Prins Philip var en fornuftig kar. En historie fra en venn av meg:
"Years back I was keynoting some huge ICT gig in the IBM South Bank building. Philip was opening and introducing me. As he read my topic he said something like “ sounds jolly interesting - d’you mind if I tag along & listen?” Cue complete panic from his team as no doubt he was on a tight schedule that didn’t include 45 mins of me. Anyway he stayed interested and as we came to questions he naturally enough joined me at the podium. First Q was from some bloke who had been obsessed with giving every kid identical tech - same laptops, software, everything. I’d been (of course!) publicly opposed to this and he’d been stalking me to flog his daft idea at every event. He was part way through his question when Philip interrupted: “every child doing the same? Everything the same? Bloody stupid idea - it’d be like herding cats. Next question”
Veldig trist. Det var aldri en Lørdag uten Hallo i Uken, disse programmene var høydepunkter i uka. Tenker ofte på hvor gode programmer de kunne laget i dag slik verden er blitt.
- Jeg har lært masse av Else. Og, som jeg heldigvis også har sagt til henne; jeg er veldig glad for at hun var en av mine første sjefer, slik at jeg i mange år gikk rundt og trodde at sjefer faktisk er sånn, sier Are Kalvø til Dagbladet.
For de som ikke kjenner igjen navnet er det hun som spilte "Askepott" i julefilmen "Tre nøtter til Askepott".
Med andre ord en person som i mange år har hatt en innflytelse på norske familiers julefeiring.
Hun spilte i Kolja og i "Min lille landsby". Kolja fikk vel Oscar og "Min lille landsby" (Vesnicko má stredisková) var Oscarnominert. En aldeles fantastisk søt liten film.

Trane: Det er resultatet av digitalisering, det..og dertil endrede medievaner. Samme som digitalistene våres gjør med fysiske platesjapper. Direkte skammelig..Det er tross alt kun fysiske formater som støtter artister/forfattere. Så her planlegges årets største raid om etpar dager.
Before the road accident that changed his life at the age of 43, Frank Williams typified the breed of fast-living, almost pathologically competitive alpha males who had graduated from the mostly amateur world of postwar British motor racing to dominate the sport at its highest level.
When Williams, who has died aged 79, lost the use of all four limbs after crashing a rental car while speeding from a circuit in southern France to a nearby airport one evening in the spring of 1986, his career as the driving force of a championship-winning Formula One team appeared to be over.
For several days he hovered on the brink of death. But tetraplegia was to prove no match for the will of a man devoted to winning, often against the odds. Thirteen years later, having added seven more constructors’ world championships and five more drivers’ titles to the pair of each secured by his team before the accident, he was knighted for his services to motor sport. The men who won the world title at the wheel of his cars were Alan Jones, Keke Rosberg, Nelson Piquet, Nigel Mansell, Alain Prost, Damon Hill and Jacques Villeneuve.
