A great story!

I am currently very busy reading other blogs trying to make sure the ad's on fuelmyblog aren't spam, I came across this blog (not yet an advert) and it made me think. Take a look!

If you haven't seen this ad, you're going to have to! It is a creative genius at work and I believe it is a five star advertisement!
It's an ad from Bluecat Networks highlighting their Adonis series DNS and DHCP device.
It's been named 'The office platoon', if you want to know why, watch it!

According to Jade Goody on celebrity Big Brother it is......

Her(?)

The most 25th influential person in the world.

Fact.

More so than...who?

Who has more influence than her is the question.

Come on then, tell me...who is more influential than the Goody?

I can only think of around 20 million people...Let me know what celeb is less influential..maybe that'll be easier?

I didn't mean to mention it again, however, take a look at this review:-

I love it!!



I decided to make Fuelmyblog.com free to advertise for all bloggers.




I did it because ultimately, I wanted to create an index of all good blogs, by charging, I would be unfairly giving people that blog for money an advantage.




What is my angle?




Ultimately, fuelmyblog.com is quickly becoming more than a hobby, it is time consuming reading over all blogs added. I need to manually check for content and quality. I will be asking companies to sponsor the site as time goes on. My first few days have proved to be quite fruitful in terms of traffic. my alexa ranking peaked at 64,521 yesterday. This is due mainly to press releases and the effort put into promoting the free adverts.

So, over the next couple of weeks, I'll keep you updated.

Don't forget to get your free blog advert www.fuelmyblog.com

"No soul is desolate as long as there is a human being for whom it can feel trust and reverance" (George Eliot). I just read my first book of 2007 - a Christmas gift from my best friend - "The Friendship of Women The Hidden Tradition of the Bible" (Joan Chittister). I have many good male friends, and I am grateful for them, but there is something very special about friendships between women. Here's one quote: "Men, very often, conduct their friendships "side-by-side," in shared activities, in project development, in group play, in situations that bring no basic threat to power and demand no emotional vulnerability. Women, on the other hand, shape their relationships "face-to-face," in mutual dependence, in honest conversation, in exposures of personal weaknesses." I am so grateful for friends who can "go deep" with me; for friends I can be vulnerable and honest with. I am grateful for friends who take my pain or anger or self-centredness or deep joy - and accept me and love me without judgement. When I think of good friends, I think of people who have shared life with me - those who have been with me to share laughs and tears; ups and downs; adventures as well as every-day, ordinary life.

This past week I was speaking with my friend Grace. Her family is from Tanzania, and The Salvation Army has just appointed them back to their country. She has decided to leave her 4 kids in Zimbabwe so that they can get a good education (they lost 2 years in their move here, and Grace fears the same thing will happen if they bring them back). As she was talking about leaving her two youngest children in this country, Grace started to cry, and so did I. I was feeling Grace's mother heart. She kept apologizing for crying, but she shouldn't have - it was a beautiful moment of friendship that we could share. I will miss Grace...

Yesterday I went to Agnes' funeral. One of her friends gave a eulogy - talking about how they met in 1972 and had shared so many joys and sorrows. 35 years of stories, phone calls, troubles, jokes, visits... Most of the older women who are our neighbours attended - all walking to the church, crying and mourning together. I was sitting beside Ruth. Ruth is the one who was with Agnes in her final hours. Ruth also lost her daughter when she was just a teenager. Ruth spent much of the service weeping. At times I just let her cry. At times, I just put my arm around her and prayed for her silently.

"With true friends, even water drunk together is sweet enough" (Chinese proverb). With good friends, life is sweet - even if we're only sharing water. With good friends, we can face the darkness with hope. Thank God for good friends!

So, I am still awake, it is nearly 1am in France. I am launching the new site fuelmyblog.com (more later) and I thought I'd read the Sun for the first time in weeks, online.

Now is it me but...They are a bite behind aren't they? http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,4-2007000558,00.html I mentioned this Britney Spears thing on the 22nd December. Come on the Sun. You must surely have more to mention than that???

No seriously, I miss the old currant bun. A little bit of sport and celeb bullshit never hurt anyone. .did it?
