Have you realized that post-911, you're guaranteed a slot of either war or terrorism or both on major news channels like BBC and CNN? It's usually the first topic on the main headlines. Which pretty much tells us what the world has come to (or how much emphasis the media puts on the topic). We humans (or the war-loving human species) will never learn to make peace. If it isn't Hitler and his Nazi's, it's the Japanese. If it's not them, then it's the US and Iraq.
I don't reckon Saddam's execution did anything for the world except perhaps to show that the US likes to be in power and to signify a milestone in the war against iraq. And also for the Iraqi's...first step towards democracy. Then again, it was Saddam who built up his country's economy in the 1970's.
For me, however...life has not changed whatsoever by the execution of some president.

On a lighter note, i wasn't feeling too good today so i took a half-day off work. My manager said not to bother coming in tomorrow if i'm still not feeling so well. Temptation.
*must...resist...temptation*

I want to watch The Queen.
So much for trying to rent/buy dvd's. Renting one dvd costs as much as buying a pirated one. Well...at least the quality is better. And I don't plan to buy pirated dvd's anyway.
