Alright alright! Other than my usuals (Right hand side bar, scroll down, “Reading”), this is what I’ll be reading today:

Jeremy Clarkson’s columns: I was watching him on the Jonathan Ross show last night, and he is just too brilliant! Oh and I also spent the better part of yesterday watching Top Gear, and Jeremy is always the same. It was interesting seeing how much more relaxed and down to earth he is, compared to American actor Laurence Fishburne. The English are just TOO funny!

I found this link on Twitter through Adii, which I think I found through Chris (Who got engaged via his blog, congratulations again!), and it’s a guy called Derek Sivers. It starts off like this:

Two friends were at a party held at the mansion of a billionaire. One said, “Wow! Look at this place! This guy has everything!”

The other said, “Yes, but I have something he’ll never have: enough.”

Basically, Derek Sivers founded and wrote all the code for a website called CDBaby, which is an online distributor of independent music. He sold it for $22 million, and then proceeded to give virtually everything away. You can read that post HERE, entitled “Why I gave away my company to charity”

It’s a phenomenal post, and story, about how Derek lives his life. A quote from that story:

“I live simply.  I hate waste and excess.  I have a good apartment, a good laptop, and a few other basics.  But the less I own, the happier I am.  The lack of possessions gives me the priceless freedom to live anywhere anytime.”

Awesome times. Now if only I could start a $22 million business!

After watching the 2010 World Cup draw on Friday night, I was reminded of how far Makhaya Ntini has really come, from his early days where I used to think that he was the worst fielder ever! But he truly has grown beyond the sport, as seen in this article — HERE.

I’ll also be reading Luxist.com because it is awesome! (Try out an iPod for $231,776 –HERE)

And those are the additions to my regular list of must reads, sick!
