VIP's of 2005

According to Time magazine the most important persons of 2005 were Bono and Bill Gates and his wife.
Bono is for 2005 what Bob Geldof were for the 1980's. Being the influential person that he is he has used his influence in a great way. Making people aware of what is going on in the world today: famine, HIV and poverty. I do give money to the MSF since I think they are really doing a great job where it is needed not just in the places we read about in the papers.

Today it has been one year since the big Tsunami in Thailand and Indonesia. There where lots of Swedish people who traveled to Khao Lak, where the most Swedes where killed, for a memorial. Now, don't get me wrong it was a huge disaster and many people lost loved ones. But people die everyday. 225 000 where killed in the Tsunami, one month later another 225 000 in the 3rd world had died but from famine, HIV and other diseases.... where are the memorial services for them???
It has also been one year since my grandfather died. Tonight I'll play a game of chess in his memory. He taught me to play chess when I was 6 and poker when I was 8.

Who are my VIP's of the year?

Obviously my sis - we've had some great times this year. I stayed with her from beginning of May to beginning of June. Can't believe she put up with me :)

My girl Gonzo - for all the drinks (and hangovers ;)) and the positive energy and inspiration.
I would not be as divalicious as I am if it wasn't for her.

Joachim - seriously, he is a great guy and he has helped me a lot with all sorts of things. And regardless of what has happened between us he is important to me.

Last but not least Dr C - started with a cup of coffee and who knows where it will end ;)

Take care
Song of the day: POPular - Darren Hayes
