Quick thought.

While I was in work today I was incredibly bored (fast food places have weird patterns of busyness) and starting examining a Euro coin that I happened to have on me. It was one of those Italian ones that I seem to accumulate like mad, and I couldn't help but think about the image on the back. A bit more meaningful than the harp methinks.
I couldn't help but wonder though how Da Vinci would have felt about that if he were alive though. Can we consider him a sellout now? Maybe he'd just have felt revered what with money not having as many evil connotations back then (don't quote me on that).

Would you feel humbled knowing that something you created was sitting in the wallet of (most) every person in your country. (insert minor witticism about condoms)

Ba mhaith liom free stuff!

I'm starting a quest, to get as much free junk as I can from the internet. I don't care if it's useless, or if it has a logo splashed all over it. I just want the joy of something arriving in my letterbox that I didn't have to pay for. (that said, I'd rather not have people urinating through my letterbox)
Is that really so much to ask?
So I'm entering some competitions, following some newsletters and generally just wasting my time. I'm probably going to get a few viruses from dodgy websites, but it'll be a lesson well learnt.

This quest is pretty difficult seeing as most of these free samples won't get delivered to Ireland which is a major bummer. That said, I could have had a fine ugly and smelly chair from craigslist in Dublin. Or a pug/plethora of cats. Not sure how I feel about people giving away animals on websites, doesn't sit right with me for some reason. People are fine, don't get me wrong there, I'll gladly take a free human being :D
