Someone outdoes you! Chatted with Jeff, and he's spent a decade of time collecting Dr Who episodes, and he's got all of them. Do you know anyone with a 42" plasma TV? Well, Jeff's not only got one, he's got a 50" LCD at home too! Dammit, that guy. I'm envious.
This morning, went to played table tennis and badminton at Unity Secondary. It's been a long time since I've played either.
Afternoon, went to the National Library to look for Foxtrot ("Orlando Bloom has ruined everything", "Am I a mutant, or what?" and "Your momma thinks square roots are vegetables"). Couldn't find anything except a copy of "Come closer, Roger, there's a mosquito on your nose", so, I finished reading that at the library. Then, I borrowed SHAZAM Archive 1, 2 and 3, and "Pearls before Swine".
On the way back, went up the MRT, and discovered that the cap for the MP3 player was lost, and went out of the MRT on the path back to the library. Fortunately, I found it along the pathway. Of course, that meant I wasted about 60-80 cents just going in and out of the MRT.
