Hala Gorani: There was Big Foot, why are people wondering if he exists? We just saw him there.
Richard Quest: I'm sorry?

One entire week with Alison Bell... I'm not going on and on about how I hate the fact that she always smiling in inappropriate times, that she tries to laugh at everything her co-anchor says and that she tries to carry conversations that don't get anywhere - and she's not Becky, Liz, Richard or Hala to do that.

· After reading one email from a viewer complaining about a woman who was drinking behind Richard and Hala, Hala turns to the newsroom and shouts "Who's guilty of drinking soda pop?"
· Becky(off-camera) and Hala can't stop laughing after a story about a cat who could eat with a fork.
· Becky comes from the newsroom and whispers something to Hala, arianenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3742845.post-867154682002-12-30T20:00:00.000-03:002002-12-30T20:00:25.536-03:00Ok, the thing is, not only did I miss BizNews, but I have no internet today. I can´t close the poll, so I´ll give you a few more days to vote.
Well, a friend was kind enough to tell me what I missed. Thanks Kathy
Yeah, you were right about everything. Alison was on again which was so - well - nice.

Baring in mind that in Britain the retirement age is to go up from 65 to 70 because of pensions. This pension crisis is serious, it's in most of the developed nations, isn't it?
TB: Absolutely. We spend too much and we don't save enough. And when you get to a certain age and you realize it, it's too late.

CNN's Richard Quest was the star among starwatchers with his trenchcoat, red umbrella and booming voice.

«HG» I don't keep a suitcase packed at all times but I usually manage to get ready for trips at lightning speed. If I expect to be away five days, I grab five tops, two or three jackets and up to three pairs of trousers, including an old pair of comfortable jeans. I then throw in a small toiletry bag, which is only for travelling purposes and is ready at all arianenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3742845.post-850058782002-11-24T10:26:00.000-03:002002-11-24T10:26:55.876-03:00Q: You’re a qualified barrister. Why did you pick journalism over law?
«RQ» The choice was pretty simple: what did I want to get to 40 years of age and regret least? I figured I wanted to try and be a top journalist or a foreign correspondent and wouldn’t rest until I’d tried. Journalism and law go very nicely together. Both require anlaysis and the ability to question.

«RQ» I’m a sunworshipper. A beach holiday where I can soak up the rays. My favorite destinations are Sydney or Vancouver. Favorite hotel has to be The Peninsula in Hong Kong.

Q. What essential do you pack, and is there anything you never travel without?
«RQ» Easy. Apart from clean underwear, my electrical cables for charging phones, phone cables for laptop and converters for plugs, anything else can always be bought in extremis. Oh yes, braces for my suit trousers, don’t want to forget those!arianenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3742845.post-848975752002-11-21T21:57:00.000-03:002002-11-21T22:09:06.000-03:00That's so sad, I'm talking with someone about Richard right now on that ICQ thing

But those weeks with Tony were actually very good - I didn't fall in love with him like some people did... The only disturbing thing about him is that he tended to interrupt Hala all the time. Well, Richard does the same thing, but he's already apologizing before he actually cuts her off.

I really appreciate all the emails I've been receiving, please keep them coming (oops, too Michael Holmes?) I'll try to reply all of them tomorrow, but now I have to study Math and try to watch Presidio Med. See you tomorrow.

Hala: I'm a down woman today...
R: You're down?

The program will premier tomorrow and they will also have a Question of the day. Tomorrow's Question will be: Should Europe cut aid to North Korea?
Too bad I won't be at home to watch most of the show.
