The Man with the Laughs

Gooooooooood-byyyyyyye Vietnaaaaam! That's right, I'm history... I'm outta here. I got the lucky ticket home, baby. Rollin, rollin, rollin'... keep them wagons rollin', rawhide! Yeah, that's right... the final Adrian Cronauer broadcast... and this one is brought to you by our friends at the Pentagon. Remember the people who brought you Korea? That's right, the U.S. Army. If it's being done correctly, here or abroad, it's probably not being done by the Army.

In honor of Robin Williams, I've decided to forsake the rules and simple post a lot of what made him special to us: his humor and ability to make us laugh!!

Genie: [turns into a cheerleader] Rick 'em, rack 'em, rock 'em, rake! Stick that sword into that snake!
Jafar: You stay out of this!
Genie: [Weakly] Jafar, Jafar, he's our man; if he can't do it, great!

When Christopher Reeve was in the hospital after his accident, Robin came to visit him. Reeve said this about that surprise visit:

Then, at an especially bleak moment, the door flew open and in hurried a squat fellow with a blue scrub hat and a yellow surgical gown and glasses, speaking in a Russian accent. He announced that he was my proctologist, and that he had to examine me immediately...it was Robin Williams...for the first time since the accident, I laughed. My old friend had helped me know that somehow I was going to be okay.

When Stephan Spielberg was filming "Schindler's List", Robin would call him to cheer him up. I think I only called him once, maybe twice. I called him when I was representing People for the Valdheimers Association. A society devoted to helping raise money to help older Germans who had forgotten everything before 1945. I remember him laughing and going 'thank you.'"

Don't think I haven't considered it... looks quite painful though, I think I'll take the wimpy option... which also has the merit of being non-permanent...

I quite like these elf ear cuff things - I don't think they require a piercing... maybe a little too camp to ever wear in public.

Go to the upper floor of the Torni hotel. It's a tower in the middle of the city, and even Helsinkians that have lived there their lives often don't know you can visit it and get the most amazing view on the city thinkable.
Entrance is free, and there's a bar on top. Don't order any Finnish beer though.

Did you do it on your own, or with Scanbalt? I did the same one, it was amazing. Let me guess, you stayed at the 16 euro hostel?
edit: should have read better, you said it was a daytrip, so no night in Tallinn. We did it with 1 night in Tallinn, which is a really cool place.

Wick.

I've only thrown up in public due to a hangover once (in a museum in Japan) and managed to actually get to the toilet. I'm familiar enough with my hangovers now that I know if I'm gonna be sick when I wake up so if I absolutely have to be out the house I'll normally make sure I'm sick before I leave and then just not eat. Pr terrible, but works for me.

Yes, this is the only time it ever happened to me. And of course, fate determined my friends were around to take pictures.

I usually don't have any hangovers at all, anyway, I'm quite resilient to them.

Ehh. I get absolutely shocking hangovers, like "I cannot move and can't do anything all day" style. I normally feel pr bad after just one or two beers so generally I just don't drink full stop if I have work the next day. Annoyingly our work Christmas do always seems to be on a Thursday - there's a general agreement nothing will be done on the Friday, but I normally take the day as holiday because it's one thing to mope around work not doing much and another to spend the day being ill in the toilets.

My worst one was when I decided after beer Whiskey was a fantastic idea too.

Gotta either climb up the tree (beer -> wine -> spirits) or down the tree (spirits -> wine -> beer), not go up and down all over the shop.

Note, this advice is worthless.
