The List #2 - June 2010

Here's another thirteen things I have observed recently in no particular order of precedence.

1. Don't start a fight with an Apple fan-boy. The chances of you winning the fight are great. The chances of acquiring permanent mental damage are higher.
2. Not everything you read on the internet is true (Gosh I wonder why)
3. Web 2.0 is the beginning of the end of validated and correct information
4. Every politician on the planet has traded favours either with other humans or animals (aka other politicians)
5. A Vuvuzuela is not a noise-maker its a cultural cacophony in the making.
6. Software is meant to break. If you start cursing it, it will only get better (at breaking that is)
7. Your manager doesn't always know what's right so double checking never hurts
8. There is no substitute for naturally acquired talent. These people have something that a book doesn't offer - it's called skill.
9. A Dosa is a rejected Frisbee [Personal opinion of course]. Why anyone would put such a horrid thing in their mouth and lick their lips post it still baffles me. I have been trying hard for many years to understand it and in the process have subjected myself to this torture many times.
10. Tom Cruise might practice Scientology but that's because he doesn't get paid enough to follow anything else.
11. Adidas is and always will be better than Nike
12. Chaos at its peak is more entertaining than getting laid
13. Teaching is better than preaching
