I forgot to mention one of my more important ones:

Things that work, i really like things that just do as there supposed to without you having to mess about with them.

Stinkie

the original 'Star Trek' series
the three-part program Alain De Botton did on architecture
shortbread cookies
Bernard Malamud
a clutter free, well-organized work space (does it exist?)
my girlfriend
my cats
the early work of the Dutch writer Gerard Reve (I used to write for a living - but never will I be able to write like Reve)
This book: http://www.taschen.com/pages/en/catalogue/architecture/all/02926/facts.the_a_z_of_modern_architecture.htm
the plumber who once said to me: "No need to be ashamed, mate. It's not like we sh*t bonbons."
my former colleague Jim, a hard drinking, foul mouthed and ill tempered American in his sixties. Bush lover, right wing christian - but I adore him. Can tell a tall tale like no-one else. Helped me through a tough time. I never agree with him. Never.
seeing my friends grow up. They're doing well. I like that.

I've been enjoying this thread. Thanks to all for sharing. I took most of the text in the thread and fed it into a little online program called Wordle which produces a word/tag cloud of the words in the submitted text. Kinda fun.

Good. Nice cloud.

plot-paris

what a wonderful cloud.
I seriously consider printing it out and decorating my bedroom with it.
I like the idea of being reminded of the SCF every morning

Dylan,

The watch (depending on platinum, gold, or titanium) starts at $50,000. That if you can find one. Really limited production.

Thanks. Phoebe is a great dog. The Dub is not mine. But she is a dream I hope to realize. That one is a 56. You can tell from the Front Turn Signals.

Pav. . .I love WV's. I have about 75 of them .. . Hot Wheels and Corgi Toys. Someday, I will own the Perfect Classic VW Vert.

The cloud of joy. Wonderful, fred!

I miss the word 'sex' in it though . Don't know how big it should be.

Finishing the exam season. sweet sweet relief. Now i can get wasted when ever i have the cash

Stinkie

I'm guessing your folks ain't using that app Igor's parents got.

remus

Nope, fortunately not. Although the getting wasted part was a bit of an exaggeration, that only happens at birthdays and arbitrary special occasions of my choosing.

Cranky Geeks.

Homestar Runner, et. al.

lol. Careful, young man. Nasty drug. Had a neighbour once who drank himself to death in two years time. Shame, he was a sweet bloke. Not cut out for this planet, I guess.

I used to work at a wine merchant's, back when I wasn't independently wealthy yet. It's surprising how many people drink more than is good for 'em. One thing I learned there. Another thing: lift with your legs!

I think I'm gonna have me a wee single malt now. It's bad for ya (causes cancer), but it tastes so fine! I might have me a cigar too. Girlfriend's in Holland - I can stink up the place.

A votre santé.

Companies who manage to seem small and personal, despite the potential for being large and faceless. Giving their employees the power to think and make decisions for themselves also helps.
