I'm probably going to piss off a bunch of people with this; but Blondie, the story about the guy who gets married, builds a lot of things, and then is discarded like so much trash, yes, it happens - but at the same time, this guy in question could have probably seen this coming a mile away...

Ah, good. I did however proceed to contemplate the benefits of lots of coffee early in the morning, and threw "world peace" in there just for good karma.

Try a Circle K down the road from Sanur. Most Circle K's I've been to have Drum Shag but it's often in short supply. Especially around Sanur, what with all us Dutch folk ending up there.
