Purchasing oneself a dodgy Indian chicken curry (take away) to eat back at the hotel. How's that?

Ok, I guess.
Lately any time I offer my patronage to a food vendor of ambiguous brown-skinned ethnicity I can't help but get the feeling that I just inadvertently funded more nukes for Iran.
Stupid, I know.

To the uninitiated, curry (it its multitude of varieties) is now the number one most popular food in the UK. 'Getting a curry' is a national pastime here.

Unfortunately, curries tend to be too spicy for most American tastes, which is why its so damned difficult to find a decent curry house over there. You have chinese and mexican takeaways by the truckload, but you're missing out on the tastiest takeaway of all. At least most of the time. As Andrew must have discovered, not all curries are created equal!

Huh? What kind of xenophobic claptrap is that? What has a food style originating from a (mainly hindu) far eastern country got to do with troubles in a middle-eastern country. I don't know what the food is like in Iran, but I'm pretty sure they don't often prepare a chicken madras or a lamb bhuna.

I love Journey, but wouldn't be caught dead in one of those tacky 80's nostalgia shirts.

The one currently being sold on-tour looks stellar.
Has a scarab rising from the flames of irrelevancy.


I hope they use it for the next album cover.

They look cool as hell. Great idea by someone. First saw Jeff wearing one onstage. They are not cheap, so wanted to make sure they are worth while. :shock:

Had I known where I knew you from I would've done. Seems a bit pointless though going over to someone and telling them you have no idea who they are but they look familiar to you!
