... and I'm back!

Back at work today... not so exciting. Seems like we had ourselves a lill post-easter madness sale; this place was like a whore house. Anyway, I'm here, alive and kicking.

... What the hell possessed me to go gyming at 6am??? JACO you are the devil! hehehe.

Some other good news: The OC has been renewed for Season 3, which should be starting in September!! Yay!!!

Celebrity Sighting

Well, not really, but this weekend Peter Pollock is at our church talking about his life story. He is the father of Shaun Pollock, who is arguably one of South African Cricket's most successful fast bowlers since the days of Alan Doland.

I Went to a businessmen's breakfast on Friday morning where Peter was talking, and it was pretty cool. He speaks really well and probably spoke for close on an hour, but had everyone's attention the whole way.

Who actually believes this crap?

I got this email this morning when I logged in. Who actually believes this crap?

Anyway, I thought I'd send a reply, since he was being so nice.... (Reply follows)

> Dear Tom

It is really good to hear from you. I am over the moon that a TV personality such as yourself would contact little old me. I take it that the real estate business is doing a bit better than the detective work? Well anyway, just so you know, I personally thought you were the best TV detective ever!

Thank you so much for considering me, even though I hadn't made an application. Your insight in to my wanting to purchase a home is truly remarkable. How you can offer a $400 000 homeloan at such a low rate, AND the fact that I could be blacklisted really escapes me, but well done!

I tried going to your website, but funnily enough it doesn't seem to exist. Do you know what a 404.htm error is?

Regards,
Grant.
