    When Bob gets a costume for a certain event, like his bday, how long does he look that way? I mean, if the event happens to fall on a Tuesday, would the costume last from 12 midnight Monday in Australia to 12 midnight Tuesday in USA or would it last only 24 hour period for a given timezone?

        I don't know, but there is some overkill caching going on. My desktop says, 'We're 11' on the image, my tablet says 'We're 12'. Yesterday when the image was changed to the birthday one, my desktop caught the original '11' one, now its stuck there, well it was until I had done several CTRL-F5's!

          Heh, you'd think a birthday image would have a cache control header of less than one year.

              The spelling is correct (capital W), but the grammar is wrong (period or excalamation point is missing).

                I've been known to find myself wearing the same clothes a day after my birthday, not making my way back home after a night of celebration.

                It was broke, so I fixed it.

                  Usually into the middle of the following day, until he sobers up, gets up from the puddle of beer and stumbles to the shower. Sometimes it's worse: I remember once, when he disappeared in the middle of the night, with a sixpack of beer and a bottle of whisky in his hands, mumbling something about going to Tijuana and showing up three days later, still wearing the same clothes, several hundred bucks short and some strange and definitely not kid-sister-safe tattoos richer. Why, the usual behaviour you would expect from any 12 year old...

                          It should be "We're 12!". Sounds like Bob has multiple personalities. :)

                              Bobs real shy and he won't change until no one's looking.
