A long, long time ago... before I even had a blog I found this somewhere (unfortunately I don't remember where it was... sorry) I loved this list so much that I decided to print it and put it on my office wall. Well, since than I don't have a real office box anymore (not sad!!! :) and just found the list in my archives again. Get a cup of tea/coffee/whatever and read it! It's worth it I promise! :)
