A quick list

Thank you e.tv for having enough sense to buy Six Feet Under and also for having the conviction to continue serving it up for us, even if ratings (most probably) aren't that high. It really is gratifying to watch something once a week that actually really really makes you think, unlike some of the reality tv crap that's managed to find its way on to our tvs (think Strictly come dancing).
Thank you HBO for making a series so unconventional, yet so utterly brilliant. So much so that I think I need to start amassing the dvd box sets.
Thank you
Ricky Gervais for making me laugh as much as you did when i listened to your final guardian podcast last night. Still not sure whether i'm going to dole out R50 four every four episodes of season two... mmmm....
Thank you to whoever started that silly 75 questions ms word email forward thing. Been very interesting to see the responses.
Thank you Fresh, Thato and Mpho for playing awesome music and for making me laugh in the mornings... even if it is only for 26 more days :(
Thank you FNB for my credit card. Makes life sooooo much easier.
Thank you
Amazon UK for sending me Freakonomics when I asked for it. One hundred bloody rand cheaper than Exclusive Books.
Thank you
Opera for designing Opera Mini so that I can browse the net and check mail on my phone... very cool. Screw you Motorola-piece-of-kak-proprietary-broswer!
Thank you salami from killarney, whoever the hell you are -
splattermail cracks me up.
Thank you to The Killers for making the most amazingly awesome album ever.

Just some random thoughts that came to me while I was eating lunch... pretty tempted to do a sarcastic one now... just a thought. may use it. may not.

What made my day today: Windscreen-washer man Godfrey at the Glenhove offramp. No matter how crap I'm feeling (not that I was felling kak today), he manages to make me smile.

Now listening to: A colleague talking to someone on the phone about something or other...

Belief eet because eet's true... Hilton actually updated!

Freakonomics was a bit of a let-down I thought. Bought it for my dad for Christmas and read it before I sent it (because I'm cheap like that) and thought it was pretty average. A very guy book though.
