I’m relaunching this blog because recently I keep finding so many great things online that I’d like to share. Subjects will include economics, globalization, art, politics, life and tech.
So get you RSS readers out and enjoy the show.

I might sound rude or immature or both, but this picture really made my day. It’s one of my former classmates from high school getting married. *ROFL*

If I ever look as ridiculous, please get me a gun, so that I can just kill myself. *ROFL* See the whole madness over here.

PS: Heroes and How I met your mother are back on air. This day keeps getting better and better. Still 5 minutes of it left. Really wanna see what’s gonna happen. *ROFL*

I just finished reading a really great book, you probably haven’t heard about yet. It’s by Timothy Brook and deals with the upcoming issue of globalization and all its various aspects.

As a liberal supporter of globalization you will love this book because it shows how adventurous souls from all around the world came together and exchanged goods and ideas. My favourite part is where the VOC (the Dutch East India Company) keeps hijacking Portuguese ships because they interfere with global trade.

Today I threw in a couple hours and updated the theme, tuned it a little bit and added a nice album showing off my flickr pics. Reminds me a little bit of paying my flickr fee to yahoo for the next year. Maybe after xmas. *gg*

Let’s examine the current situation and how we got here, then look at three possible alternatives for the future.
