Tid bits

midweek brief..

Hosibitali
I am literally back from the dead this week. On the weekend i got the diagnosis that my right lung had collapsed, a medical case known as a pneumothorax. Totally spontanious, this thing is common in tall, lanky individuals such as yours truly. yeah , search me. I then was admitted to the emergency room, brutally invaded with a metal rod and tube in the chest, and spent sato and sunday high on morphine. Miraculously I am in no pain now, 2 days after i had a tube in my chest. ahh the wonders of morphine and health insurance. Bottomline the things that i felt i learnt in that short spell of pain was that:
- cliche, but really you cant afford to take every HOUR of your health for granted. On any given sunday, you could be using up that precious hour waiting that hour through in a ostpital bed amidsta sea of uncertainty and fear.
- Family, doting and obnoxiously nurturing as they can be, are meant to be just that i guess. Perhaps it would annoy me more if they showed any signs of nonchalance to my emergency.
- Insurance = ALWAYS WORTH IT.


Kengen
Left , right, center front, nyuma. The hype is best decribed my initial feeling of by this article i read in the nation . The raw speculative demand on this one is really just a turn off for this equity option. I think the better thing to do is spend more time analysing the market and picking up on the blue chips that many have been so quick to let go of in preperation for the almighty KG. then again, I could be the same guy a year form now in tears that i did not follow up on this offering..hmmm can i live with the regret? Can you?

Winter blues
Walking to work leo..it was relatively warm! Are we begining to experience the fringes of this beast of a season? I wouldnt place my moeny on it.but it cant hurt to hope...

Addicted
To the Daily show & the colbert report - their approaches to humor are similar yet so distant form one another, but equally satirical masterpieces. Charlie Rose on PBS is also great like reading a biography a day really. Some really interesting Americans out there. But really, none does it for tense drma like 24. Every eposide of this season has been lik watching an entire of the previous season. Kwani those writers/producers are on which kind drugs? i want some of that!!! Me and Chris are forming a Jack Baur fan club. We were thinking o starting by makign the shirts to signify our total idol worship of this man. ..but were not sure if we are the only ones in and over our heads...
