Pebble Beach Golf Links

Just thot I share some of the pictures that I took during my recent visit (18 Jul 2004) to Pebble Beach.

The place and scenery is simply breath-taking. I would rate it even higher than Ria Bintan although I must still say the the latter is also quite good. But with a temperature hovering around 20 to 25 deg with light winds, the climate is simply the perfect weather to beat the sweltering heat of Bintan.

Unlike Wilson's St Andrew's game which cost him only 85 sterling, the game here sets you back by USD 420 for the green fee. Certainly a course where you just go and play once in your life time and never again..... until you strike TOTO....

Cinnabar Golf Club

Well, if I am going to talk about golf clubs, than I might as well mention the Cinnabar Golf Club that my Grand-uncle and Grand-aunt brought me the day after Pebble Beach. (19 Jul 2004).

Best Nokia Phone Ever

Nokia 7200

This review from CNet caught my attention.

"... Apart from being the Finnish giant's first GSM clamshell handset, the 7200 will be remembered for its interchangeable Xpress-on textile covers. This is a very bold move to distinguish itself from the clone-like designs of the other brands and adds a new dimension of texture to a mobile. However, care must be taken as dirt and stains may not be easily removed. ..."

But it was the comment by one of the readers that really had me falling off my chair laughing.

[ 01/04/2004, 08:13 PM "Greatest feature!" ]
"How come everyone seems to forget about its best feature. Next time you are in the toilet and happen to run out of toilet paper, simply whip out your fabric-covered 7200 and wipe your butt clean with it! How many other phones boast that feature?"

Bought the phone last week. It's an aesthetically nice looking phone but
features are rather similar to the other nokia models. Nothing
spectacular.

Well, hope you got yourself a good deal there as I heard this model is
quite pricey at the moment.

Question: What made you buy it?
