‘Non-Smokers die everyday!’
May 9th, 2010 | 
Author: So opined Bill Hicks, the legendary US comedian. A talented guy with humorously cynical views on consumerism/religion/materialism and anything in between.

Speaking of suckers, Al Gore recently purchased a 9 million dollar home with 6 fireplaces, 9 wash rooms, huge swimming pool etc. Al probably did not factor in the ‘inconvenient truth’ of the carbon footprint of that 6500 sq ft home.

Reboot!
After an extended hiatus, when visitors were treated to the sublime ‘under construction’ notice, I have decided to reboot this site. I’m not sure why its tough to let go of this domain, given that its been stagnant for over three years…maybe vanity? However, jacobv.com has been around for almost a decade now, it was also my first foray into web design…so I guess nostalgia too?
In its new/latest avataar (yes that’s the correct spelling… you Hollywood sheeple), the site will be in a blog format. What will it contain? Well all of us (including yours truly) will find out soon enough. Probably a bit of all the things that interest me including online marketing, entrepreneurship, digital art (3d/2d), photography, books, politics, films etc.
Maybe a three year break warrants some sort of lengthy explanation, but then again consider that I did not say much in the past three years either 
. So on we go…
