I don’t normally watch TV but I did watch some talk-show yesterday. The scenario is very likely set-up and probably so all the scripts are.

However, there was this 40 year old woman trying to marry a 20 (or something) year old guy. And then the showhost goes like: “But have you ever thought about what’s it going to be when you’re 60 and he’s 40?” and the woman just replied: “I have thought about that. But whatever time I have, I want to be happy“. The sentence just got quickly forgotten in the show and I didn’t even watch it till the end (it was boring). Just wanted to outline what a great quote that was. ;)

There is this story on Metro (which I actually found on digg) about Japanese women buying sheep thinking they were poodles.

Entire flocks of lambs were shipped over from the UK and Australia to Japan by an internet company and marketed as the latest ‘must have’ accessory.

But the scam was only spotted after a leading Japanese actress said her ‘poodle’ didn’t bark and refused to eat dog food.

This is hillarious.

Have I mentioned that I like podcasts? Possibly you know, though. I even have a site dedicated to podcasts.

So, I have found out a new podcast to listen to. It’s called the Math Grad podcast and is available at www.mathgrad.com. I came accross this site par hasard, listened to one episode, liked the way he described the Monty Hall problem (a mp3 link) and subscribed. If you have any interest in math, I would recommend you this podcast. Well, at least so far it’s so good.

Talking about podcasts, I also really like say JapanesePod101. I do only listen to the culture classes at the moment, though. Anyway, I would get back to the topic. If everything goes. :)

I am not the biggest fan of digg out there. What I am saying is, I don’t spend hours browsing it. However, whenever I come to the digg’s front page I can pretty much all the time see at least a few stories from the Top 10 which interest me. I thought, maybe I could subscribe to the Top 10 RSS feed, but it seems such an option is not available. Well, too bad.

Maybe I should subscribe to the sciences stories feed as these are often good. Who knows, I could be posting this from the future.

P.S. This is the 14 of March. The pi day (3.14). “How I want a drink, alcoholic of course, after the heavy lectures involving quantum mechanics!” - there you go, pi to 14 places. Oh well…

Does anybody watch Lost? Okay, I know they do. But in case if you don’t or you are not into the third season (or a good half of the second), you can just skip this.

So, anyway, I was checking the wikipedia page on the creators of the Enlightment and in the page of Montesquieu there is his photo. Now, do you remember Benjemin Linus (or Henry Gale) from Lost? Either this is just me, or, well, you see.

Now, in the rear case if you don’t know who Montesquieu is, he is a famous person in the Enlightment along with John Locke (or should I say John Lock…).

This may be just another conincidence, though. :)

I’m not that used to playing games like this but this one is very addictive. Found it by chance via a blogsearch. It’s called Flash Element TD and it seems it’s been going viral lately. Well, no wonder.

I have played for like 10 minutes and made only something above 500, though. ;)
