HACK Today was an odd day. My cough is back like a bad sequel and refuses to die. Of course today is the day that I spoke to about 150 people on the phone. Like relatives around a dying rich uncle. Bastards the lot of you. Quite a few conversations were with people I hadn't spoken to in the longest time. Funnily enough at least one chat I had was with a guy that I had just been googling after when he rang - Hello Phil! So last night we went to see what Greg Dyke had to say about Blair and the BBC. It was a fun event and it made me wish more people were forced to retire so that they could finally come out and call people names like the rest of us. Speaking of which... every person I've spoken today has had an opinion on the American elections and the majority of people seem to think that Kerry has it in the bag. I'm going to try and stay up and see how it all turns out. I have a bottle of cheap wine and a lot of coffee. As usual I am all about the false starts with NaNoWriMo and maybe now on Day Two I have maybe hit the right note. Check it out. Mike is blogging to: The Ramones
