Cameleon on a mirror

If you put a cameleon on a mirror, what color would it become?

Brothers in arms

Just saw Lord of War. I always thought Nicholas Cage's best performance was in Leaving Las Vegas, and I still do, but this was really good!

TV-Party!

I was delighted to see the first new seasons of TV-shows starting this week. On a regular basis I download:

• Prison Break
• The Office US
• Top Gear
• Fifth Gear
• The Daily Show
• The Colbert Report
• Whose Line is it Anyway
• The Green Screen Show
• Joey
• My Name is Earl

On norwegian TV I also watch:

• Late Night with David Letterman
• Myth Busters
• Walkabout
• Beat for Beat (The Lyrics Board)
• (can't remember any more..)

Update: Oh man, a mate reminded me I totally forgot 24! 24 is the best TV-series I have ever seen! I ordered season 1, 2 and 3 a while back but unfortunately I just recieved season 2 this christmas. I saw throught it (it's the one with the A-Bomb, and the war on the middle-East) and I think it's absolutely one of the best 24-seasons as of yet.

8 days and season 5 starts - can't wait!! The 15th they will air a 2 hour episode, followed by another 2 hour episode the following day, then it will return to the usual 1-hour a week scheme.

Update 2: 24 starts January 15th, not 16th.

Workout

I wonder how early man realized that physical training really worked. This caveman was out running for an hour and got really sweatty, tired and exhausted. One day later all his muscles were hurting like hell since it was the first time - remember; running and working out was not yet invented. He could not do much work all day. At what point did he put his finger in the air and go "AHA! This is making me stronger!"?

If you like me don't like working out, doing one first intensive workout, getting over the pain the next day or two does NOT make you feel great! That is bullshit, and just in your head! After a week or two maybe, but not the first time.

After eventually discovering this, did our caveman keep putting his finger in the fire thinking "just one more week and it'll start getting better!"?

Incidently I thought about this while doing my first jogging/workout last night. Just to get some more energy in the cold, dark winter. Hopefully in two weeks it will pay off ;-)

Braille

Idag feirer Google bursdagen til Louis Braille, mannen som oppfant blindeskriften. Jeg har alltid funnet det ironisk at skrift for blinde folk heter Braille-skrift (uttales "brille"...) ;-)

Jim'll Fix It

Remember this guy? I guess not if you didn't grow up in England (I lived there for two years way back). I must say I really enjoyed the show, and I still remember the theme song "Jim'll fix it for you, you, you, yoooooou!" :-D Actually his name is Sir(!) Jimmy Saville and he claims he has raised over £40 million for charity over the passed decades.

Now, I am trying to track down another TV-idol from the late 80's/early 90's - ha was on a TV marketing show from America, he would always wear the same ugly sweater (it reminds me of one Bill Cosby used to wear and was really the ting to use in the early 90's!) and got pretty famous for that. He was always really happy and would do crazy stuff with what he was trying to sell (like stick his hand in a blender to demonstrate it was unharmful) and my best description would be a cross between Chevy Chase and Bob Saget, wearing Bill Cosby's sweater.

Illness

A while back I remember listening to the news where they were saying that the government or whatever wanted to reduce the amount of sickleave. They quoted someone saying that there was a big problem with ppl taking 3 days off after partying in the weekend. WHERE IS THIS PARTY!? WHAT AM I MISSING OUT ON!!?
