I’m doing a little project on ’sensory happiness’ and I was wondering if you could help.
Basically I am wondering if there are any things [excluding family and friends] that are guaranteed to give you a sense of inner happiness each and everytime you come into contact with them.
This sense of happiness could be a byproduct of feeling content, safe or calm - it doesn’t matter - I just want to see what natural elements help people feel on an emotional high.
One of the main ones for me is when I walk down to my house in Balmain late at night … everything is quiet, the stars are shining brightly and the scent of jacaranda from the overhanging trees is in full ‘bloom’.
When those things all come together, I can’t help but feel good - and even if I get to my door in a matter of steps - the sensation stays with me for much longer.
Right, that’s me … what about you?

As found in a box of DVD’s I received from Amazon!
How scary is it that America is spending so much on weaponary that they have to go cap in hand to the World for phones so their soldiers can stay in contact with their loved ones.
I’m just shocked they didn’t approach Nokia and claim it could bring their ‘CONNECTING PEOPLE’ positioning to life - or at the very least, give them the chance to get rid of their shite N95 phones

Comment … who are spending the next 4 days with me in Thailand as part of the Asia-Pac MediaWorks training scheme.
[Even more amazing, it's me that's doing part of the training, not the other way round!]
If I can get 50% of them saying ‘toptastic’ by the time they leave, I will regard it as a success though I appreciate they might have a different opinion.
[Given last time I did this event I got everyone to say how much they loved Sacrum, I welcome any suggestions for what you want me to try and get them to do this time]

Comment So I was walking past a bus shelter in Singapore when I saw this ‘ad’ talking about the Italian Festival that is going to happen soon …
Nothing too much to notice there except for a country known for it’s style, it looks like it was created by the $2 shop, however when I looked closely at the sponsors, I saw this …
Yep, it’s Air France sponsoring the Italian festival in Singapore.
Genius!
I really hope they have a banner at the event that say’s something like …
“ITALY IS FULL OF PERVERTS AND COWARDS, COME TO FRANCE”
Now that would be marketing worth talking about!
