Is this the biggest cheque EVER? For Zimbabwe $1,072,418,000,000,000 ... or about £2

Officially the inflation rate in Zimbabwe is 2.2 million percent, however unofficially it's been calculated as high as 12.2 million. That's crazy. The article goes on to state that the newly created $100 billion note was no longer enough to buy a loaf of bread so they made a new $1 that is worth ten billion.

Last Night's Dream

Last night I dreamed that one of our co-workers comes over for breakfast every morning. Sometimes she brings food, sometimes we cook... apparently she dines so frequently that she has a key to the place as well. Pretty interesting considering she's never come over to our house before.

Dad Started a Blog

So my father has been writing journal-type entries and notes for years now. I've been trying to convince him to start a blog since the beginning. He's finally decided to go for it. There are only two entries so far but I expect there will be many more (he's made over 300 of these writings) Some are humorous, some are serious. If you read them you can definitely tell where I get my sense of humor from. Here's one: Airlines Stink

Warren Zevon

I forgot Jerry Garcia played on some of Warren Zevon's songs until I decided to listen to him on the bus ride home.

TEST

Test to see if this will cross-post to LJ.

New Blog

What the hell, I figured I might as well set up a blogger account too. Not sure how often I'll updated it or if I'll set it up to feed over to LJ but we'll see what happens...
