Today’s fun fact:
Paris Hilton’s Sidekick account was broken in to because the password reset security question on the T-Mobile Sidekick site is… *drumroll* “What is your pets name?”. If that doesn’t ring any bells, that infamous trollop’s pet dog a chihuahua, is quite well known, as is its name “Tinkerbell
I find that a piece of blissfully hilarious inane trivia.

Made an order this afternoon from SAGE for work and stressed it was urgent. The sales guy said that if he made the last order processing of the day we should have it by tomorrow. Who should meet my boss as he was leaving the office this evening? The sales guy with the ordered product and an apology that he didn’t make the last order of the day so he delivered it by hand. Talk about going the last mile. It wasn’t even a big order. I’m quite stunned but very pleased.

Mackers is back from his South American trip. He somehow found time to document the trip in a very eloquent manner, words start here, pictures start here. I thought this picture was my favourite holiday photo of all time, and surely worthy of recognition, until I saw this one. I hope he will soon regail us with tales of how he and his beloved torch fended off wild boars, golden condors and El Chupacabra with little other than the promise of white pudding, Guinness and a shave waiting for him at home to keep him going.

Tomorrow is Karl’s birthday. He will be old o’clock years. We’re all going to the Market Bar after work. You should come too.

    These people don’t know what 40’s are but I’ll do it, just for you.

    Nice one, dude. It was sometimes difficult to get to somewhere to type them up and was always an effort to get the photos up.

    It’s good to know someone got something out of the stories and pictures.

    By the way, the new site is slick. I like it.

    “infamous trollop” is a great expression :-)

    Why does everyone hate her so much though? The first two comments on that page you linked to are

    “I wish this slut would get stalked” and “how great would it be if somebody shot her.”

    Shit! What did she do?

    Heh, even I, one of those who are almost criminally underinformed and disinterested in the whole cult of celebrity thing know what that doggie is called.

    I was gonna rant about Ms Hilton and the Cult of Celebrity thing… but I won’t pollute your fine website with it.
    I’ll stick it in me own LJ after lunch :P

    Tanya,

    She’s very famous, very rich and not very smart. Her fame and fortune are inherited. She has no talents or obvious endearing qualities but yet has become a media darling simply because she exists.
    The phenomenon of famous nobodies and the people who love to hate them isn’t really new, Paris is just this decade’s/generation’s pick.

    One of those people who are famous just for being famous…

    To be fair, all her fame isn’t inherited. Most of it is a direct result of a widely distributed video of her fucking.

    Which makes me think, Luba Hegre could rule the world with a decent publicist. And that world would be a better place.
