My Mandatory Birthday Blurb 2010

Yes its that time again.. one more year has passed.. and I am older by one year. As you can see, I've not written anything for over 2 months. Very slack of me I know. Even then, in may, it was a copy paste article. Maybe its because Blogging is so 5 years ago? Nah, that's just a lame excuse. I'm just lazy, I always have been I suppose. Almost 'sloth-like' as my mom would put it.

Kudos to Simon for his expansive blurbs about the World Cup which has just concluded. He, of course is the reason I started my blog years ago, and I'm glad to see that he is still going strong with his surprising interest in soccer. Must be all those years working in London.

What has happened in the last 12 months? Goodness, so many things to recall. I've been doing my usual traveling around Asia for work. It was nice to have my family with me one of those outings, a sort of working holiday in Phuket, that was fun. My son is now in first grade at a government school. We had to adjust to the lack of attention the teachers have for our child due to the student to teacher ratio. Also having to adjust to waking up early to send him to school. Just when you thought, as you get older you didn't have to do that anymore. One of life's bitter irony. And I just stubbed my toe on the way to the kitchen. Oh God it hurts more than usual. My daughter is almost 2 years old, and as the day go by, I find myself thinking of the fool that would eventually be called 'boyfriend' and that makes me very upset. I will kill that dweeb or anyone else that would threaten to spoil my precious.

My wife, of now 8 years, is still by my side and forever the voice of reason in my otherwise loony world. She still manages to bring a smile to my face at times of darkness and ever ready to shake my core with words of 'where is my house you promised me??'. Soon darling, soon... I say. Hopefully, one day, we will achieve our goals together.
Anyway, here is a list of famous people that share my birthday:-
1. Jesse 'The Body' Ventura (15-Jul-1951) WWF Wrestler turned Governor of Minnesota and was the dude in Predator with the vulcan machine gun.
2. Jan-Michael Vincent (15-Jul-1944) Sting Fellow Hawk from 80s TV series Airwolf.
3. Kim Alexis (15-Jul-1960) Top 1980s model
4. Brian Austin Green (15-July-1973) David Silver from 90s TV series Beverly Hills 90210
5. Eddie Griffin (15-July-1968) Star of Undercover Brother and was the pimp in Deuce Bigalow. Remember the phrase "Dont make me he-bitch-man-slap you!"
6. Ayatollah Khamenei  (15-Jul-1939) Supreme leader of Iran
7. Brigitte Nielsen (15-Jul-1963) Stared in Red Sonja and was married to Sly Stallone
8. Rembrandt (15-Jul-1606) Painted Anatomy Lesson of Dr. Tulp
Judging from this list, people born on this day, can either be great people in history or really crappy actors. So far I'm neither.... well, I did do a sub-standard commentating job for The Le Tour de Langkawi cycling race for TV, does that count?  A friend of mine put my name forward to do this, with absolutely zero knowledge of cycling, I foolishly said 'Yes'. Talk about undergoing the steepest learning curve ever. On the first day, I yelled out "and the guy in blue won!"... but at least by the end of the week I think I managed to sound like I knew what I was saying.

So here is to the next year ahead, and as always I give myself some massive boobs to stare at, just because I can.

Here is Jordan Carver, she is from Germany and is currently trying to dethrone big boob legend, Denise Milani as the number one internet pinup girl. Her boob to waist ratio is unreal. Surreal almost. Really. Just take a look!
