So I was shopping on Amazon today....

    and this popped up in my suggested purchases.

    No idea why anybody would by this but the reviews on this thing are nothing short of genius :D
    Much like a badger using a cloaking device on a dark night, this 10x8 print of Paul Ross has been sadly overlooked by the general public.

    The reasons for this remain largely unclear. Was it Ross' open-mouthed, alluring pose? Or perhaps the lack of respectable foliage in the background? Whatever the reason, it should not put you off this wonderful print of the man whose name you see on Billboards everywhere (normally alongside the word 'Fabulous' and 5 glowing stars).

    The quality of the print - which hangs in the hallway of my flat and leaves guests slack-jawed in wonderment - is simply phenomenal. You can make out literally every smile line on Ross' face and he stares, goggle-eyed, into the lens of the proud photographer. As an added bonus, the matt finish also makes it easily washable should you accidentally spill tea or cranberry juice on it. It can also be used as a sort-of scarecrow, as it has recently been discovered that large birds suffer from a fear of high-quality film reviewing.

    Compared with the more popular 20" canvas print, this version is perhaps more suited to the hallways and bathrooms of the world and it has clearly proved less of a seller than it's more glamourous companion, but, nevertheless, the quality and talent which has gone into creating this materpiece cannot be denied.

    A must-buy for anyone who, like me, simply cannot get enough of the man they call Paul 'five-stars' Ross.

    Nah, he can speak properly though.

    Had his own TV/ radio shows and such like at some point.

    For months I've been carrying around with me the original 20" canvas print of the phenomenal Paul Ross. It's been great of course, but at times became a little cumbersome when out shopping, going to work and fetching my medication. People would often stop and talk to me about it around town and on the bus on my way home, what with it being an excellent conversation piece. However it was a little awkward at times if my bus stop was coming up and they were in full flow extolling the virtues of Paul Ross. Finally MirrorPrintStore has seen this gap in the market and has grasped it by producing this excellent 10" portable print. Now you can enjoy Ross anywhere, in the park, on public transport, or even on the beach. The world is your oyster as they say. It's lightweight and durable so is easy to slip it in your bag without fear of it getting damaged.
    :D

    Yeah and this one:
    Good but problems, October 28, 2009, Jamie O'Shaughnessy (UK)

    This awesome bit of kit changed my life. The extra hours of work I could get in whilst driving on the freeway has made me so much more productive. In fact I directly attribute this to my improved bonuses and recent promotion! If you want to get ahead, get one of these.

    There is one problem though. In several accidents that I have had whilst using this, the airbag causes the laptop screen to slam shut. I've suffered several broken fingers because of this. I have started to look around for airbag finger protection but have not yet found any...
