at the end of last winter which cost the students 400, cost me 550, 100 to bung myself out, 50 to bribe the organiser with beer. Spending not included. Lastminute and stuff are good, but most of the cheap hotels/hostels are easier to get hold off if you just go on the mountains website and ring them directly, ask if they have alot of space, if they do, explain you want to come, but cant afford there costs, most small hotels will offer you cheaper rates. Let me know how it goes, got a few mates that are working in the french alps at the minute so might be able to throw you a couch or something. Good luck! PS most of what Fish said is good stuff.
  6. Dont suppose anyone has a key there willing to share? Pretty sure Im not allowed to ask that but hey ho Ill give it ago anyway!
  7. Hai, Just wondering if anyone has a copy of this awesome game hanging around? Inerested in getting in contact if you do and dont play it!
  8. Ive been sat in Canada for a year thinking wtf is it im missing hip hop wise for a decent chill out beat whilst stoned. my god did you awaken my sences. I completely forgot about these two! Go go loud pipes, 17 years, the biggy remix, the daft remix, its all f**king sick!
  9. Zero skin exposure in a pretty good idea of things, but do not under estimate layers, France, Italy, Austria, pretty much all of skiable EU dosnt generally get this cold. Take a back pack on your first day up, and KEEP taking one, stash it, hide, put it in a locker, whatever, but if your on the hill, and the wind picks up and its already -30, if your missing even one peice of gear, your going to be f**king miserable for it. The big problem with most hills in Canada is that they arnt ski in ski out, so you dont have the luxury of going to the hotel to get your shit if your cold, its a 20 minute gondala ride to the base, then a 40 minute bus journey, then a 10 minute walk for me. Sounds like youve got your head screwed on though so I'll lay off. Just remeber a very simple fact that really does apply so much more here than in the EU imo, Its always better to be hot than not being able to warm up at all... Good choice on the gear by the sounds of it, pretty much perfect for what I would of chosen for the way you were talking. Hope you have a sick time in Pano dude, if you get stuck for fun times, PM me and ill put you onto a good mate of mine out there, shes f**king mental and loves dick, so its always win (she will be able to out drink and drug you btw). If you come by Banff for a stop over/to ski at all hit me up aswell, I'll show you around and get you into some sick powder on the hills up in Sunshine/Lake Louise! Theres mini parks, but f**k all compared to what there will be, not enough snow to reap the mountain for a proper park yet! Quick edit: Its more important that you look good anyway, so who gives a f**k about how his skiing is. Skis straight, pointing the right direction and looking life a fecking pimp will get him more cred than being able to stomp his carves in waist high, tree stuff (I dont actually like this idea, its just the general trend these days).
  10. What this man said. Ive done 2 winter seasons now, this being my third, 1 in France, these last 2 in Banff, Canada. The current temp outside is -30 and thats in town. The ski hills closed yesterday due to it being -55 with wind chill out on the slopes. If you dont know what you need to wear already, GTFO and go talk to someone that knows/has a clue. The whole reason they close hills at these temps are for clowns like you that dont have a clue and dont wear enough, go out for 10 minutes and come back in with frostbite on there cheeks, nose, chin, ears, you name it.... That sounds really attacking and its not supposed to be a direct attack at you, just a firm nudge in the right direction for wising up! A good mate of mine left for Pano a week ago and she tells me that its as cold there, seen as its only an hour and a half away. Now more into the skiing side of things, Ive rode various skis throughout the 2 and a bit seasons I've done, everything from Salomon race skis to the big mountain skis to the new reverse cambered powder skis, by the sounds of it, your going to want an all mountain ski, I'm not going to go into brand names and paticular models here as I would be pretty dam biased, all I do is list some things that you should be looking for depending on what sort of skiing you will be aiming at. Not knowing how tall you are or how much you way I cant begin to give you ski heights or widths and how they will effect your performance in regards to size. Some basic rules of thumb are as follows (of course some things do differ between people and situations but these should help "generally"), a longer heavier ski with a thinner centre measurement will give you a much quicker but slower responding ski, this set up is generally used for a racing ski. Wider tipped skis with a wider centre measurement are generally used as a powder ski, more surface area means a greater amount of lift under the ski and enables you to sort of "float" on the pow, always a good feeling. A smaller thinner ski, twin tipped and usually pretty light is the sort of set up you would be wanting for a park ski. This although not in much detail hopefully should give you a pretty decent outline of what a paticular ski is aimed at. Personally I would go for an all mountain ski that is slightly smaller that your height, it sounds like you will be getting into the more parky stuff as I havnt heard you mention powder/back country at all (I know your new, but from the first time I could paralell turn I was straight into the powder/off piste stuff, big respect to the park riders, they do some crazy shit, but sitting around in the ice all day isnt my idea of skiiing), this will allow you to start getting tech on rails/jibs and still allow for you to go hit up the powder when/if you want to. I would start listing ski's for you and can if necessary but I really can not recomend enough, even if your going to just blag it and not give them any business, go to and talk to people that work in proper ski shops, theres atleast one in pretty much every decent sized town/city and more likely than not you get people working there that are really knowledgeable, there advice is invaluable and they will be able to show you skis, test out boots and really let you get a feel for what different shapes and sizes can be/do. Boots, Im pretty shite with, I just went and got some free ride aimed boots as they looked sick and it said they were meant for big drops on the box, I have other friends that will tell you the extra dollars arnt worth the buy as you wouldnt be able to tell the difference, the main thing for pretty much any skiier is comfort, freestyle or not, uncomfy boots will bloody ruin your day. Poles you will want some big burly things that arnt going to snap, generally avoid carbon and probobaly steel if your new, Id go for some burly Alu ones as they will have some give should you fall on them and the extra strengh will help should you take any big stacks. Wall of text or what?! Please dont take to much offence (if any) to what I've wrote, I've been around so many naive aussies for 2 seasons now, and it pisses me off more and more the tales you here of how people think a light leather jacket, scarf and jeans will do in the Canadian rockies. I'm sure your not this dumb though so I shall shut up. Any more questions, feel free to ask.

    Apple Or Pc?

    Would you commit suicide if all apple laptops for some reason just got destroyed and could never be used again? Your dedication seems much deeper than "it just feels better"
