1) Phone companies (even in different countries) are remarkably similar, however, chaos is maintained by using entirely different acronyms for everything.
2) I have realized that I have been pronouncing my co-worker's name, Amber, as "Ahm beh". I also refer to my "Paht neh" for my partner.
3) Kiwi's have freakishly diverse footware fashion sense from barefoot with suit pants to thigh high, bright red, stiletto boots. Both of these fashions can be observed working at the bank.
4) Two cappuccino's make my hands shake. My limit is definitely one.
5) I frequently wonder if I can really publish writing for a living.
6) This exercise makes me think of that Violent Femms song where he counts up to 10.
7) I have more computing power in my phone than the first 5 computers I owned combined.
8) If you could transport my laptop back to World War II, even without the communication functions, it would alter the course of the war.

8.) And life ever after... once they figured out how to use/power it.
9.) Pfft. We have issues recognizing modern technology. Also, I'll never forget the statue found in Greece that the archaeologist thought was a fertility Goddess with many many many breasts. Upon further study, it was agreed that it was actually a chick holding gourds. Must find that article...
10.) Earmuffs. Pink ones with glitter.
2) Yeah, that's a fair approximation of the kiwi accent.
