big day out

The biggest, and best music festival in Australia. It tours Australia and New Zealand every year, and has some of the best music acts around. This year was the best ive been to, with The Killers, My Chemical Romance, Tool, Jet, Muse, Evermore, Eskimo Joe, The Presets, Lily Allen, Hot Chip and Sick Puppies.
The day runs from 10am till late, and features about 5 stages, so theres always someone good to listen to.
Plus, theres awesome rides and stuff if you get tired of the mosh environment!
Best day of the year!
I listened to The Killers from the top of the ferris wheel at Big day out '07. It was mad!

abandonware 

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.

Foot prisons 

Socks. Annoying, sweat-causing, non-barefoot enducing, everyday socks.
The first thing I do when I take off my shoes, is rip off the foot prisons I had to wear inside them. That's why I prefer flip flops, even in winter!
