why wy?

In the tech section of the papers today, they featured the philippe stark mouse, and I loving caressed the life-sized picture to see how it would fit in my hand. It simultaneously dawned on me that it was an incredibly geeky thing to do, even though it was a stark. Then again, it is pretty plain for a stark (ha ha , stark, get it?) so I wouldn't buy it. And it's not cordless.

There was also (in the tech section) 1) a swiss army knife that came with a USB drive (64, 128); 2) a beautiful, sexy olympus digital camera, the mju mini. Six colours.

I was telling nick about how i was a star wars kid, when he pointed out: "So, you were a geek even then."

Am currently listening to Sheila Chandra, a womad sort of singer with a hauntingly beautiful voice. Nothing to do with geeks. Go listen on amazon if you can.
