There is a belief (and also a movie, can you believe this, which I will be reviewing at my movie review blog tomorrow)that everyone is separated by six degrees of separation.

The trick is to find the right degrees in which you are separated. For instance, I did not know that I was only separated from Tun Mahathir, former Prime Minister of Malaysia by only 3 degrees.

Me <----> my boss <----> Marina Mahathir <----> Tun Mahathir

I think that's just awesome!

I'm sure if I look hard enough, I probably know someone who knows someone who knows someone who is BFF with Barrack Obama. Woo woo!

Anyway, because this blog is going to be written by two Malaysians and two Americans who somehow managed to become friends... I thought that the saying seemed appropriate as the new moniker for our new joint blog.

I just chose to call it "The Six Degrees of Fahrenheit" because it sounded way cooler and I have a talent of taking something meaningful just to render it complete nonsense.

.... and only the Americans use Fahrenheit just cause they have the inane need to be different (ok, Belize uses Fahrenheit too but who cares about Belize?)

So there you have it, the history of this day-old blog in 30 seconds or less.... probably less.
