tipping is about the individual, it's about how you want to be seen and how you conduct yourself, no one really thinks about how the tip will affect the recipient, you just do it, not for them but for you, why? cos thats the kind of guy you are and you'd rather have a bit of class than have a bunch of internet people banging on about how you dont tip.
If you tip, do it for yourself.
If service is shit i always tip, not for them, nothing to do with them, i do it for me cos it's how i was brought up and i know it's right, it would reflect badly on me and my family if i started to be a muppet and moan about these sort of things.
Agreed. You're opinion on the wire is wrong but you're right about this.

Knowing - 7/10 - a good watch, with a couple of epic set pieces...but some massive plot holes, still cant work it out...
I liked this I thought it was one of the worst films I had ever seen. Almost without a redeeming feature. The Close Encounters rip off was one of the laziest pieces of screenplay it has been my displeasure to view lol Have to disagree Rich, i thought it Knowing was top drawer, but i love anything to do with Math's, Number's and Sequences like the Fibernachi sequence for instance. The Alien part of the movie didn't appeal to me, but the number's and sequence of events leading to something was very intriguing to me. 8.5/10....with or without the Alien tilt to the story Haven't seen Close encounters cos it look utter pants!lol I think this screen shot speaks for itself: LOOKS SHITE!Got to be a work?

I can't see Tiger losing, but i agree with you better value at some other stage within tourney.
Furyk, and Ogilvy being the close to him.
And some value e/w - KJ Choi, (always consistent 110/1) JB Homles (hits it a mile 200/1)

Now lets look at it from the other side.
Two police women working in a town.
Trying to cope with the snappy February weather as well as having to wear a load of kit, stab vests, extra clothes etc, our gaze falls across macho Mr 'macho' Man, thinking he's all that while eating pies in his shell suit that looks like its fresh from Liverpool docks, so full of himself is he that he thinks he can do the old dunking shot into a nearby waste bin, and to their amusement he misses. Now, there is enforcement that states that litter louts have to be pulled up, given spot fines and so on, but thankfully it looks like the guy is not so much of a prat after all, he's bending down to pick up his litter. We're relieved at this, as we don't really like dealing with these types of prats. But, it's our job and sadly we must if needed.
Oh no, what's happened, macho guy has stopped once he's seen us, what is he doing? We both are praying that we don't actually have to go and talk to him, more paperwork, FOL.
We'll do the folding arm thing, then he'll realise we've seen him, and hopefully that'll be the end of it... oh sod it, he's walking away, no we'll have to speak to the damn fool. FOL +2
"Excuse me Sir..." we tell him what we've seen, we tell him what the law allows us to do, but Mr Pieman thinks he's a hard man now, he's going to tell us what is going to happen. Shit, we really don't need this, deal with drunks all evening, out in the freezing cold and now we have to deal with idiots in the high street too. We just don't get paid enough for this.
By the time we've listened to the poor deranged fool, the littler has blown away. No need to inform this guy though, we can get a little mileage now from him and it'll give us something to talk about over a brew later. All of a sudden he makes this little run down the high street, shell suit flapping in the wind....
Do we really need to still speak to him and waste more of our lives, hell no, let him think he has one little victory this year.
I like this post, more than i can say about the original post. That is all.
