Kevin MuldoonI was watching the news tonight when it announced that KFC will be removing the ‘Fried’ part of their brand to replace it with ‘Grilled’ in order to promote a healthier image of their food. They will be trying out their new grilled chicken in in six cities — Indianapolis, Colorado Springs, San Diego, Oklahoma … Read more
At the end of June last year me and my friend Michael flew from Tokyo to Berlin to meet 9 of my friends who were over for a long weekend. For the first 3 days we stayed in East Berlin and the last 3 days we stayed with my friends on the west side, quite … Read more
I touched down in Glasgow this morning at 7am after a very enjoyable 6 days in New York. 9 of my mates booked up last year when I was still in New Zealand so whereas me and my friend George travelled direct from Glasgow, they had to all go via Amsterdam with a 4 hour … Read more

This time next week I will be sitting on a plane heading towards the Big Apple. 10 of us are heading over for a week to New York (and 5 or 6 friends of friends will be over at the same time). It’s going to be a pretty wild week with so many people going … Read more
Yesterday, JKOnTheRun (great site!) reported that MobiTV is trying to shut down HowardForums because of links to copyrighted material being posted on the forum.
