nine million bicycles - at last.....

Well, I've finally heard that Katie Melua song, "Nine Million Bicycles". If I had a quid for every time someone asked me either while I was there or when I came back, "so are there really 9 million bicycles in beijing then?" What was I supposed to answer, "no there's only 8,995,451 actually, I counted them myself". Grr.......

Am a bit disappointed in this one.......

You Are 66% Evil

You are very evil. And you're too evil to care.
Those who love you probably also fear you. A lot.

astrology - invaluable advice or a load of bollox?

I'm not sure how we got onto the topic, but one of my friends here today said that apparenly she was going to meet that special someone today, because her horoscope said so.

Star signs, god love 'em. You can look at 3 horoscopes for the same star sign and see 3 totally differnt things

I'm a Taurus, so I decided to see what I had in store for today.

Astrology.com says:
A certain someone wants you to get a little closer, but you're not sure if you're ready for all the demands an increased sense of intimacy will place upon you.

my.horoscope.com says:
Just what you don't need and didn't ask for – a stressful or unhelpful exchange with either your date, your romantic other, or someone you have your eye on.

the LA times horoscope says:
Tell others what they can do to help you make an even bigger difference in your community.

astrology-online.com says
Your versatile mind and common sense will allow you to come up with various solutions. Your anger may be impossible to contain if you get into debates with family members. Business trips might prove unproductive.

Astrologyzone.com says:
You seem to be mulling over a move, renovation, rental, or even the purchase of a house or condo, but you seem hesitant. You want to act decisively, but you can't quite get the pieces together. Mars, the action planet, is now in your fourth house of home and orbiting very close to Saturn, the planet of caution, during most of the month. This is a hot and cold, stop-and-go combination of planetary energy, so you may feel a bit frustrated that things aren't coming together as quickly as you'd like.

Closer to home, horoscope.co.uk says:
Your mate or partner could have good news to share, and it might involve finances. Even so, you have a choice to make today. Compromise and consideration of others involved are important.

and the Irish Independent says:
Your popularity is set to fly off the Richter Scale! Don’t let it go to your head. Continue to question people’s motivations. Bear in mind that you are wrong some of the time. However, your own judgement is all you have. So you listen to your heart and soul. Take the risk, make the connection, and don’t waste an opportunity just because you didn’t see it coming.

So which one do I go by?

Apparently today I may have an argument with my "significant other" (never mind the fact I don't have one) over my committment issues, or possibly over some good financial news they've just given me, which may have something to do with buying a house (which I'm not looking to do). I'd better not get pissed off about it tho, especially with my family, but it's ok, my verstaile mind will find a way out of the situation and as a result I'll be very popular with everyone. Oh yeah, and I shouldn't go on a business trip either (wasn't going to anyway, my company wouldn't send me across the street these days!).

And there was me thinking I was going to have a boring day!

useful travel guides for iPodders......

Found this link a few mins ago, travel guides for your iPod! They're free as well. unfortunately they're only for iPod Photos so I won't be able to look at them on my poor little mini. ah well, still pretty useful.

cynical? moi?

You Are 68% Cynical

You're a full blown cynic... and probably even skeptical of these results.
You have your optimistic moments, but most likely you keep them to yourself.
