And then there's all the pretend injuries and exaggerating little scratches for the camera and ref. I don't watch sports but seeing that crappy behavior vs what rugby players go through is embarrassing to the footballers. I was al

I'm happy to give them (telekom) money because their service works. Vodafone was constantly inferior in my experiences (dsl vs cable as well as their mobile networks). At least i don't have to call vodafone every month like my nei

When i was single I used to pack a spare (smaller, older) phone on bigger trips, one would stay off in my daybag/backpack to be used in case something happened and my regular was in my pocket. Now, yeah, it's silly to pack it as m
