i thought one of the smartest things in publication history occured last year when YOU were named Time Magazine's Person of the Year (2006).

this year, Time's Person of the Year (2007) is Russian President Vladimir Putin.

The Russian President was so money that he took dumps dressed in Armani suits on leather toilet bowls

Al Gore missed it narrowly.

But the question really is - what happened to you? And will you ever be on the cover of Time again?

the introspection began with the successful idenfication of a cello suite i've been looking for since watching the master and commander years ago. (i know its one of the most common baroque pieces ever, but for some reason i've not been able to find out what it was called)

anyway, so it's a chilled out sunday evening, the afternoon rain's just ended and a short working week's come to a close.

judging by the amount of time i have between now and dinner time, i highly doubt that this will be the post where i list out last year's achievements/moments/shortcomings. but still, i'd like to record this moment.

the end of the first week of a new year. possibilities stretch out. on friday before the champagne, before the karaoke, i received a telephone call which marked a definite first for me. how that happened, i'm not really sure how or who, but i'm well chuffed about it.

tonight after i take my parents for dinner, i have work to complete, an article to prepare and some bills to pay. maybe after that i'll get around to some serious retrospection...

meanwhile, if you're in possession of some good (cello please) classical music or guy movies (al pacino dvds, gangster movies and classic de niro stuff) kindly get in touch with me?
