[color=#000000ost_uid0]Well, I've downloaded Trillian, but for some reason I had to use CNET's secure download thing because it just wasn't working otherwise. No idea how I'm going to get the patch.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Trillian's a script. Nice. I haven't bothered with a script since WS2.

Less parking spots, if you live in Greater Vancouver.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Hmm, let`s see... the time...

When it`s 10:00 in Ottawa/Toronto/Montreal, it`s 15:00 in the UK, 16:00 in Netherlands/Germany/Croatia, 17:00 in Israel and 23:00 in Singapore.

This could work,

(any more timezones I`m missing?)[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]23:00 in Singapore is a good time; it's not too early and not freakishly late. [/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Sounds good to me.

(Although it would be just a little later here for now, due to daylight saving and all. I [iost_uid0]do[/iost_uid0] wonder why that's not around the same date world-wide (except for those who don't do this), but that's beside the point.)[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]^ Yeah, SF was the same way. Someone (think it was the late Herb Caen) theorized that there was only enough parking there for about 75% of the vehicles at any given time, with the other 25% perpetually circling around waiting for a space to open up. [/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]That looks like Maiden Rock (The only picture i could find, realy old, but the town hasn't changed a bit, I mean it. :lol It's built into the side of a hill over looking the Mississippi river... so theres realy not much room. i'm guessing that the highway that goes through town sees a little more traffic than it did then because they don't angle park on the street anymore, they parallel park on the sidewalk, its quite a funny sight.[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]I took that picture in Chartres, France. Â I couldn't get over how funny it was that you're [iost_uid0]supposed[/iost_uid0] to park on the sidewalk. [/colorost_uid0]
