Earlier tonight, as I waited for my porn to load, I was glancing through the who's who page on cricinfo, and I was surprised to see how many of their staff settled on cricket writing after starting out in marketing, of all things. Is that common? Personally, I couldn't think of a worse fate in life than a career in marketing... but I'm also in serious, crippling debt, so what do I know?
(And if you didn't think that last paragraph was just an excuse for me to post a Bill Hicks clip, well then... you obviously don't know me well enough.)
politics is the last resort of the scoundrels. Cricket writing, of the lazy bums, who see their moskha in being arm-chair critic.

I'd say cricket writing is the first resort of the lazy bum... and marketing what he resorts to when he has to sell out and "get a proper job."

There are plenty of jobs for lazy bums, trust me.

Now why don't they offer this cool high paying job to us bloggers... nah they don't. That's why it is better off watching porn instead :)... cheers... just stumbled upon your blog

If my bum wasn't feeling so lazy today, I'd be out there, writing on cricket.
