gestern (Dec 11 2003 15:25 GMT) - "Mambo Italiano" war ganz lustig, aber doch nicht so lustig, dass man sich die ganze Zeit vor Lachen nur so wegwerfen müsste, wie das Publikum bei "Verzaubert" das in dieser Vorstellung getan hat.

The prevasiveness of advertising is an issue which I'd like to be writing about more often, since I think it's really an important problem. And this afternoon, I begin nearly 24 hours of airline fun en route to Australia.
