- Gehoord:"Als je er een beetje goed uitziet ga je al snel door bij Idols". Het levende bewijs dat dat niet altijd op hoeft te gaan is de engelse winnares Michelle McManus. Waarmee ik niet wil impliceren dat ze een lelijk eendje is, maar alleen maar wil zeggen dat ze niet de standaard 'mooie vrouw' [slash] idool is!Overigens heb ik nog nooit een nummer van haar gehoord - ben benieuwd! |

- AKMA's Random Thoughts which refered to an article by Karen Armstrong which argued that "...we need religious people to be proactive in reforming their own traditions away from extremism" because "[r]eligion is the creation of human beings, who are biologically programmed for aggression". Despite the fact the "[w]e dream of peace" we end up "slaughter[ing] our own kind". AKMA is annoyed because of her pressumption to speak for the religions of the world. I am annoyed because her skepticism makes it impossible for her to discuss her subjects in good faith. |

- Cards for 500 of my closest friends.... Hugh aka gapingvoid, one of my favorite online cartoonists, let me pick a cartoon and sent me 500 business cards with my contact info on once side, and this image on the other.
