I had a pint of Guiness on my 21st. birthday. Unfortunately, not too many pubs in the U.S. serve english pints. What are they thinking?

"Sorry, those 4 extra ounces are expensive." LOL!

I have a Citizen Eco-Drive that my ex got me for my birthday last year. It's scratched to hell already which makes me wonder how you could live with having an expensive watch.

I never wear it anymore anyways. I spend 90% of my day in front of a computer and I can't stand having it on my wrist while I'm typing. That, and the computer has a clock. ;-)

They are great watches, well made and accurate. Now can anyone tell me the mystery of the kinetic mechanism?

Most times I walked into bars in the US and asked for a pint the bar staff would titter. Except of course Irish bars.

Kinetic mechanism charges the battery when you move your wrist

Awesome. I have nothing to worry about because at the end of the day I've not spent 2-3,000 on a watch... only £17.

P.P.S. And in the glove box, is a matched pair of custom made platinum plated Beretta automatic pistols with my name in 24 carat gold, which I'm free to use to blow my friggin' brains out if I scratch my new Porsche 911 Carerra Cabriolet!
Bet ya can't beat THAT, ya smart ass kid!
Oh, by the way, I'm wearing an 8 year old Timex watch.
