Its all Rigged!



I am really getting fed up with all these top 100 thnigs that come out on TV and in magazines nowadays. They all say "You decide", "Only your votes count", etc... But i just cant believe that people would vote like that.

Take those 100 hottest/sexiest polls that you find in magazines so often, now I understand that not everybody has the same taste or liking, everyone is different. So that would explain the odd surpirise entry or ommission.
And of course there are the you-have-way-to-much-spare-time-on-your-hands people who vote like a million times for something or someone they want in the list.

So I definately disagree with these polls, especially those that say "... in the world" or "... in the country" because most of the time its people repeatedly voting for their favorites.

So to prove a point, I voted at least about 70 times for Jennifer Walcott (pictured) in the recent FHM 100 Sexiest Women in the World poll. And to my horror, she still didnt make it into the 100. So all I can conclude is that they just put in who they want for their own reasons (Sponsors, etc).

But honestly, surely Jennifer is at least good enough to make into the nineties!
BOTTOMLINE - Its all Rigged!

DISCLAIMER: Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against FHM, I think its a great magazine - I only used them because I read it so often, it was just an instinctive choice.

The worst sensation in the world!??


It was raining today, quite hard.

Unfortunately when i woke up early this morning (around 6am) either it didnt look like it was gonna rain today or it was just too dark for me to tell? but i sure didnt wear the right shoes for the weather!
So now thanks to my self-induced porous shoes, I have been trouncing around in WET SOCKS! all day. This must be the worst sensation in the world! or atleast a close runner-up to having rotten potatoe evenly spread across your face with a butter knife.

Oddly enough, the resultant smell after I took my shoes off probably runs a close 2nd to rotten potatoes, in the worst smell on earth catergory. Funny how these two stick together?

"The Vortex of Unproductivity"


This powerful phenomenom is truely a Beast of the academic world.

I have LOADS!! of work to do, with deadlines piling up like a mountain -and what do I do? I ever so calmly stroll around the house in my slippers, make me a nice hot cup of tea, maybe some toast and then... sit in front of the TV/read a book (fiction)/play so FM2006/read the latest issue of "52"/watch anime on the PC, the list is endless. however? I dont know if anyone picked this up, but I didnt see "get down & do some work" in that list.
Odd, wouldnt that be logical thing to do, especially if im part of a team and am totally accountable for all my tasks?

I thought I was just lazy... But no, its all mother natures doing! and Im not alone, millions of people (ok! maybe thousands of people) are trapped in it as well.

Well until scientists figure out a method of prevention for this phenomenom - I say prevention as if your already stuck in the vortex, then there is no hope of getting out by yourself, its in the hands of a more powerful being, deciding whether you've overstayed or not.



For a more scientific look at this phenomenom, I recommend you check out the "research" those dedicated few at Piled Higher and Deeper are doing.

Just in time!

My choclate melted today in my pocket, luckily i was hungry and found it just in time before it had any chance of becoming a permanent resident in my pocket along with a 20c piece stuck to inners of my pocket by a fused combo of pocket lint, a frutus and some listerine. At least my pocket smells like tropical pine with a hint of mint now. Sure beats me jeans pocket which kinda smells like off apple & banana - funny thing is I only left a banana in there, wierd!?

Team work

Thats one thing I like about team work, if a meeting has been scheduled to discuss things with the project manager and problems inevitably arise - the person who unfortunately had to go and visit his mother at the hospital or had an appointment which he organised two weeks in advance which he had to attend, will ALWAYS be blamed for all problems that occur in the meeting - good luck to him if he ever attends another meeting.
Its just natural to blame others - human nature.

Faceless

This is gona be my new Avatar, pretty cool hey (the dude has no face!)
He's one of the characters in DC comics new Maxi-Series - "52". Very much a gimic in my opinion, spininng off after what happened in "Infinite Crisis" this title is released weekly, yes!, a comic every week for 52 weeks thats a whole year!

Another cool thing they have added into this enticing offer is a mini-documentary of the history of the DC Universe (DCU), which is must for all, especially if new to the DCU as they constantly refer to past events and underlying assumptions.

Bottomline is they just want to make money, preying on the poor comic book fan - ok got to go, they been bugging me to come and fetch the latest few issues of 52 as they have been festering there for the last few weeks as I have been patiently waiting for payday to arrive.
