As weird as it gets...

I must say the article on CNN on "The Dumbest Moments in Business 2009 made for an interesting read.
My (two) personal favorites from there included Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein going over the board confessing to 'a Times of London reporter that he was just a banker "doing God's work.".... For $43 million a year'....:D thanks to David Ellis for delivering this good news to us all..

Next on the list would be the desperate effort by All Nippon Airways to unburden the Boeing 777 of certain unwanted load (in this case,stuff in the human bladder of humans of course), all for the sake of reducing the over all weight of the on-flight-baggage,saving fuel and reducing greenhouse gas emissions!!!..how much of it actually worked is undisclosed (for obvious reasons one would infer) but the effort did make it to my list of "are you for REAL people????"...thanks to J.P. for this insightful info on the creative execution of common sense (or rather, the lack of it) :P

To Blog or Not To Blog..

The dilemma of whether to write or just waste away the ever impregnating thoughts in my mind finally reached a consensus of letting themselves out (no matter how vague they might seem or appear), after the silent New Years' Eve that I spent in quiet and peace doing what I know I am not too good at-contemplating the year gone by. Well the entirety of credit can't be bestowed fully upon the populating ideas in my head but rather and more honestly to my fruitless effort at being unable to conjure up pictures of moments witnessed, thoughts provoked and feelings evoked, at the call of my will.
So I decided to share what my mind perceives, of things that I do and those that I wish I could do (like not knowing how to swim while in New Zealand, or never getting my backhand in tennis right, or even better, never being able to get up in the morning until its 10:00am and not being able to sleep until its way past 3:00am...and its endless) but the good news though is that I started working on them this New Years :) I just started with my blog..duh..
But besides, played tennis for 2hours and must say, the backhand looks promising...dined with David Smith savoring "FREE LUNCH" ...took pictures wherever and whenever I felt the beauty of New Zealand was too precious to be missed and yes, called up loved ones to wish them the pleasantness of this year which I so wish for myself.

Not a bad start huh for a self proclaimed procrastinator :D
