'I was having this awful nightmare that I was 32. And then I woke up and I was 23. So relieved. And then I woke up for real, and I was 32.' - Celine, Before Sunset

The difference between getting laughs and getting laughed at...

Do you find that people like you only when you make them laugh? I do sometimes. I get the full attention with my one-liners but get the cold shoulder with my point of view. Do you find yourself not being taken seriously just because you're funny. I do sometimes. They listen intently for my jokes but they question my arguments.

You tell jokes. You are a joke. Does it equate?

They look like us now...

A quick follow-up to my last post...

Star Trek + 24 + The Shield = Battlestar Galactica



The Cylons are back! And damn... they sure look hot! Once machines of destruction become instruments of deciet and insurrection. This "naturalistic science fiction" examines contemporary social, moral and ethical issues with a human fleet of survivors and a sole milary spaceship to protect them from a resurgent and cunning enemy. Faster than light travel, laser gun fights, political conflicts & the backstabbing of power tripping lunatics are all in full feature.

Of Space Westerns & Horny Interns

Primetime Television at its best!

Star Wars + The Magnificent Seven = Firefly














Actually, in this case, it's Magnificent Ten. Nine souls travelling through the blackness of space on board one Firefly-class ship they call home - Serenity. The ship and each one of its passengers have their insecurities. Insecurities that will bring them closer together and farther apart. If you want adventure, intrigue and loads of witty humour, this one's for you.


ER + Scrubs + Sex and the City = Grey's Anatomy















You just have to watch this show. Sandra Oh... Patrick Dempsey... House is overrated! This one is golden! I would not even tell you guys what the series is all about. You just have to watch this show.

Note to the reader: Please leave a message if you wish to inquire how to get hold of episodes of the above shows. I will be more than happy to assist.

Hold off buying those tech devices dear...

There is never a good time to buy a new mobile phone or mp3 player. You think you like the 2 megapixel camera phone now? Wait until one with wireless internet capability comes out. You think you like the mp3 player with video playback? Wait until one with better battery life and storage capacity comes out.

Things are moving fast. Consumers need to be vigilant to stay on top of the digital now. Here are a few items I currently have my eyes on that would surely be old news in a week or two:

The Creative Zen Vision:M



The Nokia N91



The Optimus Keyboard



Don't even think of buying an HD-DVD / Blue-ray player anytime soon.
