Heathrow Airport for New York , and taking his seat as he settled in, he noticed a very beautiful woman boarding the plane. He realised she was
heading straight toward his seat and bingo - she took the seat right beside him.
"Hello", he blurted out, "Business trip or vacation?"
She turned, smiled enchantingly and said, "Business. I'm going to the annual nymphomaniac convention in the United States .."
He swallowed hard. Here was the most gorgeous woman he had ever seen sitting next to him, and she was going to a meeting for nymphomaniacs!
Struggling to maintain his composure, he calmly asked, "What's your business role at this convention?"
"Lecturer," she responded."I use my experience to debunk some of the popular myths about sexuality.."
"Really", he smiled, "what myths are those?"
"Well," she explained, "one popular myth is that African-American men are the most well endowed when, in fact, it's the Native American
Indian who is most likely to possess that trait. Another popular myth is that French men are the best lovers, when actually it is the men of
Greek descent. We have also found that the best potential lovers in all categories are the Irish."
Suddenly the woman became uncomfortable and blushed. "I'm sorry," she said. "I really shouldn't be discussing this with you, I don't even
know your name!"
"Tonto," the man said. "Tonto Papadopoulos, but my friends call me Paddy."

This looked like not a new thing in Shanghai but I was quite impressed with how this system works. A car parked at individual cage or shell and the facilities stacks the cage inside the building. When the owner picked up the car, they just called the cage ID and the car will be delivered at the building's foyer.
If it's not 100% the same, it's not an IP infringement. That's what my friend in China told me which explains the intentionally misspellings.
The restaurant is in the small street opposite of Greater Union Cinema at George Street, Sydney.
Looks like it is already active for some airlines, you can cut the queue with this machine. It has passport reader and all so is cool. Looking forward to test one in the future.
The food is a bit more authentic compared to that of Bali Laguna, and more affordable. However, you can get those food in better quality and authenticity at cheaper price in Sydney.
Thanks, Amy!

When I was small, he bought all new gadgets (computers, etc) that launched in the market - he made good money then. The most things he is good at is making lists, tables, and playing games. I got to use the computers to what they were designed to. I chat with people overseas by hooking up my computer to HAM radio. I did some small programming, too, back then. These were on the 80s.
Internet came on the 90s. I already became a gadget freak,and my dad was into mobile phones. I might be one of the first batch of people in the country who used emails. And my dad cut the land line as he said everybody should just use the mobile phones. Very advanced of you, Dad, but I need land line for internet. What is internet? he said. Ok - I just connect from my own home. So we lived in a split ways in term of technology.
The 00s - era of broadband. Definitely I have broadband at my place. The fastest and the greatest available in China - where I lived for a while for work. I had my linux server and 2 macs and all. I have my China Telecom account accessing wi-fi network at Starbucks. Internet heaven. My dad still changing mobile phones and not touching internet. But he knew what internet was.
One day he called me and said that he needed an email address. I was surprised as he usually asked me to fax everything - he had a landline just for fax. And SMS - he was a bit of SMS junkie. I created him a Gmail address and set it up to his Outlook. he told his sister to send him an email and he called her to let her know he received her email - so cute.
I thought that would be a new era for him and expected to see more of his emails - I was wrong. It went back to normal with SMS and faxes. When I asked, he said that he needed to go to wifi hotspot to check his emails. Off course, he didn't have internet at home. And I said he could check his emails from his phone. He said that he didn't have a blackberry and as far as he knew, only blackberry can do emails. Wrong, I said. So when I came to visit last year, I showed my dad my iPhone. And how I can do my emails from the phone. And I did the email setup on his phone. I also gave him a custom email address so he won't forget what it was. He tried it once or twice and that's it. I thought that email was not just his thing.
Until finally I realised that he WANTED a blackberry. He would check his emails - and even other things on the net - if he has blackberry. It was an expensive handset so he couldn't justify the cost and with me ridiculing blackberry. Once I realised, it is a status symbol for him - which he needs as traditionalist, I told him to get one and I'll pay for it.
