Ok guys, Just an FYI. I'll be gone for over a month. Im going to China with my dad and then over to London. I'll try to get on when I can, but I prolly won't be able to because China's well, blocked from some sites. I wouln't be making this to let 'yal know if it wasn't for that. But if anyone is in London, I'd love to meet up- If so email me at
brogdenlaxmiddie@hotmail.com.... Im pretty sure the Chinese haven't blocked that.

Last time I checked, SpudFiles was not blocked in China, nor is there any reason SpudFiles should be blocked there.
Yes, I am the guy that owns & operates SpudFiles (along with our extremely helpful moderators).

Well I thought that it might since it's blocked at schools as a "weapons" site. But I'll check, right now I'm at the airport and have a quick few seconds. Maybe I can be the first one to post something from China

From what I gather, the Chinese government isn't quite as stupid as the average public school board. They likely realise, like we do, that these devices don't pose any real threat as weapons.
Good luck with your trip, and don't get arrested in China

I'll try not to. The government is bringing my dad and his lab to china for 2 weeks to set up some stuff. Gosh, It would be cool if I built a spray and pray and shot it over the great wall. I'll look into doing that

Thanks for letting us know rather than dissappearing.
Hope you find a way to get online there.
Can't say I'll miss your avatar or interests in your profile (Dang that's strange).
You have had good posts and replies though IMO. 8)

Haha. Yeah, airport security will be all over your ass if you bring in a bunch of PVC pipe and put it throught the scanner thingy. Does China even distribute PVC (or ABS or whatever other pipe there is) commercially:?:

Tedder, why the heck are your going to China?
You do know they’re Communists right?

:D:D:D
(for those who can’t tell:
means I’m joking.)
I’m with THUNDERLORD, I wish you’d change that avatar of yours, this is supposed to be a family friendly website you know.
Let us know when you're back state side!

Forget Chinese security. Heathro(London) will have you begging for mercy. Talk about some annoying tripe to get through. Just short of a full body cavity search...
But have fun China. Get ya' some real chinese food. The old grannies can make a mean roast duck!
