Metric System

There really is no point to this blog.
But I wanted to share this sort of funny story.

I was looking up the weather in Sydney and Auckland for the next week. Just to see what temps I was getting into.

Well, I used weather.com because its what I know.

The temps were in Fareheit. I had to think really hard what the numbers meant and actually converted them to Celsius so I would have a local reference. Felt kind of stupid.

Ok now for some music trivia or knowledge.

Here is a list of the most popular songs I've heard repeatedly in the last 2 months. Note these really aren't my types of music but its what you here in the bars/clubs and radio.

#1 This was the overall #1 song I've heard in the Phillippines and Oz.
My Humps -- Black Eyed Peas

#2 Again this is popular in both countries. Don't know the song but here is a line from it.
Ay Ay Ay, Don't F@$% with my heart

Ok now the rest in random order.

#3 some Tagalog song in the Philippines

#4 OZ only -- "I want to wish you well" Not sure but its old and starts out like Jessies girl

#5 Oz only -- "I come from a land down under" Men at work.
I've asked Aussies if they really listen to it and they say no, but I keep hearing it.

Ok that is all.
Oh wait one other thing.

On a bit of good news. It looks like I'll get my pics back. There was a guy in Hobart with a recovery program. So I left him the card overnight and he recovered 260 pics from the card including pics of tassie devils. He is going to put them on a cd and send the card and cd to me in NZ.
I'll let you know.

Now the last fact. Lots of toilets in Oz have 2 buttons. I never knew what they were for because they both caused the toilet to flush. I now think that the one on the left is half flush and uses less water.

Ok that really is all.
